	ADW: What is in a Scientific Name?
		The generic epithet is the name of the genus (singular of genera) to which bluegill sunfish belong, the genus Lepomis.
		The genus is the first level of taxonomic organization, in a way, because all species that are thought to be most closely related, are placed together in a genus.
		An example are "badgers." There are various animals worldwide that are superficially similar, honey badgers (Mellivora capensis), North American badgers (Taxidea taxus), Eurasian badgers (Meles meles), stink badgers (Mydaus javanensis), and ferret badgers (Melogale personata).

		Badgers have distinct markings on their heads; the majority of their face is white, with two fl stripes, one on each side of the head, running laterally across the face, from the nose, over the eyes, to the base of the ears.
		In one subspecies, the Japanese badger (Meles meles anaguma), the markings on their face are restricted to around their eyes, like panda spots, and their coloration tends to be lighter and more flavistic.

		The name is probably derived from badge, device, on account of the marks on the head; or it may be identical with the term separately noticed below, the French blai~reau being used in both senses.
		The members of the typical genus have the lower jaw so articulated to the upper, by means of a transverse condyle firmly locked into a long cavity of the cranium, that dislocation of the jaw is all but impossible, and this enables those creatures to maintain their hold with the utmost tenacity.
		The European badger (Meles taxus or M. meles) is from 25 in; to 29 in.

	The Virtual Sett - The data.
		This badger is distinguished from Meles by its white, rather than fl, throat and by its long and mostly white tail, as distinct from the short tail, colored the same as the back, in Meles.
		The species Meles meles originally occurred throughout Europe, including the British Isles and several Mediterranean islands, and in Asia as far east as Japan and as far south as Palestine, Iran, Tibet, and southern China (Corbet 1978; Long and Killingley 1983).
		On each side of the face is a dark stripe that extends from the tip of the snout to the ear and encloses the eye; white stripes border the dark stripe.

		Type reference for the genus of tapirs; the species used for genus typing was Hippopotamus terrestris, (Linnaeus 1758).
		It is characterized by unequal spicules (64 and 43 microm for the right and left spicules respectively) and fairly large (23 microm) asymmetrical gubernaculum, which distinguish it from the 6 valid species in the genus.
		This genus, as well as the closely related Fitzsimmonsnema, is parasitic in phylogenically distant groups of vertebrates with the common trait of possessing a voluminous gut.
