 Dinosaur Genera List
Genus (plural: genera) is a major category invented in the mid-1750s by the botanist Carolus Linnaeus (or Karl von Linne) for his system of classifying nature.
His Systema Naturae is still, more than 250 years later, in use by naturalists and biologists worldwide.
The Dinosaur Genera List is freely available to anyone who desires to publish it in book or magazine form, to link to it, or to display it at a website, provided only that George Olshevsky be informed of such publication or Internet display, and be properly credited as compiler.

 Marco Polo - Cruisemates Cruise Ship Review
This ship is at the top of our "Biggest Bang For The Buck" category: it’s a wonderful cruise experience coupled with many extras for a reasonable fare.
You’ll receive detailed information before departure, expect to find historians, naturalists and those specializing in local culture aboard as guest lecturers (apart from summer cruises in northern Europe and the Mediterranean where there are no enrichment lecturers).
Raffles is the ship’s alternative restaurant, open most nights for a casual buffet dinner either inside or out by the pool and, on occasion, for a set Oriental dinner.

 Sanctuary Whale Watching Cruises on Monterey Bay - Year-Round Whale Watching and Special Charters
The winner in the adult category will get free whale watching for everyone in their party the day the photo was taken (with the exception of school or company trips).
Incredible naturalists and friendly crew that takes great care of you.
Even when the whale did swim and dive in the regular way, she held her flukes and tail stock extra high out of the water, giving us a chance to glimpse the melon-sized bump on her lower belly; that’s how we knew she was a female.

 Folk biology and the anthropology of science
Thus, the key feature of folk biology, belonging to a preferred taxonomic rank and a causally essential category, is induced from spatiotemporal analysis via a triggering algorithm that attends to a limited set of perceptual cues whose presence signals an organism as belonging to a generic species.
The distinction between genus and species did not appear until the influx of newly discovered species from around the world compelled European naturalists to sort and remember them within a worldwide system of genera built around (mainly European) species types (Atran 1987a).
The observations are that: the terms for commonsense generic species and the species terms used in science are often the same; and scientific classification did initially stem from commonsense classification.

 Classification of Living Things: Introduction
A genus is a higher level category that includes one or more species under it.
The leading naturalists of the 18th and 19th centuries spent their lives identifying and naming newly discovered plants and animals.
This Linnaean system of classification was widely accepted by the early 19th century and is still the basic framework for all taxonomy in the biological sciences today.
