The Ardsley Country Club is a country club in the Ardsley-on-Hudson neighborhood of the village of Irvington, New York . It was founded in August 1895 to "cater to industrialists" such as Amzi Barber, J. P. Morgan, John D. and William Rockefeller, and Cornelius Vanderbilt II.  It has been called "one of the grandest country clubs ever built" and "a symbol of the gilded age" where robber barons and the established rich of old New York mixed.

Country club
A country club is a privately owned club, often with a membership quota and admittance by invitation or sponsorship, that generally offers both a variety of recreational sports and facilities for dining and entertaining.  Typical athletic offerings are golf, tennis, and swimming. Where golf is the principal or sole sporting activity, and especially outside of the United States and Canada, it is common for a country club to be referred to simply as a golf club. Many country clubs offer other new activities such as pickleball, and platform tennis.

Country clubs are most commonly located in city outskirts or suburbs, because of the need for substantial grounds for outdoor activities.  This factor distinguishes them from an urban athletic club.

Country clubs originated in Scotland and first appeared in the US in the early 1880s. Country clubs had a profound effect on expanding suburbanization and are considered to be the precursor to gated community development.

No teeth were ascribed to the taxon, but in the same horizon the tooth taxon Qianodus was found, and these taxa may be synonymous. In a phylogenetic analysis accompanying the description, it was placed in a clade with Climatius, Parexus, and Ptomacanthus.

Scleral ring
The scleral ring (also sclerotic ring) is a hardened ring of plates, often derived from bone, found in the eye of animals in several groups of vertebrates. Mammals, amphibians, snakes, and crocodilians lack scleral rings. The ring is in the fibrous outer layer of the eye, called the sclera.

Scleral rings can be made of cartilaginous material (scleral cartilage) or bony material (scleral ossicles), or often a combination of both, that comes together to form a ring. The arrangement, size, shape, and number of ossicles vary by group. They are believed to have a role in supporting the eye, especially in animals whose eyes are not spherical, or which live underwater.
