The American goldfinch is a small North American bird in the finch family. It is migratory, ranging from mid-Alberta to North Carolina during the breeding season, and from just south of the Canada–United States border to Mexico during the winter.
Goldfinch or The Goldfinch may refer to:
The common chiffchaff, or simply the chiffchaff, is a common and widespread leaf warbler which breeds in open woodlands throughout northern and temperate Europe and the Palearctic.
The grey crow, formerly known as the bare-faced crow, is about the same size as the Eurasian carrion crow but has somewhat different proportions and quite atypical feather pigmentation during the juvenile phase for a member of this genus.
A crow is a bird of the genus Corvus, or more broadly a synonym for all of Corvus. The word "crow" is used as part of the common name of species including:
Coreidae is a large family of predominantly sap-suckling insects in the Hemipteran suborder Heteroptera. The name "Coreidae" derives from the genus Coreus, which derives from the Ancient Greek κόρις (kóris) meaning bedbug.
Erynnis is a genus in the skippers butterfly family Hesperiidae, known as the duskywings. Erynnis is found in the Neotropical realm and across the Palearctic, but the highest species diversity is in the Nearctic. The genus was erected by Franz von Paula Schrank in 1801.
The buff-rumped woodpecker is a species of bird in the family Picidae. It is found in southern Myanmar, Thailand, Malaya, Java, Sumatra and Borneo. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forests and subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests.
Eugeissona is a clustering genus of flowering plant in the palm family native to Borneo, Thailand and Malaysia. The six monoecious species provide a wide range of local uses and are commonly called bertam or wild Bornean sago. The genus is the sole representative of the Eugeissoninae having very few obvious relatives; the hermaphrodite and staminate flowers are also found in Metroxylon, however the other specialized characteristics are unique suggesting an early split and differentiation from other members of the Calameae. Fossilized pollen belonging to these plants has been recovered in the lower and middle Miocene deposits in Sarawak. The name is from two Greek words meaning "good" and "roof", due to their common use in roof thatching.
Plectreuridae, also called plectreurid spiders, is a small spider family confined to the Southwestern United States, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Only two living genera are known—the nominate genus Plectreurys and Kibramoa. In the past, the family was more widespread, with the Jurassic genus Eoplectreurys known from China, the Eocene Palaeoplectreurys baltica from Baltic amber and the Miocene Plectreurys pittfieldi from Dominican amber.
Zopherus is a genus of beetles comprising 19 species. They live in the Americas and are adapted to wood-boring. Some species are used as living brooches.
Anhypotrix tristis is a moth of the family Noctuidae first described by William Barnes and James Halliday McDunnough in 1910. It is found from eastern Arizona and northern New Mexico southward in the Sierra Madre Occidental to the state of Durango in Mexico.
In the 10th edition of Systema Naturae, Carl Linnaeus classified the arthropods, including insects, arachnids and crustaceans, among his class "Insecta". Insects with hardened wing covers were brought together under the name Coleoptera.
Phlyctaenodini is a tribe of beetles in the subfamily Cerambycinae that includes the following genera and species.
Lepturonota tristis is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Xavier Montrouzier in 1861, originally under the genus Leptonota.
Herophila tristis is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae, they are also called longhorned beetles. It was described by Carl Linnaeus in 1767, originally under the genus Cerambyx. It is known from Italy, Romania, Austria, Bulgaria, Crete, Croatia, Sardinia, France, Greece, Serbia, Corsica, Sicily, Hungary, Slovenia, Albania, and Turkey. It feeds on Morus alba, Ficus carica, and Robinia pseudoacacia. They live 2-3 years and are 13 - 26 mm long. Larvae feed under the bark of a range of broad-leaved trees, mostly Ficus carica commonly known as fig trees. As an adult they hide in the day and come out in the dusk.
Ortalis is an historic genus of Ulidiid or picture-winged flies, first described by Fallén in 1810. It served as the type genus for the family Ulidiidae, which was called Ortalidae at the time. In 1932, it was pointed out by Adlrich that the name Ortalis was preoccupied by a genus of birds which had been named by Merrem in 1786. The name of the fly family was therefore revised, with some authors calling it Otitidae until Ulidiidae was settled on as standard. The genus itself was found to be paraphyletic, and all of its species have been reassigned to other genera, some in the Ulidiidae, and some in other Tephritoid families. In the following list, the species are organized according to the families and genera to which they have been reassigned.
Erynnis tristis, the mournful duskywing, is a species of spread-wing skipper in the butterfly family Hesperiidae. It is found in Central America, North America, and South America.
Silpha tristis is a species of carrion beetle in the family Silphidae. It is found in Europe & Northern Asia and North America. It was described in 1798 by the German entomologist Illiger.
Varanus (Odatria), sometimes known as the dwarf monitor lizards, is a subgenus of small monitor lizards found in Australia and Indonesia. Species in this subgenus include the smallest monitor species in the world, the tiny 16 gram Dampier Peninsula monitor, but also includes some more medium sized species such as the 240 gram black-palmed rock monitor.
