Species                - G.atlanticus

Blue Glascus is a species of small, blue sea slug, a pelagic aeolid nudibranch, a shell-less gastropod mollusca in the family Glaucidae. These sea slugs are pelagic; they float upside down by using the surface tension of the water to stay up, where they are carried along the winds and ocean currents.

The Blue Dragon ( Glascus atlnticus ) is a type of mollusca, or sea slug known as a nudibranch. this nudibranch is pelagic, and some evidence indicates that it occurs throughout the world's oceans, in temperate and tropical waters. It has been recorded from the east and south coasts of South Africa, European waters, the east coast of Australia, and Mozambique. Blue Glascus can grow up to 1.2 inches ( 3cm ) long. Additionally, the Blue Glascus has a flattered, tapered body, along with six appendages that branch out into finger-like cerata-eighty-four to be exact. It's bright belly and grey back help camouflage the tiny creature from predators both above and below it. Life expectancy for the Blue Glascus ranges from between one month to one year.

Since the Blue Glascus stores up the stinging-cells from Portuguese Man O'war, their sting can be several times worse than their siphonophore prey, their venom can remain active even after they die.

Blue Dragons are among nature's most efficient recyclers. But what they are recycling, you don't want. But Blue Dragons are part of nature.

Genus                  - Tettigonia

Species                - T.viridissima

Tettigonia viridissima, the great green bush crickets, is a large species of bush cricket belonging to the subfamily Tetttigoniinae. 

This species can be encountered in most of Europe, in the eastern Palearctic realm, in the Near East, and in North America, especially in meadows, grasslands, prairies, and occasionally in gardens at an elevation up to 1800 meter above sea level. Crickets are either green or white. They can live on the ground, in trees, or in bushes, where they feed largely on aphids and ants. The adult males grow up to 26 - 28mm ( 1.1 - 1.4 in ) long, while females reach 32 - 42mm. Crickets generally live for 90 days, depending on the reason and predators.

Crickets can bite, but it isn't painful and it is highly unlikely that they will. They are also not poisonous. So, other than mental anguish, these pests can't hurt you. However, the primary danger associated with crickets is not their bite but the parasites and diseases they carry, like Escherichia coli and Salmonella. Cricket feces contain worms that may cause painful sores and rashes on human skin if contacted. These insects can also make you sick with symptoms similar to the flu.

Genus                   - Lymantria

Species                 - L.dispar

Lymantria dispar, also known as the gypsy moth or the spongy moth, is a species of moth in the family Erebidae. Lymantria dispar is subdivided into several subspecies, with subspecies such as L.d.dispar and L.d.japonica being clearly identifiable without ambiguity. The use of " gypsy moth " goes back to at least 1908, and according to various theories, possibly alludes to the way the moth's larvae are blown on the wind or the way it's caterpillars migrate each day from a tree's leaves to shady spots on it's trunk.

The gypsy moth found mainly in Ontario, Quebec, and Maritime provinces. As well as the gypsy moth is native to Europe,  Asia, and North Africa. Male gypsy moths are brown. They have a small body and are strong fliers. Female gypsy moths are white with black markings on the wings. They are much larger than males, but they do not fly. After mating, the female lays her eggs before she dies. Gypsy moths complete their life cycle in one year.

Gypsy moth caterpillars can defoliate, weaken and kill more than 300 different species of trees and shrubs. It's ability to defoliate trees year after year, the gypsy moth is a significant environmental, economic, and quality of life issue. Therefore, infestations and the treatments are taken very seriously. This insect pest is not native to North America and has no natural enemies to keep it's population in check. The gypsy moth caterpillar disrupts people's lives, alters ecosystems, and destroys the beauty of woodlands by feeding on the foliage of trees, shrubs, and other plants.

The larvae, or caterpillars, of gypsy moth are an important defoliator of a wide range of broadleaved trees and shrubs.

Genus                   - Ulva 

Species                 - U.lactuca 

The sea lettuces comprise the genus Ulva, a group of edible green algae that is widely distributed along the coasts of the world's oceans. The type species within the genus Ulva is Ulva lactuca, lactuca being Latin for " lettuce ". The genus also includes the species previously classified under the genus Enteromorpha, the former members of which are known under the common name green nori.

Ulva is essentially a marine alga generally found on rock shores where it occurs attached to stones, rocks, etc. Some species of Ulva are also found in brackish water and polluted estuaries. It usually grows in association with various other algal species such as Cladophora. Ulva lactuca grows naturallly all over the world, in Europe, North and South America, Africa, the Indian ocean and Pacific islands, Southwest Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. The thallus of ulvoid species is flat and blade-like and is composed of two lagers of cells. There is no differentiation into tissues; all the cells of the plant are more or less alike except for the basal cells, which are elongated to form attachment rhizoids. 

Some Ulva species, including Ulva  lactuca, release a toxic substance into water, and that are harmful to humans. Ulva contains commercially valuable components, such as bioactive compounds, food or biofuel. The biomass due to this alga collected on beaches every year is beginning to be valorized to produce valuable compounds. These fast-growing species can act as a bioremedication agent by removing excess nutrients in the water column, such as from coastal runoff. Blooms are therefore good markers of nitrate pollution.

Genus                  - Phanaeus

Species                - P.vindex

Although most dung beetles are dull black, the rainbow scarab is a living jewel of bright metallic green and copper. They are large, stocky, and strong. Males have a backward - pointing horn on the top of the head. Unlike many other dung beetles, this species buries it's dung ball beneath the mass of poop, instead of rolling it away from the pile. It has distinctive orange antennae with leaflike plates that can be pressed together or fanned apart, and a single spur just above the " foot " of the hind legs. Despite their striking appearance, rainbow scarab are rarely seen, even though they are fairly common.

The rainbow scarab is native to and found extensively, in the eastern United States from Massachusetts to South Dakota in the North and Texas to Florida in the South. The Florida keys and the Everglades are the only regions in Florida where the rainbow scarab has not been found. The adults are bulky, with an oval or elongate shape. From the top of the head to the back of the abdomen, males and females are about 1 to 2.2cm long. They have lamellate antennae.

Rainbow scarab are generally not harmful to humans, although they can fly around and be a nuisance. However, they can cause damage to plants and gardens.

This species, like other dung beetles, is not a pest, and plays on important role in reducing waste in the environment. The rainbow scarab beetle is a natural composter, bringing nutrients from our cow pies into soil and reducing nutrient run off. The benefits of the beetle's existence are well-known in conservation because they help reduce damage created by large quantities of dung left behind by ruminants.

Family               - Cicadellidae

Sharpshooters are leafhoppers in the tribes Proconiini and Cicadellini within the family Cicadellidae in the suborder Auchenorrhyncha of the Hemiptera. Worldwide, there are nearly 20,000 described species, making the Cicadellidae the 10th largest insect family. These minute insects, colloquially known as hoppers, are plant feeders that suck plant sap from grass, shrubs, or trees.

Leafhoppers can be found on all continents in nearly every habitat that supports vascular plant life, including deserts, grasslands, wetlands and forests. They are usually found feeding on the above-ground stems or leaves of plants. Leafhopper adults are elongated, wedge shaped and somewhat triangular in cross-section. They jump and fly off readily. Depending on species, they range in size from 1/8 to 1/2-inch and their bodies are colored yellow, green, gray or they may be marked with color patterns. Several generations can occur in a single season, each one lasting from 12 to 30 days.

Leafhopper feeding causes leaves to develop pale specks. Leaves and shoot tips fed upon by an abundance of leafhoppers may turn yellow then brown and curl and die. Leafhoppers also excrete honeydew on which blackish sooty mold grows. Phytoplasmas are mainly spread by insects in the families Cicadellidae ( Leafhoppers ), Fulgoroidea ( Planthoppers ), and Psyllidae ( Jumping plant lice ), which feed on the phloem tissues of infected plants, picking up the phytoplasmas and trransmitting them to the next plant they feed on.

Although leafhoppers damage grasses and other plants, also they are part of nature.

Mantises are an order of insects that contains over 2400 species in about 460 genera in 33 families. The largest family is the Mantidae. Mantises are distributed worldwide in temperate and tropical habitats. They have triangular heads with bulging eyes supported on flexible necks. The earliest mantis fossils are about 140 million years old, from Siberia. Praying mantids have long necks topped by a triangular head. They can turn their heads 180 degrees an entire half circle. They are well camouflaged, adapting colors that help them blend with plants. Some also have amazing body shapes that make them look like leaves or branches.

The praying mantis is found in many differing habitats. They are generally located in the warmer regions, particularly tropical and subtropical latitudes. Most species live in the tropical rainforest, although others can be found in deserts, grasslands and meadowlands. Mantises are among the largest insects. Adults generally range from 2 to 5 inches ( 5 - 12 cm ) long. Adults and nymphs are elongate and usually brown, green, or yellowish; a single species can have all 3 colors phases, such as the California mantid, Stagmomantis wheeleri.

Despite their small size, they may not eat spiders, frogs, lizards, and small birds, praying mantises aren't generally known to bite humans, but it is possible. They could do it by accident if they see your fingers as prey, but like most animals, they know how to correctly identify their food. Praying mantises have no venom and cannot sting. Nor do they carry any infectious diseases.

The  Hercules Beetle is a species of rhinoceros beetle native to the rainforests of Central America, South America and Lesser Antilles. It is the longest extant species of beetle in the world, and is also one of the largest flying insects in the world. Dynastes hercules is known for it's tremendous strength and is named after Hercules, a hero of classical mythology who is famed for his great strength.

Populations of Dynastes hercules may be found from Southern Mexico to Bolivia in mountainous and lowland rain forests, Known populations include the Lesser Antilles, Trinidad and Tobago, Brazil, Ecuador, Colombia, and Peru. Chromosomal analysis has shown that the genus Dynastes in fact originated from South America. Adult body sizes vary between 50 and 85mm in length and 29 and 42mm in width. Male Hercules beetles may reach up to 173mm in length, making them the longest species of beetle in the world, if jaws and/or horns are included in the measurement. Beetles have four stages of development, egg-larvae-pupa-adult, and can live up to 6 months depending on availability of food.

Because of their large size and impressive horns, many people believe that Hercules beetles are dangerous. But it does not negatively affect human activities, either as an agricultural pest or disease vector. In fact, their horns are not dangerous at all, and the beetles are not known to bite. However, if you pick one up, it may scratch you with it's strong, spiny legs.

Family       - Reduviidae

Hemiptera is an order of insects, commonly called true bugs, comprising over 80,000 species within groups such as the cicadas, aphids, planthoppers, leafhoppers, assassin bugs, bed bugs, and shield bugs. They range in size from 1mm to around 15cm, and share a common arrangement of piercing-sucking mouth parts. Assassin bugs are predatory insects that are of great benefit to gardeners. They are proficient at capturing and feeding on a wide variety of prey including other bugs, bees, flies and caterpillars. They are called assassins because they pierce their prey think other bugs, caterpillars and flies with their long mouthpieces. These bugs not only bite, but their " kiss " can spread a parasite that causes chagas disease, which can cause damage to major organs, lead to heart failure, and even be fatal. However, the transmission of the trypanosoma cruzi parasite from a bug to a human is not easy. The parasite that causes the disease is in the bug feces. The bug generally poops on or near a person while it is feeding on their blood, usually when the person is sleeping.

There are approximately 3200 described species of treehoppers worldwide, 257 of which live in North America. Currently, these insects are placed in three separate families : Melizoderidae, Aetalionidae and Membracidae. Membracidae is by far the largest and most widespread. Ceresa taurina is a half-winged insect of the family Membracidae. The body color is bright green, the thorny projection of the pronotum or pronotum points posteriorly and has two pointed projections on the front pointing forward. with some imagination this is reminiscent of the horns of a bull and it is from this that the scientific generic name taurina is due, which is derived from the Latin taurus, " bull ". The cicada has a strongly arched body shape with large wings and to other animals it looks strikingly like a young leaf with spines. Individuals treehoppers usually live for only a few months, but they belong to a lineage that is at least 40 millions years old. The oldest undoubted treehopper fossils are specimens of a few as yet undescribed species from amber found in the Dominican republic. Ceresa taurina feeds on various plants, sucking the juices up through the sucking proboscis or rostrum. The cicades live on plants used by humans as a source of food , such as raspberry, apple and pear, among other things.

The diabolical ironclad beetle is found throughout the southwest United States. Where it lives under rocks or inside the bark of trees. Over their life span of seven or eight years. Ironclad beetles measure about 0.6 to 1 inch (15 to 25 mm ) in length. The diabolical ironclad beetle is like a tiny tank on six legs. This insect's rugged exoskeleton is so tough that the beetle can survive getting run over by cars. A compression test revealed the diabolical ironclad beetle can withstand a force of 39 thousand times it's own body weight. The exoskeleton of this beetle has a much higher concentration of protein than other related beetles, which helps explain it's strength and toughness. As well as many would be predators don't stand a chance of cracking one open. Phloeodes diabolicus is basically nature's jawbreaker. They are not damaging plants and not poisonous to humans. But these Arizona bugs and reptiles can hurt you. In beetles with aerial capabilities, the elytra protects their wings from bacteria and other damage that would otherwise prevent them from taking fight.

 Mucor is a microbial genus of approximately 40 species of moulds in the family Mucoraceae.  Mucor mucedo, commonly known as the common pinmould, is a fungal plant pathogen and member of the phylum Mucoromycota and the genus  Mucor.  Mucor indicus, one of the most important stains of Zygomycetes fungi, has been the subject of several studies since a couple of hundred years ago. 

Species are commonly found in soil, digestive systems, plant surfaces, some cheeses like Tomme de Savoie, rotten vegetable matter and iron oxide residue in the biosorption process. The Mucorales are characterized by anamorph structures. The mycelium is typically non-septate or irregularly septate. Sporangiospores are produced in multi-sporangia. The sporangia are characterized by the inclusion of a variously shaped columella.

These fungi aren't harmful to most people. However, for people who have weak immune system, breathing in mucormycete spores can cause on infection in the lungs or sinuses which can spread to other parts of the body. Among such fungi are members of the Asperigillus and Fusarium genera as well as other genera including  Mucor comprising the emerging pathogen group in humans.

Fungi order of the Mucorales colonize all kinds of wet, organic materials and represent a permanent part of the human environment. They are economically important as fermenting agents of soybean products, and producers of enzymes, but also as plant parasites and spoilage organisms.

Genus                - Paramecium

Paramecium  or Paramoecium  is a genus of unicellar citiated protozoa. They are characterised by the presence of thousands of cilia covering their body. Paramecium were among the first cillates to be seen by microscopists, in the late 17th century. They were probably known to the dutch pioneer of protozoology, Antoine Van Leeuwenhoek, and were clearly described by his contemporary.

Paramecium live in aquatic environments, usually in stagnant, warm water. The species Paramecium bursaria forms symbiotic relationships with green algae. The algae live in it's cytoplasma. Algal photosynthesis provides food source for Paramecium. Some species form relationships with bacteria. Species of Paramecium range in size from 50 to 330 micrometers in length. Cells are typically ovoid, elongate, foot - or cigar - shaped.

Paramecium can have both positive and negative effects on humans. Paramecium have potential to spread harmful diseases in the human body by imbalance, but they can also serve a benefit to humans by destroying cryptococcus neoformans, a type of disease caused by special fungi ( from the genus cryptococcus ) that can spread in the human body and and affect the immune system.

It is the best known and most widely studied member of the class Euglenoidea, a diverse group containing some 54 genus and at least 200 species.  Euglena live in fresh and brackish water habitats such as ponds rich in organic matter. Some species can form green or red " blooms " in ponds or lakes. The single cells are biflagellate, with the flagella originating in a small reservoir at the anterior of the cell. The Euglena is unique in that it is both heterotrophic ( must consume food ) and autotrophic ( can make it's own food ). Chloroplasts within the Euglena trap sunlight that is used for photosynthesis, and can be seen as several rod like structures throughout the cell. Euglena is recommended for regulating bowel movements, improving energy levels, and supplementing those who have no time to prepare nutritious meals. As a component in cosmetics and beauty products, Euglena helps to make skin smoother, more elastic and radiant. Euglena species are parasites that may be a cause of serious blood and tissue diseases in humans. Euglena produces a neurotoxin  named euglenophycin which can be deadly for fresh water fishes. It forms toxic algae blooms in fresh water which harm water habits.

The sea slug superficially resembles a nudibranch, yet it does not belong to that clade. Instead it is a member of the clade sacoglossa, the sap-sucking sea slugs. Elysia chlorotica, also called emerald green sea slug or eastern emerald elysia, species of sea slug belonging to the family Elysiidae and known for it's ability tp photosynthesize food. Elysia chlorotica is half animal and half plant. Some members of this group use chloroplates from the algae they eat for photosynthesis, a phenomenon known as Kleptoplasty. Elysia chlorotica is one species of such " solaor-powered sea slugs " with their contraband genes, the slugs can carry out photosynthesis. The process plants use to convert sunlight in to energy. The slugs can manufacture chrolophyll, the green pigment in plants that captures energy from sunlight and hold these genes within it's body, while slugs are slimy and damaging to plants, they are not poisonous to humans.
