Sophronica reducta is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Francis Polkinghorne Pascoe in 1888. [1]
Brocchinia reducta is one of few carnivorous bromeliads. It is native to southern Venezuela, Brazil, Colombia, and Guyana, and is found in nutrient-poor soil. B. reducta adapts to different environments, when growing on rocks it uses its roots as anchors.
Brocchinia is a genus of the botanical family Bromeliaceae, and is the sole genus of the subfamily Brocchinioideae, containing 20 species. The genus is named for Giovanni Battista Brocchi, Italian naturalist (1772–1826). Brocchinia species are native primarily to the ancient Guayana Shield in southern Venezuela and Guyana, with some species extending into Colombia and northern Brazil. Its species are generally restricted to areas of sand and sandstone of the Roraima Formation; a few occur on granite.
Paepalanthus bromelioides is a species in the flowering plant family Eriocaulaceae. This family is placed in the Poales, close to the Bromeliaceae, whose morphology this genus shares. Paepalanthus bromelioides is native to Cerrado, the area in which the carnivorous bromeliad Brocchinia reducta is also found. There is some speculation that the occasional insects trapped in the urn of this plant are evidence of its being a carnivorous plant.
Manduca is a genus of moths in the family Sphingidae, the hawkmoths. The genus is used as a model in the biological sciences. The tobacco hornworm and the tomato hornworm in particular have been well studied. The genus was erected by Jacob Hübner in 1807.
Limenitis reducta, the southern white admiral, is a butterfly of the family Nymphalidae.
Leptocneria reducta, the white cedar moth, is a moth of the subfamily Lymantriinae. The species was first described by Francis Walker in 1855. It is found in all of Australia, except Tasmania.
Sorbus reducta (铺地花楸), the dwarf Chinese mountain ash, is a species of flowering plant in the family Rosaceae, native to western China (South West Sichuan and North West Yunnan}. Growing to 1.5 m tall by 2 m wide, it is a dense deciduous spreading shrub. Each leaf, 10 cm long, has up to 15 leaflets which turn to brilliant shades of red in the autumn. White flowers in spring are followed by red or pink, and then white berries in autumn.
