The Theraphosinae are a large subfamily of Mygalomorphae spiders in the family Theraphosidae found primarily in the Neotropical realm. Genera
This species was first discovered in April 2001, and has been referred to as the "scaly-foot" gastropod since 2001. [8] It has been referred to as Chrysomallon squamiferum since 2003, but it was not formally described in the sense of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature until Chen et al. named it in 2015.
Siphonophorae (from Greek siphōn 'tube' + pherein 'to bear' [2]) is an order within Hydrozoa, which is a class of marine organisms within the phylum Cnidaria.According to the World Register of Marine Species, the order contains 175 species described thus far.
Young T. apophysis spiders have pink shading at the end of each leg, which fades with each moult. [4] T. apophysis has an additional stridulating organ on the coxa of the second leg and thinner femora than T. blondi. The male T. apophysis has tibial apophyses (projections) – hence the species name. [3]
The Siqueiros transform fault system is located on the northern end of EPR, situated south of Mexico in the Pacific Ocean. It is composed of five transform faults and four corresponding spreading centres. [51] Magmatism at these transforms is induced via small melt anomalies in the mantle beneath the transforms. [51]
For example, andesitic magmatism is associated with the formation of island arcs at convergent plate boundaries while basaltic magmatism is found at mid-ocean ridges during sea-floor spreading at divergent plate boundaries. On Earth, magma forms by partial melting of silicate rocks either in the mantle, continental or oceanic crust. Evidence ...
Piemont-Liguria Ocean – Former piece of oceanic crust that is seen as part of the Tethys Ocean; Zanclean flood – Theoretical refilling of the Mediterranean Sea between the Miocene and Pliocene Epochs; Paleo-Tethys Ocean – Ocean on the margin of Gondwana between the Middle Cambrian and Late Triassic
The lower oceanic crust connects the Earth's mantle with the MORB, where around 60% of the total magma production of the Earth happens. The three main processes happening in this region of the oceanic crust are partial melting of the Earth's mantle, melt accumulation at various depths and the chemical modification of this melts during ascent,.
