Pedicellina is a genus of Entoprocta. [1]
A genus of colonial Entoprocta.
From “pedicellus” (small foot in Latin) + “ina”.
Pedicellina contains the following species:
Bryozoa are a phylum of simple, aquatic invertebrate animals, nearly all living in sedentary colonies. Typically about 0.5 millimetres long, they have a special feeding structure called a lophophore, a "crown" of tentacles used for filter feeding. Most marine bryozoans live in tropical waters, but a few are found in oceanic trenches and polar waters. The bryozoans are classified as the marine bryozoans (Stenolaemata), freshwater bryozoans (Phylactolaemata), and mostly-marine bryozoans (Gymnolaemata), a few members of which prefer brackish water. 5,869 living species are known. At least two genera are solitary ; the rest are colonial.
Symbion is a genus of commensal aquatic animals, less than 0.5 mm wide, found living attached to the mouthparts of cold-water lobsters. They have sac-like bodies, and three distinctly different forms in different parts of their two-stage life-cycle. They appear so different from other animals that they were assigned their own, new phylum Cycliophora shortly after they were discovered in 1995. This was the first new phylum of multicelled organism to be discovered since the Loricifera in 1983.
Entoprocta, or Kamptozoa, is a phylum of mostly sessile aquatic animals, ranging from 0.1 to 7 millimetres long. Mature individuals are goblet-shaped, on relatively long stalks. They have a "crown" of solid tentacles whose cilia generate water currents that draw food particles towards the mouth, and both the mouth and anus lie inside the "crown". The superficially similar Bryozoa (Ectoprocta) have the anus outside a "crown" of hollow tentacles. Most families of entoprocts are colonial, and all but 2 of the 150 species are marine. A few solitary species can move slowly.
Lophotrochozoa is a clade of protostome animals within the Spiralia. The taxon was established as a monophyletic group based on molecular evidence. The clade includes animals like annelids, molluscs, bryozoans, brachiopods, and platyhelminthes.
The Spiralia are a morphologically diverse clade of protostome animals, including within their number the molluscs, annelids, platyhelminths and other taxa. The term Spiralia is applied to those phyla that exhibit canonical spiral cleavage, a pattern of early development found in most members of the Lophotrochozoa.
Alucita is the largest genus of many-plumed moths ; it is also the type genus of its family and the disputed superfamily Alucitoidea. This genus occurs almost worldwide and contains about 180 species as of 2011; new species are still being described and discovered regularly. Formerly, many similar moths of superfamilies Alucitoidea, Copromorphoidea and Pterophoroidea were also placed in Alucita.
The biological systematics and taxonomy of invertebrates as proposed by Richard C. Brusca and Gary J. Brusca in 2003 is a system of classification of invertebrates, as a way to classify animals without backbones.
Trapania pallida is a species of sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Goniodorididae.
Trapania aurata is a species of sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Goniodorididae.
Trapania aureopunctata is a species of sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Goniodorididae.
Trapania benni is a species of sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Goniodorididae.
Trapania brunnea is a species of sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Goniodorididae.
Trapania toddi is a species of sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Goniodorididae.
Trapania hispalensis is a species of sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Goniodorididae.
Trapania graeffei is a species of sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Goniodorididae.
The Platytrochozoa are a proposed basal clade of spiralian animals as the sister group of the Gnathifera. The Platytrochozoa were divided into the Rouphozoa and the Lophotrochozoa. A more recent study suggests that the mesozoans also belong to this group of animals, as sister of the Rouphozoa.
The Kryptotrochozoa are a proposed Lophotrochozoa clade. It consists of the Nemertea and Lophophorata. It is controversial.
Urnatella is a genus of primitive animals (Entoprocta) belonging to the family Barentsiidae.
Barentsia is a genus of Entoprocta belonging to the family Barentsiidae.
