Onychogomphus macrodon, also known as the Levant pincertail, [1] [2] [3] is a species of dragonfly in the family Gomphidae. [1] [4]
Onychogomphus macrodon was first described in 1887 by Edmond de Sélys Longchamps in Beirut. [5] Its common name, Levant pincertail, references the geographic region in which it is found, the Levant.
Onychogomphus macrodon is found in Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, and Turkey. Its natural habitat is wetlands and freshwater rivers. Due to contemporary increases in the development of energy production and water management infrastructure, it is threatened by habitat loss. [1]
The mountain gazelle, also called the true gazelle or the Palestine mountain gazelle, is a species of gazelle that is widely but unevenly distributed.
Van Gelder's bat or Van Gelder's big-eared bat is a species of vesper bat in the family Vespertilionidae. It is found in Belize, Costa Rica, Honduras, and Mexico. The species is monotypic within its genus. It is part of the tribe Antrozoini within the subfamily Vespertilioninae and is related to the pallid bat. The bat is found in forest habitat from sea level to elevations as high as 2300 m, although not usually above 1300 m, and is insectivorous and crepuscular. It apparently has a fragmented distribution, and is threatened by deforestation.
The fanged river frog, Javan giant frog, Malaya wart frog, or stone creek frog is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae endemic to Sumatra and Java, Indonesia. Records from other regions are probably caused by misidentifying other species such as Limnonectes blythii as this species.
Limnonectes shompenorum is a species of frog in the family Dicroglossidae. It is found in Great Nicobar Island (India), its type locality, and in western Sumatra (Indonesia). It is similar to Limnonectes macrodon. The name refers to Shompen people, the indigenous people of the interior of Great Nicobar Island.
The Caucasian squirrel or Persian squirrel, is a tree squirrel in the genus Sciurus found in temperate broadleaf and mixed forests in south-western Asia.
The large-toothed shrew or Mexican large-toothed shrew is one of 77 species within the genus Sorex. Registered on the IUCN Red List as vulnerable with a decreasing population, the Mexican large-toothed shrew has been recorded only 14 times in seven locations. The shrew is a member of the red-toothed shrew subfamily Soricinae, and the more taxonomically defined tribe Soricini. Members of the latter category exhibit long tails relative to body size.
Schneider's leaf-nosed bat or Schneider's roundleaf bat is a species of bat in the family Hipposideridae. It is endemic to South Asia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests, caves, and urban areas.
Coenagrion syriacum is a species of damselfly in the family Coenagrionidae. It is found in Israel, Lebanon, Syria, and Turkey. Its natural habitats are swamps, freshwater marshes, ponds, and canals and ditches. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Gomphus davidi is a species of dragonfly in the family Gomphidae. It is found in Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, and Turkey. Its natural habitats are swamps, freshwater marshes, ponds, and canals and ditches. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Onychogomphus assimilis is a species of dragonfly in the family Gomphidae. It is found in Armenia, Georgia, Iran, Turkey, and Turkmenistan. Its natural habitat is rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Onychogomphus is a genus of dragonflies in the family Gomphidae. They are commonly known as pincertails.
Onychogomphus costae is a species of dragonfly in the family Gomphidae. It is found in Algeria, Morocco, Portugal, Spain, and Tunisia. Its natural habitat is rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Onychogomphus kitchingmani is a species of dragonfly in the family Gomphidae. It is endemic to Zambia. Its natural habitat is rivers.
Onychogomphus styx is a species of dragonfly in the family Gomphidae. It is found in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and possibly Guinea. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Tramea is a genus of dragonflies in the family Libellulidae, the skimmers and perchers. Species of Tramea are found in tropical and subtropical regions around the globe. They typically have colored bases to their otherwise translucent hindwings. In particular when they fly, this creates the impression of their carrying bags at the start of their abdomens. They are known commonly as saddlebags or saddlebags gliders.
Onychogomphus forcipatus, the small pincertail, green-eyed hooktail, or green-eyed hook-tailed dragonfly, is a species of dragonfly belonging to the family Gomphidae.
Melligomphus acinaces is a species of dragonfly in the family Gomphidae. It is endemic to the streams of Western Ghats of India. This species was originally described as a Onychogomphus. However, both the pattern and the shape of the anal appendages do not fit Onychogomphus but are very close to those of the species placed in Melligomphus.
Onychogomphus malabarensis is a species of dragonfly in the family Gomphidae. It is endemic to the streams of Western Ghats of India.
Humboldt's squirrel monkey is a species of squirrel monkey from Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Venezuela. It had previously been considered a subspecies of the common squirrel monkey, S. scuireus, but was elevated to full species status based on a genetic study by Carretero-Pinzón in 2009. A genetic study by Jessica Lynch Alfaro, et al indicated that the Ecuadorian squirrel monkey may be synonymous with Saimiri cassiquiarensis. As of 2018, the Ecuadorian squirrel monkey is generally regarded as a subspecies of Humboldt's squirrel monkey, S. cassiquiarensis macrodon.
Macrodon is a genus of marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the family Sciaenidae, the drums and croakers. These fishes are found in the eastern Pacific and western Atlantic Oceans.
