Distorsomina is a genus of medium-sized sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Cymatiidae. The only species within the genus Distorsomina is Distorsomina pusilla. [1]
The semipalmated sandpiper is a very small shorebird. The genus name is from Ancient Greek kalidris or skalidris, a term used by Aristotle for some grey-coloured waterside birds. The specific pusilla is Latin for "very small".
The least big-eared bat is a South American bat species of the family Phyllostomidae, found in northwestern Brazil and eastern Colombia. It is monotypic within its genus.
Photosynthetic picoplankton or picophytoplankton is the fraction of the phytoplankton performing photosynthesis composed of cells between 0.2 and 2 µm in size (picoplankton). It is especially important in the central oligotrophic regions of the world oceans that have very low concentration of nutrients.
Neritina, is a genus of small aquatic snails with an operculum, marine, brackish water, and sometimes freshwater gastropod mollusks in the family Neritidae, the nerites.
Micromonas is a genus of green algae in the family Mamiellaceae.
Cymatiidae is a family of large sea snails in the superfamily Tonnoidea and the order Littorinimorpha. Members of this family are predators.
Tectonatica is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the family Naticidae, the moon snails.
Durvilledoris was a genus of sea slugs, dorid nudibranchs, shell-less marine gastropod mollusks in the family Chromodorididae. This genus has become a synonym of Mexichromis Bertsch, 1977 Although the type species of this genus was transferred to Mexichromis two species were not reallocated nor mentioned in the text.
Mexichromis is a genus of colourful sea slugs, dorid nudibranchs, shell-less marine gastropod mollusks in the family Chromodorididae. Current synonymy follows a revision of Chromodorididae which used molecular phylogeny.
Nassaria is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Nassariidae.
Dikoleps is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Skeneidae.
Distorsio is a genus of medium-sized sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Personidae, the Distortio snails.

Prasinovirus is a genus of large double-stranded DNA viruses, in the family Phycodnaviridae that infect phytoplankton in the Prasinophyceae. There are currently only two species in this genus including the type species Micromonas pusilla virus SP1, that infects the cosmopolitan photosynthetic flagellate Micromonas pusilla. However, there is a large group of genetically diverse but related viruses that show considerable evidence of lateral gene transfer.
Mimoreovirus is a genus of viruses, in the family Reoviridae, in the subfamily Sedoreovirinae. The only isolate infects the marine photosynthetic protist Micromonas pusilla, a prasinophyte. There is currently only one species in this genus: the type species Micromonas pusilla reovirus.
