Odontella cornifer is a species of springtail in the family Odontellidae. [1] [2] [3]
Convolvulaceae, commonly called the bindweeds or morning glories, is a family of about 60 genera and more than 1,650 species. These species are primarily herbaceous vines, but also include trees, shrubs and herbs. The tubers of several species are edible, the best known of which is the sweet potato.
Cetraria is a genus of fruticose, Iceland lichens that associate with green algae as photobionts. Most species are found at high latitudes, occurring on sand or heath. Species have a characteristic "strap-like" form, with spiny lobe edges.
The minute tree-fungus beetles, family Ciidae, are a sizeable group of beetles which inhabit Polyporales bracket fungi or coarse woody debris. Most numerous in warmer regions, they are nonetheless widespread and a considerable number of species occur as far polewards as Scandinavia for example.
Eupodiscaceae is a diatom family (Bacillariophyceae) present both in marine and freshwater habitats Odontella is the only genera in this family with typical marine species. However, Round et al. (1990) placed Odontella in Triceratiaceae (Schutt) Lemmermann, order Triceratiales Round and Crawford, subclass Biddulphiophycidae Round and Crawford. The taxonomic status of this family is unclear and disputed.
Odontella aurita is a diatom and the type species of genus Odontella. The easiest way to identify this species is by recognizing the very distinct shape of the cells belonging to this genus. Odontella aurita is cultivated industrially for human consumption due to its ability to produce up to 28% of its total lipids as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), a long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA). PUFAs such as EPA are known to provide a variety of health benefits in humans, and are commonly obtained by fish oil. However, with the increasing concern of over-exploited fisheries, microalgae are a promising source of PUFAs as they can be grown year-round and their fatty acid profile and content are easily manipulated by growth conditions.
Hirculops cornifer, the highbrow rockskipper, is a species of combtooth blenny found in the western Indian ocean. This species reaches a length of 6 centimetres (2.4 in) SL. This species is the only known member of its genus.
Himantolophus cornifer is a species of footballfish, a type of anglerfish. The fish is bathypelagic and can be found at depths ranging from 0 to 1,900 metres. It has been found in the Indian, Pacific, and Atlantic Oceans.
Halticotoma is a genus of plant bugs in the family Miridae. There are about six described species in Halticotoma.
Mallota bequaerti is a species of syrphid fly in the family Syrphidae.
Aradus acutus is a species of flat bug in the family Aradidae. It is found in North America.
Odontellidae is a family of springtails in the order Poduromorpha. There are about 9 genera and more than 50 described species in Odontellidae.
Psorophora longipalpus is a species of mosquito in the family Culicidae.
