Species include: [2]
Gyps is a genus of Old World vultures that was proposed by Marie Jules César Savigny in 1809. Its members are sometimes known as griffon vultures. Gyps vultures have a slim head, a long slender neck with downy feathers, and a ruff around the neck formed by long buoyant feathers. The crown of their big beaks is a little compressed, and their big dark nostrils are set transverse to the beak. They have six or seven wing feathers, of which the first is the shortest and the fourth the longest.
Marie Jules César Lelorgne de Savigny was a French zoologist and naturalist who served on Emperor Napoleon's Egypt expedition in 1798. He published descriptions of numerous taxa and was among the first to propose that the mouth-parts of insects are derived from the jointed legs of segmented arthropods.
Campodea is a genus of small, white, bristle-tailed arthropods in the order Diplura. The best known species, Campodea staphylinus, has a wide distribution across much of Europe. It lives in damp places under stones, fallen trees, or in rotten wood and leaves. Although blind, it immediately crawls away on exposure to the light into the nearest crevice or other sheltered spot, feeling the way with its antennae. There are at least 130 described species in Campodea.
Schinia, commonly called flower moths, is a large genus of moths belonging to the family Noctuidae. The genus has a Holarctic distribution with the vast majority of species being found in North America, many with a very restricted range and larval food plant.
Pectinaria is a genus of sand tube-building annelid fanworms in the family Pectinariidae.
Caseolus commixtus is a species of small air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Geomitridae.
Fauna Europaea is a database of the scientific names and distribution of all living multicellular European land and fresh-water animals. It serves as a standard taxonomic source for animal taxonomy within the Pan-European Species directories Infrastructure (PESI). As of June 2020, Fauna Europaea reported that their database contained 235,708 taxon names and 173,654 species names.
Nebria is a genus of ground beetles native to the Palearctic, the Near East and North Africa. There are more than 500 described species in Nebria.
Clivina is a genus of ground beetle native to the Palearctic, the Nearctic, the Near East and North Africa. There are more than 600 described species in Clivina.
Rhysodes is a genus of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae native to the Palearctic and the Near East.
Cephalota circumdata is a tiger beetle species in the genus Cephalota that can be found in such European countries as Albania, Bulgaria, France, Greece, Italy, North Macedonia, Romania, Spain, Ukraine, and on the islands such as Balearic, Sardinia, and Sicily. It can also be found in African nations of Algeria and Tunisia, and in Turkey.
Coleophora bifrondella is a moth of the family Coleophoridae. It is found in Spain, France and Italy.
Arctia dejeani is a species of moth in the family Erebidae first described by Jean Baptiste Godart in 1822. It is found on the Iberian Peninsula.
Haemopis sanguisuga is a species of freshwater leech in the family Haemopidae. It is commonly called the horse-leech, but that is due to the similarity of its appearance to the leech Limnatis nilotica, which sometimes enters the nasal cavities of livestock. Haemopis sanguisuga does not behave in this way. Another synonym for this leech is Aulastomum gulo.
Phyllodocidae is a family of polychaete worms. Worms in this family live on the seabed and may burrow under the sediment.
Allolobophora is a genus of annelids belonging to the family Lumbricidae.
Neanthes is a genus of polychaetes belonging to the family Nereididae.
Haemopidae is a family of leeches belonging to the order Arhynchobdellida.
Orbinia is a genus of polychaetes belonging to the family Orbiniidae.
