KILLI-DATA ENCYCLOPEDIA

To directly show, below, the concerned snapshot of a given name, click on link in alphabetical left menu with reversed names (quicker access by first letters, in menu above). Presently valid species names are listed with (O) if oviparous sp. and (V) if viviparous (or ovoviviparous) sp., generic names are not tagged as valid or not since it is varying frequently (in Killi-Data, it always corresponds to latest published evidence, and not to opinions, published or not).

 

Reversed name (cf. legends and abbreviations in MODEL): confluentus F.
