Helenoconcha is a genus of small air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Charopidae endemic to the island of Saint Helena, hence the genetic epithet. All species save for H. relicta, are extinct.
Species within the genus Helenoconcha include:
The blue seedeater, or Cabanis's seedeater, is a species of bird in the cardinal family Cardinalidae that is found in southern Mexico and Central America. The Ecuadorian seedeater was formerly considered as a subspecies.
Myonycteris is a genus of bat in the family Pteropodidae.
The East African little collared fruit bat is a species of megabat in the family Pteropodidae. It is found in Kenya, Tanzania, and Zimbabwe. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests and moist savanna.
†Helenoconcha leptalea is an extinct species of small air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Charopidae.
Helenoconcha minutissima is an extinct species of gastropod in the family Charopidae. It was endemic to Saint Helena.
†Helenoconcha polyodon was a species of small air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Charopidae.
†Helenoconcha pseustes was a species of small air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Charopidae.
†Helenoconcha sexdentata was a species of small air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Charopidae.
The Florida crowned snake is a species of colubrid snake found in Florida and Georgia. It is a small, slender, non-venomous snake that is rarely seen. The species is commonly found in north and central Florida, and is most often associated with sandy habitats.
Crowsoniella is a genus of beetles in the order Archostemata. It contains only a single species, Crowsoniella relicta, and is the only member of the monotypic family Crowsoniellidae. It is known only from three male specimens collected in 1973 in the Lepini mountains of central Italy by Roberto Pace. In a degraded pasture, the beetles were found among the roots of a large hawthorn tree, in deep calcareous soil. No other specimens have been found since.
Decliniidae is a family of beetles belonging to Scirtoidea. It contains the single genus Declinia with two species, D. relicta and D. versicolor, found in the Russian Far East and Japan, respectively. Little is known of their ecology, and their larvae are unknown. Specimens of D. relicta were found with pollen grains in their gut.
Charimachilis is a genus of the family Machilidae which belongs to the insect order Archaeognatha. They are found in southern and eastern Europe.
The Ammonite Snail is a species of small air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Charopidae. The species is endemic to Saint Helena Island, and is the only Helenoconcha species remaining.
Iris marsica is a plant species in the genus Iris, it is also in the subgenus Iris. It is a rhizomatous perennial, from the Apennine Mountains, in Italy. It has glaucous, sickle-shaped or curved, light green leaves, slender stem with 2 branches, and 3 violet, light blue violet, dark violet, and dark purple flowers. It was only found and described since 1973, and is not yet in general cultivation. It was once thought to be a form of Iris germanica, but has different morphological characteristics and different chromosomal differences.
Iris relicta is a plant species within the genus Iris, and it belongs to the subgenus Iris as well. This rare rhizomatous perennial originates from the mountains of Italy. It is of medium size, bearing purple flowers adorned with white beards. While it is seldom cultivated as an ornamental plant in temperate regions, its history has been perplexing. Initially mistaken as a variety of Iris germanica, it was later recognized as a distinct species, though it shared a name with another bearded iris. The clarification of its taxonomy only occurred in 1996.
