Stylogaster neglecta is a species of thick-headed flies (insects in the family Conopidae). [1] [2] [3] [4]
The western meadowlark is a medium-sized icterid bird, about 8.5 in (22 cm) in length. It nests on the ground in open grasslands across western and central North America. It feeds mostly on bugs, but will also feed on seeds and berries. The western meadowlark has distinctive calls described as watery or flute-like, which distinguish it from the closely related eastern meadowlark. The western meadowlark is the state bird of six states: Montana, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oregon, and Wyoming.
The Conopidae, usually known as the thick-headed flies, are a family of flies within the Brachycera suborder of Diptera, and the sole member of the superfamily Conopoidea. Flies of the family Conopidae are distributed worldwide in all the biogeographic realms except for the poles and many of the Pacific islands. About 800 species in 47 genera are described worldwide, about 70 of which are found in North America. The majority of conopids are black and yellow, or black and white, and often strikingly resemble wasps, bees, or flies of the family Syrphidae, themselves notable bee mimics. A conopid is most frequently found at flowers, feeding on nectar with its proboscis, which is often long.
The conopid genus Stylogaster is a group of unusual flies. It is the only genus in the subfamily Stylogastrinae, which some authorities have historically treated as a separate family Stylogastridae.
The Kermadec petrel is a species of gadfly petrel in the family Procellariidae. It is 38 cm long with a wingspan of 100 cm. It is polymorphic, with light, dark and intermediate morphs known. It eats squid, fish and other marine creatures.
Helicia neglecta is a species of plant in the family Proteaceae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Malva neglecta is an annual growing to 0.6 m (2 ft). It is known as common mallow in the United States and also as buttonweed, cheeseplant, cheeseweed, dwarf mallow and roundleaf mallow. This plant is often consumed as a food, with its leaves, stalks and seed all being considered edible. This is especially true of the seeds, which contain 21% protein and 15.2% fat.
Scorpaenopsis neglecta, the yellowfin scorpionfish, is a scorpionfish from the Indo-West Pacific. The species is commonly found on the continental shelf and can grow up to a length of 190 mm (7.5 in).
Lebrunia neglecta is a species of sea anemone in the family Aliciidae. It is found in the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico.
Agave weberi, known as maguey liso in Spanish and as Weber agave in English, is a succulent perennial plant in the family Asparagaceae, subfamily Agavoideae. Under the synonym Agave neglecta, it is known as wild century plant and Small agave – the latter in honor of its discoverer in Florida, John Kunkel Small. Naturalized populations in Florida were considered to be a separate species, but are now treated as synonymous with A. weberi.
Lebrunia is a genus of sea anemones in the family Aliciidae.
Acmaeodera neglecta is a species of metallic wood-boring beetle in the family Buprestidae. It is found in North America.
Bitoma neglecta is a species of cylindrical bark beetle in the family Zopheridae. It is found in Central America and North America.
Stylogaster biannulata is a species of thick-headed flies.
Cordyla is a genus of fungus gnats in the family Mycetophilidae. There are at least 30 described species in Cordyla.
Panorpa neglecta is a species of common scorpionfly in the family Panorpidae. It is indigenous to North America.
Copromyza neglecta is a species of lesser dung fly in the family Sphaeroceridae. It is found in Europe.
Exema neglecta is a species of warty leaf beetle in the family Chrysomelidae. It is found in North America.
Atalantycha neglecta is a species of soldier beetle in the family Cantharidae. It is found in North America.
Leiodes neglecta is a species of round fungus beetle in the family Leiodidae. It is found in North America.
Notothenia neglecta is a species of fish found in the Southern Ocean in Antarctica. They are omnivorous, and are found in both benthic and pelagic regions of the ocean. Their diet includes krill, bivalves, and gastropods. They have evolved unique behaviors and morphological features in order to thrive in the cold and harsh Antarctic climate. N. neglecta is also commercially fished, although not in high numbers.
