Australia

Australia, officially the Commonwealth of Australia, is a country comprising the mainland of the Australian continent, the island of Tasmania, and numerous smaller islands.

See Aops and Australia

Barrow Island (Western Australia)

Barrow Island is a island northwest off the Pilbara coast of Western Australia.

Binomial nomenclature

In taxonomy, binomial nomenclature ("two-term naming system"), also called binary nomenclature, is a formal system of naming species of living things by giving each a name composed of two parts, both of which use Latin grammatical forms, although they can be based on words from other languages.

See Aops and Binomial nomenclature

Chelae

A chelaalso called a claw, nipper, or pinceris a pincer-shaped organ at the end of certain limbs of some arthropods.

See Aops and Chelae

Endemism

Endemism is the state of a species only being found in a single defined geographic location, such as an island, state, nation, country or other defined zone; organisms that are indigenous to a place are not endemic to it if they are also found elsewhere.

See Aops and Endemism

Family (biology)

Family (familia,: familiae) is one of the nine major hierarchical taxonomic ranks in Linnaean taxonomy.

See Aops and Family (biology)

Genus

Genus (genera) is a taxonomic rank above species and below family as used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms as well as viruses.

See Aops and Genus

Holotype

A holotype is a single physical example (or illustration) of an organism used when the species (or lower-ranked taxon) was formally described.

See Aops and Holotype

Monotypic taxon

In biology, a monotypic taxon is a taxonomic group (taxon) that contains only one immediately subordinate taxon.

See Aops and Monotypic taxon

Pincer (biology)

A pincer is the part of an arthropod that enables it to carry loads, to defend against other creatures, or to attack prey.

See Aops and Pincer (biology)

Scorpion

Scorpions are predatory arachnids of the order Scorpiones.

See Aops and Scorpion

Troglofauna

Troglofauna are small cave-dwelling animals that have adapted to their dark surroundings.

See Aops and Troglofauna

Urodacidae

Urodacidae is a family containing two genera of scorpions, both of which are endemic to Australia. Aops and Urodacidae are scorpion stubs and Scorpions of Australia.

See Aops and Urodacidae

Western Australia
