Plocamopherus margaretae is a species of sea slug, a nudibranch, a shell-less marine gastropod mollusk in the family Polyceridae.
"In life, the body shape is elongate and anteriorly rounded. The oral veil is wide, flattened and fringed. The oral tentacles are flat. Plocamopherus margaretae has a pink or red background color heavily speckled all over the body with large white spots and black, almost oval spots. The white spots are of various sizes and are regularly scattered on the notum. The black spots appear always surrounded by white, and are much fewer than the white spots. A yellow-orange line runs along the margin of the foot, the margin of the oral veil and the margin of the keel. The rhinophores are yellow-pink for their whole length. At the tip of the clavus there is a short white line. The rhinophoral sheath is the same background color as the body and is short with its margin lined by white and yellow pigment. There are three pairs of lateral appendages, which are rounded and form prominent globular structures. These globular structures are much larger in the posterior most pair of appendages. The anterior pairs are very short and rounded. All are pink-yellowish in color. There are three tripinnate branchial leaves that each insert separately into the dorsum. The posterior portion of the foot forms a well-developed elongated keel that is slightly fringed in its upper margin." [1]
This species was described from Myanmar. It has also been reported from Dubai. [1]

Hypolimnas misippus, the Danaid eggfly, mimic, or diadem, is a widespread species of nymphalid butterfly. It is well known for polymorphism and mimicry. Males are blackish with distinctive white spots that are fringed in blue. Females are in multiple forms that include male-like forms while others closely resemble the toxic butterflies Danaus chrysippus and Danaus plexippus.
The Indian fritillary is a species of butterfly of the nymphalid or brush-footed family. It is usually found from south and southeast Asia to Australia.
Triops longicaudatus is a freshwater crustacean of the order Notostraca, resembling a miniature horseshoe crab. It is characterized by an elongated, segmented body, a flattened shield-like brownish carapace covering two thirds of the thorax, and two long filaments on the abdomen. The genus name Triops comes from Greek ὤψ or ṓps, meaning "eye" prefixed with Latin tri-, "three", in reference to its three eyes. Longicaudatus is an Latin neologism combining longus ("long") and caudatus ("tailed"), referring to its long tail structures. Triops longicaudatus is found in fresh water ponds and pools, often in places where few higher forms of life can exist.
Gangara lebadea, commonly known as the banded redeye, is a species of hesperid butterfly found in Southeast Asia.
Fiona pinnata, common name Fiona, is a species of small pelagic nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusk in the superfamily Fionoidea. This nudibranch species lives worldwide on floating objects on seas, and feeds mainly on barnacles, specifically goose barnacles in the genus Lepas.
Procaris hawaiana is a species of shrimp in the family Procarididae, from Maui, Hawaii. The species is very similar to Procaris ascensionis from Ascension Island. In P. ascensionis the integument is less firm, the rostrum is shorter, the cervical groove is more distinct, and the third abdominal somite reaches less far posteriorly over the fourth; also the scaphocerite has the final tooth still less distinct than in P. hawaiana, and the last segment of its antennal peduncle is less slender.
Plocamopherus lemur is a species of sea slug, a nudibranch, a shell-less marine gastropod mollusk in the family Polyceridae.
Plocamopherus maculapodium is a species of sea slug, a nudibranch, a shell-less marine gastropod mollusk in the family Polyceridae.

Kaloplocamus dokte is a species of sea slug, a nudibranch, a shell-less marine gastropod mollusk in the family Polyceridae.
Kaloplocamus peludo is a species of sea slug, a nudibranch, a shell-less marine gastropod mollusk in the family Polyceridae.
Kaloplocamus maru is a species of sea slug, a nudibranch, a shell-less marine gastropod mollusk in the family Polyceridae.
Odonata are insects with an incomplete metamorphosis (hemimetabolous). The aquatic larva or nymph hatches from an egg, and develops through eight to seventeen instars before leaving the water and emerging as the winged adult or imago.
Supramontana irritata is a species of Brazilian land planarian in the subfamily Geoplaninae. It is the type species of the genus Supramontana.
Helophilus lapponicus, the Yellow-margined Marsh Fly, is a common species of syrphid fly observed across northern North America, northern Europe, Greenland and Siberia. Hoverflies can remain nearly motionless in flight. The adults are also known as flower flies for they are commonly found on flowers, from which they get both energy-giving nectar and protein-rich pollen. Though common the larvae of this species are not known but the larvae of other species in this genus are associated with wet decaying organic material, particularly accumulations of decaying vegetation in ponds and mud and are a so called rat-tailed type.
Sphiximorpha willistoni, or Williston's wasp fly, is a rare species of syrphid fly found in eastern North America. It is a strong wasp mimic. Hoverflies can remain nearly motionless in flight. The adults are also known as flower flies for they are commonly found on flowers, from which they get both energy-giving nectar and protein-rich pollen. Larvae in this genus are found in sap runs of trees.
Volvarina pacificotica is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Marginellidae, the margin snails.
