Unaporanga cincta is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Martins and Galileo in 2007. It is known from Panama. [1]
Beetles are a group of insects that form the order Coleoptera, in the superorder Endopterygota. Their front pair of wings are hardened into wing-cases, elytra, distinguishing them from most other insects. The Coleoptera, with about 400,000 species, is the largest of all orders, constituting almost 40% of described insects and 25% of all known animal life-forms; new species are discovered frequently. The largest of all families, the Curculionidae (weevils) with some 70,000 member species, belongs to this order. Found in almost every habitat except the sea and the polar regions, they interact with their ecosystems in several ways: beetles often feed on plants and fungi, break down animal and plant debris, and eat other invertebrates. Some species are serious agricultural pests, such as the Colorado potato beetle, while others such as Coccinellidae eat aphids, scale insects, thrips, and other plant-sucking insects that damage crops.
Panama, officially the Republic of Panama, is a country in Central America, bordered by Costa Rica to the west, Colombia to the southeast, the Caribbean Sea to the north, and the Pacific Ocean to the south. The capital and largest city is Panama City, whose metropolitan area is home to nearly half the country's 4 million people.
The stitchbird or hihi is a rare honeyeater-like bird endemic to the North Island and adjacent offshore islands of New Zealand. It became extirpated everywhere except Little Barrier Island but has been reintroduced to three other island sanctuaries and two locations on the North Island mainland. Its evolutionary relationships have long puzzled ornithologists, but it is now classed as the only member of its own family, the Notiomystidae.
Nepenthes × cincta is a natural hybrid between N. albomarginata and N. northiana.
The black-throated finch, or parson finch, is a species of estrildid finch found in grassy woodlands throughout north-east Australia from Cape York Peninsula to central Queensland. Its population is declining, having become extinct in New South Wales, and its habitat is threatened by development.
The banded martin or banded sand martin is a small passerine bird in the swallow family. It is an inhabitant of the African continent.
The banded hickory borer, Knulliana cincta, is a species of longhorn beetle and the only species in the genus Knulliana. It is about 15–30 mm in length occurring throughout the eastern half of North America, including Mexico and the Bahamas, with one subspecies extending to the Sonoran Desert. If roughly handled it may start to squeak furiously. They are usually found on hickory trees and oak trees, where they lay their eggs; the larvae bore into the trees, sometimes doing significant damage. There are three described subspecies:
Cominella is a genus of carnivorous sea snails, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Buccinidae, the true whelks.
Glossodoris cincta is a species of sea slug, a dorid nudibranch, a shell-less marine gastropod mollusk in the family Chromodorididae. This name has been extensively used for a group of similarly coloured species, some of which are un-named.
Tritoniopsis cincta is a species of dendronotid nudibranch. It is a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Tritoniidae.
Orchesella cincta is a species of springtail present in North America and Europe. They average 4 millimetres (0.16 in) in length. The specific name cincta means "belted" and refers to the distinctive colouration of the third abdominal segment.
Burnupena cincta, common name the ridged burnupena, is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Buccinidae, the true whelks.
Burnupena is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Buccinidae, the true whelks.
Grevillea miqueliana, commonly known as oval-leaf grevillea, is a shrub that is endemic to mountainous areas of eastern Victoria in Australia. It grows to between 1.5 and 2.5 metres in height. The species was first formally described by botanist Ferdinand von Mueller, his description published in Transactions of the Philosophical Society of Victoria in 1855. The species epithet honours Dutch botanist Friedrich Anton Wilhelm Miquel (1811-1871).
Milda cincta, common name the banded pyram, is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pyramidellidae, the pyrams and their allies.
Unaporanga is a genus of longhorn beetles of the subfamily Lamiinae, containing the following species:
Unaporanga lanceolata is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Martins and Galileo in 2007. It is known from Ecuador.
Melanopolia cincta is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Jordan in 1903. It is known from Equatorial Guinea, Cameroon and Gabon. It contains the varietas Melanopolia cincta var. maculata.
Diadumene cincta is a small and delicate, usually orange, sea anemone. It has a smooth slender column and up to 200 long tentacles, and normally grows to a length of up to 35 mm (1.4 in), with a base of 10 mm (0.4 in), but specimens twice this size have been recorded. Diadumene cincta is found in the northeastern Atlantic Ocean.
Menosoma cincta is a species of leafhopper in the family Cicadellidae.
Euxoa cincta is a species of cutworm or dart moth in the family Noctuidae. It is found in North America.
Autochton cincta, the chisos banded skipper, is a species of dicot skipper in the family of butterflies known as Hesperiidae. It is found in Central America and North America.
