Binomial nomenclature
Binomial nomenclature ("two-term naming system") also called nomenclature ("two-name naming system") or 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.

Biodiversity
Biodiversity, a portmanteau of biological (life) and diversity, generally refers to the variety and variability of life on Earth.

Branchiostomidae
Branchiostomidae (syn: Branchiostomatidae) is the family that includes most of the lancelets, which are tiny chordates without a true spine but only a flexible notochord.

Cephalochordate
A cephalochordate (from Greek: κεφαλή, "head" and χορδή, "chord") is an animal in the chordate subphylum, Cephalochordata.

Chordate
A chordate is an animal belonging to the phylum Chordata; chordates possess a notochord, a hollow dorsal nerve cord, pharyngeal slits, an endostyle, and a post-anal tail, for at least some period of their life cycle.

Dorsal nerve cord
The dorsal nerve cord is a unique feature to chordates, and it is mainly found in the Vertebrata chordate subphylum.

Eye
Eyes are organs of the visual system.

Family (biology)
In biological classification, family (familia, plural familiae) is one of the eight major taxonomic ranks; it is classified between order and genus.

Filter feeder
Filter feeders are a sub-group of suspension feeding animals that feed by straining suspended matter and food particles from water, typically by passing the water over a specialized filtering structure.

Genus
A genus (genera) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms, as well as viruses, in biology.
New!!: Branchiostoma and Genus · See more »
Gill
A gill is a respiratory organ found in many aquatic organisms that extracts dissolved oxygen from water and excretes carbon dioxide.
New!!: Branchiostoma and Gill · See more »
Head
A head is the part of an organism which usually includes the eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, each of which aid in various sensory functions such as sight, hearing, smell, and taste, respectively.

Lancelet
The lancelets — also known as amphioxi (singular, amphioxus) consist of about 32 species of fish-like marine chordates in the order Amphioxiformes.

Nose
A nose is a protuberance in vertebrates that houses the nostrils, or nares, which receive and expel air for respiration alongside the mouth.

Oronzio Gabriele Costa
Oronzio Gabriele Costa (26 August 1787, Lecce – 7 November 1867 Naples) was an Italian zoologist.

Sediment
Sediment is a naturally occurring material that is broken down by processes of weathering and erosion, and is subsequently transported by the action of wind, water, or ice, and/or by the force of gravity acting on the particles.

Skull
The skull is a bony structure that forms the head in vertebrates.

Species complex
In biology, a species complex is a group of closely related species that are very similar in appearance to the point that the boundaries between them are often unclear.

Type (biology)
In biology, a type is a particular specimen (or in some cases a group of specimens) of an organism to which the scientific name of that organism is formally attached.

Vertebrate
Vertebrates comprise all species of animals within the subphylum Vertebrata (chordates with backbones).
