Caecilitaとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Caecilita iwokramae is a species of caecilian in the family Caeciliidae. It belongs to the monotypic genus Caecilita. It is one of two caecilian species known to be lungless, but unlike Atretochoana eiselti it is small and terrestrial. It is differentiated from other caecilians by its lack of nostrils, and by other anatomical traits. The holotype, found in Guyana, in the scrub of Iwokrama Forest, was 11.2 centimetres (4.4 in) in length, with 102 annuli. Its colour in life was not recorded, but in preservative it was light yellow-brown with mottling.
