Mycetina hornii is a species of handsome fungus beetle in the family Endomychidae. It is found in North America. [1] [2] [3]
Geotrupes is a genus of earth-boring scarab beetles in the family Geotrupidae. There are at least 30 described species in Geotrupes.
Bathybates hornii is a species of fish in the family Cichlidae. It is endemic to Lake Tanganyika where it forms schools and feeds mainly on clupeids. This species is apparently rather rare. It is little known and it is normally recorded from deep water during the day and moves towards the shorelines at night. The identity of the person honoured in this fish's specific name is uncertain but it is likely to be either, or both, of the Horn brothers, Adolf or Albin, who explored German East Africa and collected specimens for the Vienna Museum where the describer Franz Steindachner was curator of fishes.
Nasa hornii is a species of plant in the Loasaceae family. It is endemic to Ecuador. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests.
Nasa is a genus of plants in the family Loasaceae containing over 100 known species, all of which are found in South America with the exception of two species endemic to Central America. They are common in submontane to montane environments.
Endomychidae, or handsome fungus beetles, is a family of beetles with representatives found in all biogeographic realms. There are around 120 genera and 1300 species. The family was established based on the type genus Endomychus, a genus erected in 1795 by Panzer which was applied to a species that Linnaeus called Chrysomela coccinea. As the common name suggests, Endomychidae feed on fungi. Crowson, in his influential treatment of the beetles, placed the family within the Cucujoidea. They have a tarsal formal of 4-4-4 or 3-3-3 and the wings lack a closed radial cell. The second antennal segment has a sensory appendage that is as long as the third antennal segment. The family has also been grouped with the Coccinellidae in a group called the Trimera for having pseudotrimerous tarsi. A 2015 molecular phylogeny study found that the Cucujoidea were found to be non-monophyletic and the Endomychidae was refined with the removal of the Anamorphinae from within the family and elevated to the status of a full family, Anamorphidae. Mycetaeinae and Eupsilobiinae were also found not to belong within the clades of the core Endomychidae, and likewise reclassified into the families Mycetaeidae and Eupsilobiidae.
