Dicyrtomina saundersi is a species of springtail in the genus Dicyrtomina . [1] [2]
The species appears as a plump springtail with a reddish "pine tree" pattern. The species also has two yellow dots on the top of it. The sides of the adults are dark brown. [1] [2] [3]
The little tern is a seabird of the family Laridae. It was first described by the German naturalist Peter Simon Pallas in 1764 and given the binomial name Sterna albifrons. It was moved to the genus Sternula when the genus Sterna was restricted to the larger typical terns. The genus name Sternula is a diminutive of Sterna, 'tern', while the specific name albifrons is from Latin albus, 'white', and frons, 'forehead'.
The explosion of animals is an uncommon event arising from natural causes or human activity. Among the best known examples are the post-mortem explosion of whales, either as a result of natural decomposition or deliberate attempts at carcass disposal. Other instances of exploding animals are defensive in nature or the result of human intervention.
Entomobryidae, sometimes called "slender springtails", is a family of springtails characterised by having an enlarged fourth abdominal segment and a well-developed furcula. Species in this family may be heavily scaled and can be very colourful. The scale-less Entomobryidae are commonly caught in pitfall traps around the planet, and also occur in canopy faunas high up in trees. There are more than 1700 described species in Entomobryidae.
Colobopsis saundersi, also called the Malaysian exploding ant, is a species of ant found in Malaysia and Brunei, belonging to the genus Colobopsis. A worker can explode suicidally and aggressively as an ultimate act of defense, an ability it has in common with several other species in this genus and a few other insects. The ant has an enormously enlarged mandibular gland, many times the size of other ants, which produces adhesive secretions for defense. According to a 2018 study, this species forms a species complex and is probably related to C. explodens, which is part of the C. cylindrica group.
Fulakora saundersi, commonly known as "The New Zealand Michelin ant", is a species of ant within the family Formicidae in the genus Fulakora, found throughout New Zealand.
Saunders's gull or Chinese black-headed gull, is a species of gull in the family Laridae. It is found in China, Japan, North Korea, South Korea, Macau, Russia, Taiwan, and Vietnam. Its natural habitats are estuarine waters and intertidal marshes. As with many other gulls, it has traditionally been placed in the genus Larus, but based on phylogenetic work some have moved it to Chroicocephalus, while others argue it is sufficiently distinct for placement in the monotypic Saundersilarus. In 2023, this transfer was accepted by the International Ornithologists' Union.
Saunders's tern, sometimes known as the black-shafted tern, is a species of bird in the family Laridae. It is sparsely resident along the shores of the north-western Indian Ocean.
Springtails form the largest of the three lineages of modern hexapods that are no longer considered insects. Although the three orders are sometimes grouped together in a class called Entognatha because they have internal mouthparts, they do not appear to be any more closely related to one another than they are to all insects, which have external mouthparts.
Notiophilus aquaticus, the black-legged springtail-stalker, is a species of ground beetle in the family Carabidae. It is found in Europe, Northern Asia, and North America.
Sminthuridae, not to be confounded with: Sminthurididae, is a family of springtails of the order Symphypleona. Sminthurids are commonly referred to as globular springtails.
Orthogonius saundersi is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Orthogoniinae. It was described by Andrewes in 1926.
Clivina saundersi is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Scaritinae. It was described by Andrewes in 1926.
Dicyrtominae is a subfamily of globular springtails in the family Dicyrtomidae. There are at least 3 genera and 30 described species in Dicyrtominae.
Ceratophysella denticulata, the mushroom springtail, is a species of springtails in the family Hypogastruridae.
Dicyrtomina minuta is a species of globular springtails in the family Dicyrtomidae.
Dicyrtomina is a genus of globular springtails in the family Dicyrtomidae..
Crossotarsus saundersi, commonly known as stem borer, is a species of weevil found in Sri Lanka, Australia and New Zealand.
Hemicardiacus is a genus of treehoppers belonging to the family Membracidae. It contains the single species Hemicardiacus saundersi, and is native to Mexico.
Dicyrtomina turbotti is a species of springtail belonging to the family Dicyrtomidae. The species was first described by John Salmon in 1948, and is endemic to Manawatāwhi / Three Kings Islands in New Zealand.
