Planaria is a genus of planarians in the family Planariidae. Due to its excellent ability to regenerate, species of Planaria has also been used as model organisms in regeneration studies. [ 1 ] When an individual is cut into pieces, each piece has the ability to regenerate into a fully formed individual. [ 2 ]

Gould's Ecoregions of Texas (1960). [1] These regions approximately correspond to the EPA's level 3 ecoregions. [2] The following is a list of widely known trees and shrubs found in Texas. [3] [4] [5] Taxonomic families for the following trees and shrubs are listed in alphabetical order by family. [6]
Planarian regeneration combines new tissue production with reorganization to the existing anatomy, morphallaxis. [17] The rate of tissue regrowth varies between species, but in frequently used lab species, functional regenerated tissues are available already 7–10 days following tissue amputation. [17]
The complete mitogenome of Caenoplana coerulea is 18,621 bp in length. [7] Its main characteristic is a cytochrome c oxidase subunit 2 gene of unusual length, with a cox2 encoded protein 505 aa in length (compared to about 250 aa in other geoplanids); this characteristic of a very long cox2 is also found in other members of the subfamily Rhynchodeminae, to which Caenoplana coerulea belongs.
Enacted 50 years ago on Dec. 28, 1973, this legislation has played a pivotal role in preserving and protecting hundreds of species. 18 Texas species supported by the Endangered Species Act over 50 ...
Caenoplana variegata is a species of land planarian. [1] It was first described in 1888 as Geoplana variegata by Joseph James Fletcher and Alexander Greenlaw Hamilton. [1] [2] The currently accepted name is Caenoplana variegata [1] [3] although the name accepted by Australian authorities is Australopacifica variegata.
Geoplanidae is a family of flatworms known commonly as land planarians or land flatworms. [2]These flatworms are mainly predators of other invertebrates, which they hunt, attack and capture using physical force and the adhesive and digestive properties of their mucus. [3]
