Animalia

Members of the Kingdom: Animalia

The Kingdom Animalia is so huge that it is impossible to import the whole of it in a .ged file. The solution is to break it down into smaller parts and import. All 36 Phylums have been entered, but only the first four have been completed beyond the level of Class.

Classes in phylum, Chordata, Cnidaria and Ctenophora were manually entered today.

Echinargus isola, Reakirt's Blue

Reakirt's Blue

So many species…so little time.

More entries have been added to Phylum Arthropoda. All Class names have been entered.  Within Class Insecta, all Order names have been entered.

Within Order Lepidoptera, Superfamily names are complete.

Within Superfamily Papilionoidea, Family Lycaenidae has been completed through Genus names beginning with “F”.

Within Family Lycaenidae, Genus Echinargus is complete with all Species names.

Of course there’s a method to the madness. I wanted to add a photo I took last July of a pretty little “Blue” butterfly that posed for me so nicely in the neighborhood I was living in at the time just above the northeast shore of Lake Worth, Texas.

In order to add the image, I had to add Echinargus isola to the database. I’m hoping my photography will motivate me to complete more work here on the database as time goes on.
