This creature weighed 270 kg (600 lb), had an axial length of 1.14 m (3.7 ft) and depth of 0.75 m (2.5 ft). [1] The largest bivalve ever was Platyceramus platinus, a Cretaceous giant that reached an axial length of up to 3 m (nearly 10 ft). [250] Gastropods
A spatial genetic analysis estimated that a specimen of Armillaria ostoyae growing over 91 acres (37 ha) in northern Michigan, United States weighs 440 tons (4 x 10 5 kg). [ 29 ] [ 30 ] In Armillaria ostoyae , each individual mushroom (the fruiting body, similar to a flower on a plant) has only a 5 cm (2.0 in) stipe, and a pileus up to 12.5 cm ...

Organic matter could be transferred from corals to sponges by all these pathways, but DOM likely makes up the largest fraction, as the majority (56 to 80%) of coral mucus dissolves in the water column, [65] and coral loss of fixed carbon due to expulsion of Symbiodinium is typically negligible (0.01%) [68] compared with mucus release (up to ~40%).
The largest of these insectivorous mammals is the giant otter shrew (Potamogale velox), native to Central Africa.This species can weigh up to 1 kilogram (2.2 lb) and measure 0.64 metres (2.1 ft) in total length.
It was estimated to grow to more than 1,250 kg (1.38 short tons) and 2 m (6 ft 7 in) at the shoulders. [136] The largest anchitherine equid was Hypohippus at 403 to 600 kg (888 to 1,323 lb), comparable to large modern domestic horses. [137] [138] Megahippus is another large anchitheriine. With the body mass of 266.2 kg (587 lb) it was much ...
It can grow up to a 5.2 m (17 ft) disk width, a total length of 6.5 m (21 ft) and a weight of at least 1,000 kg (2,200 lb). [ 45 ] [ 46 ] The largest stingray is generally accepted to be the short-tail stingray ( Dasyatis brevicaudata ), found off the southern tip of Africa and Australasia, at up to 4.3 m (14 ft) across the disk and weighing ...
