Birds are a group of warm-blooded vertebrates constituting the class Aves, characterised by feathers, toothless beaked jaws, the laying of hard-shelled eggs, a high metabolic rate, a four-chambered heart, and a strong yet lightweight skeleton. Birds live worldwide and range in size from the 5.5 cm (2.2 in) bee hummingbird to the 2.8 m common ostrich. There are about ten thousand living species, more than half of which are passerine, or "perching" birds. Birds have wings whose development varies according to species; the only known groups without wings are the extinct moa and elephant birds. Wings, which are modified forelimbs, gave birds the ability to fly, although further evolution has led to the loss of flight in some birds, including ratites, penguins, and diverse endemic island species. The digestive and respiratory systems of birds are also uniquely adapted for flight. Some bird species of aquatic environments, particularly seabirds and some waterbirds, have further evolved for swimming.
Sex is the trait that determines whether a sexually reproducing animal or plant produces male or female gametes. Male plants and animals produce small mobile gametes, while females produce larger, non-motile ones. Organisms that produce both types of gametes are called hermaphrodites. During sexual reproduction, male and female gametes fuse to form zygotes, which develop into offspring that inherit traits from each parent.
The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species, also known as the IUCN Red List or Red Data Book, founded in 1964, is the world's most comprehensive inventory of the global conservation status of biological species. It uses a set of precise criteria to evaluate the extinction risk of thousands of species and subspecies. These criteria are relevant to all species and all regions of the world. With its strong scientific base, the IUCN Red List is recognized as the most authoritative guide to the status of biological diversity. A series of Regional Red Lists are produced by countries or organizations, which assess the risk of extinction to species within a political management unit.
Pyrgus is a genus in the skippers butterfly family, Hesperiidae, known as the grizzled skippers. The name "checkered" or "chequered skipper" may also be applied to some species, but also refers to species in the genera Burnsius and Carterocephalus. They occur in the Holarctic with an additional group of species extending to the Neotropic.
The rosy grizzled skipper is a species of skipper.

Larinus is a genus of true weevils, comprising about 180 species, mostly in the Palaearctic region. Turkey appears to have a significant diversity of the group, with more than 50 species recorded in the Eastern part of the country.
Charles Kerremans was a Belgian entomologist who specialised in Coleoptera, especially Buprestidae and Cicindelidae.
Julodinae is a subfamily of beetles in the family Buprestidae, containing the following genera:
Julodis is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae.
Julodis albomaculata is a species of beetles belonging to the Buprestidae family. This species occurs in Southern Africa.
Julodis cirrosa, common name Brush Jewel Beetle, is a species of beetles belonging to the Buprestidae family. This species occurs in Southern Africa.
Microbotryum is a genus of fungi found in the family Microbotryaceae. It contains 89 species.
Julodis andreae is a species of beetles belonging to the Buprestidae family.
Julodis viridipes is a species of beetle belonging to the Buprestidae family.
Julodis euphratica also known as the Sulphrous jewel beetle or Euphratic jewel beetle, an insect from the order of beetles and a family of whippings. It measures from 29 to 31 mm. It feeds on nectar from wild flowers. The larvae of these beetles live in acacia trees, where they spend the year before pupating and emerging in the early spring to mate. The larval stage lasts about 9 months and the adults live for 3 months. The total lifespan of the beetle from egg to adult and death is approximately a year in length.
Ceratapion onopordi is a species of beetle belonging to the family Brentidae.
