Poiretia is a genus of predatory air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Spiraxidae.
The distribution of the genus Poiretia is an area from Algeria and Italy to the Caucasus. [3]
Species within the genus Poiretia include:
The Felinae are a subfamily of the family Felidae. This subfamily comprises the small cats having a bony hyoid, because of which they are able to purr but not roar.
Isospora is a genus of internal parasites in the subclass Coccidia.
Neosodon was a genus of sauropod dinosaur from the Late Tithonian-age Upper Jurassic Sables et Gres a Trigonia gibbosa of Départment du Pas-de-Calais, France. It has never been formally given a species name, but is often seen as N. praecursor, which actually comes from a different animal. Often in the past, it had been assigned to the wastebasket taxon Pelorosaurus, but restudy has suggested that it could be related to Turiasaurus, a roughly contemporaneous giant Spanish sauropod. It is only known from six teeth.
Scutus is a genus of large sea snails or limpets with the common name "shield shells". These are marine gastropod molluscs in the family Fissurellidae, the keyhole limpets and slit limpets.
Planorbidae, common name the ramshorn snails or ram's horn snails, is a family of air-breathing freshwater snails, aquatic pulmonate gastropod molluscs. Unlike most molluscs, the blood of ram's horn snails contains iron-based hemoglobin instead of copper-based hemocyanin. As a result, planorbids are able to breathe oxygen more efficiently than other molluscs. The presence of hemoglobin gives the body a reddish colour. This is especially apparent in albino animals.
Testacella is genus of small to medium-large, predatory, air-breathing, land slugs.
Jean Louis Marie Poiret was a French clergyman, botanist, and explorer.
Theba is a taxonomic genus of air-breathing land snails, medium-sized pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Helicidae, the true snails.
Thiaridae, common name thiarids or trumpet snails, is a family of tropical freshwater snails with an operculum, aquatic gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Cerithioidea.
Spiraxidae is a family of predatory air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropods in the superfamily Testacelloidea.
Entemnotrochus is a genus of large to very large deepwater sea snails with gills and an operculum, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Pleurotomariidae, the slit snails.
Tudorella is a genus of land snails, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Pomatiidae.
Stenomelania is a genus of freshwater snails with a gill and an operculum, aquatic gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Thiarinae of the family Thiaridae known as thiarids.
Poiretia algira is a species of land snail in the family Spiraxidae.
Piabucus is a genus of freshwater tetras in the family Iguanodectidae. All three species are found in South America, largely the Amazon and its major tributaries. None of them are longer than half a foot long, with the largest reaching a maximum size of 12.9 cm (5.1 in), and they are slender, with relatively deep chests and long pectoral fins. Their scales are pale or silvery, with lateral lines that stand out.
Pervushovisaurus is a genus of platypterygiine ichthyosaur from the Late Cretaceous (Cenomanian) of the Saratov region in western Russia, the La Penthiève Beds of France and the Cambridge area of the UK.
Stenomelania aspirans is a species of freshwater snail, an aquatic gastropod mollusc in the family Thiaridae.
Eocithara is an extinct genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks, in the family Harpidae.
Phacoides is a genus of bivalves belonging to the family Lucinidae.
Genettinae is a subfamily of the feliform viverrids. It contains all of the genet species and the oyan species.
