Drymaeus eurystomus is a species of tropical air-breathing land snail, a pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Bulimulidae.
Fulton (1905) [3] was the first to realize that Bulimus eurystomus Philippi, 1867 and Bulimus hamadryas Philippi, 1867 are synonyms and only differ in colour pattern. [2]
Philippi is a city in — and the county seat of — Barbour County, West Virginia, United States. The population was 2,966 at the 2010 census. In 1861, the city was the site of the Battle of Philippi, known as the, "Philippi Races." Although a minor skirmish, this is considered the earliest notable land action of the American Civil War.
Rodolfo AmandoPhilippi was a German–Chilean paleontologist and zoologist.
Hamadryas was a nymph, the mother of the hamadryads in Greek mythology, and the name has been used repeatedly in scientific naming and may refer to:
Cracker butterflies are a Neotropical group of medium-sized brush-footed butterfly species of the genus Hamadryas. They acquired their common name due to the unusual way that males produce a "cracking" sound as part of their territorial displays. The most comprehensive work about their ecology and behavior is that of Julian Monge Najera et al. (1998). The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1806.
