Aromobates capurinensis

***Aromobates capurinensis*** (common name: **Sierra Nevada rocket frog**) is a species of frog in the Aromobatidae family. It is endemic to the Sierra Nevada de Mérida, Venezuela.[2] Its natural habitats are cloud forests. The male protects the eggs that are laid on land. After hatching, the male carries the tadpoles on his back to water where they develop further.[1]

*Aromobates capurinensis* is threatened by habitat loss caused by agriculture, involving both crops and livestock, as well as by logging. Introduced trout are also a threat.[1]
Autocrusher

**Autocrusher** (オートクラッシャー *Ōtokurasshā*) is proof that age and experience don't always lead to wisdom. The oldest of the Autorollers, Autocrusher has fought the most battles and crushed the most enemies beneath his treads, and all with the same airtight strategy: Brute force. Autocrusher prefers to plow through his foes like a juggernaut and considering he's lived longer than most Predacons, one can't really argue against his game plan.

Like all the Autorollers, Autocrusher is rivals with an opposite among the Insectrons. In his case, it's Powerhug, another big bruiser who fancies himself as an immovable object. The two are always eager to match strength, though Autocrusher has a few more years on Powerhug as a bulldozing brute, which tends to give him the edge.

His name is also spelled **Autocrasher**.[1]
Aries (astrology)

**Aries** (**♈**) /ˈɛəriːz/ (meaning "ram") is the first astrological sign in the zodiac, spanning the first 30 degrees of celestial longitude (0°≤ *λ* <30°). Under the tropical zodiac, the Sun transits this sign mostly from March 21 to April 20 each year. This time duration is exactly the first month of Solar Hejri calendar (Hamal/Farvardin). The symbol of the ram is based on the Chrysomallus, the flying ram that provided the Golden Fleece.[2]

According to the tropical system of astrology, the Sun enters the sign of Aries when it reaches the northern vernal equinox, which occurs around March 21. Because the Earth takes approximately 365.25 days to go around the Sun, the precise time of the equinox is not the same each year, and generally will occur about 6 hours later each year, with a jump of a day (backwards) on leap years. Since 1900 the vernal equinox date has ranged from March 20 at 08h (2000) GMT to March 21 at 19h (1903) GMT.[3] March 19 at 23:20 will occur in 2044 UT1.[1] In contrast, under the sidereal zodiac, the sun currently transits Aries from April 15 to 14 May (approximately).

Aries is the first fire sign in the zodiac, the other fire signs being Leo and Sagittarius. Individuals born between these dates, depending on which system of astrology they subscribe to, may be called *Arians* or *Ariens*.[4]

The equivalent in the Hindu solar calendar is Meṣa.[5]
Ballbuster Vale

A one-person wrestling team and cheerleading squad, "Ballbuster" knows a variety of suspicious ways to defeat her opponents and rile up her many fans.

Acrobatic, perky and strong as a train on growth hormones, Ballbuster leaps over and around the ring, befuddling the poor fools that try to fight her. Her signature move involves a spin so fast it'll make your watch go backwards.
Aublysodon

***Aublysodon*** (uncertain derivation; perhaps "backwards-flowing tooth"?) is a genus of carnivorous dinosaurs known only from the Judith River Formation in Montana, which has been dated to the late Campanian age of the late Cretaceous period (about 75 million years ago). The only currently recognized species, ***Aublysodon mirandus***, was named by paleontologist Joseph Leidy in 1868. It is now considered dubious, because the type specimen consists only of an isolated premaxillary (front) tooth. Although this specimen is now lost, similar teeth have been found in many US states, western Canada, and Asia.[1] These teeth almost certainly belong to juvenile tyrannosaurine tyrannosaurids, but most have not been identified to species level. However, it is likely that the type tooth (and therefore the name *Aublysodon mirandus* itself) belongs to one of the species in the genus *Daspletosaurus*, which was present in contemporary formations, and which matches specific details of the original tooth.[2] The synapomorphies alleged to distinguish the Aublysodontinae, especially lack of serrations on premaxillary teeth could have been caused by tooth wear in life, postmortem abrasion, or digestion.[3]Most other "aublysodontine"-type teeth may be from ontogenetic stages or sexual morphs of other tyrannosaurids.[3]

Apart from the type species *Aublysodon mirandus* over the years several other species have been named. These are now all considered either dubious or identical to other species or as having no close connection to *A. mirandus*.
Aurora

Aurora is the niece of Master Eon. For years, he tried to keep her identity a secret so that she would remain safe from harm. But as she grew older, Aurora wanted nothing more than to become a Skylander, but Eon would not permit it. So without telling him, she wore a disguise and studied swordplay and combat arts under the name "Boss Blades McSlashinator." Soon, everyone was talking about this new mysterious hero and her amazing abilities. Even Master Eon was notably impressed, but when he learned the skilled fighter was none other than his own niece, he once again refused her entry into the Skylanders team. However, before she could protest, Eon smiled and told her it was because he was immediately promoting her to his Sensei program, where she would train the Swashbuckler Class under her true name and identity. Although he did later admit that "Boss Blades McSlashinator" sounded pretty cool.
Bakonydraco

***Bakonydraco*** is a genus of pterodactyloid pterosaur of the Santonian-age Upper Cretaceous Csehbánya Formation of the Bakony Mountains, Iharkút, Veszprém, western Hungary.

The genus was named in 2005 by David Weishampel, Attila Ősi and Jianu Coralia. The type species is *Bakonydraco galaczi*. The genus name refers to the Bakony Mountains and to Latin *draco*, "dragon". The specific epithet*galaczi* honors Professor András Galácz, who helped the authors in the Iharkút Research Program, where fossils are since 2000 found in open-pit mining of bauxite, among them the remains of pterosaurs, the first ever discovered in Hungary.
Aristurtle

The Aristurtle is a dull mint green colour, with visibly darker spots on its head and flippers. Its shell is a soft brown colour, however it is mostly covered by a white robe which hangs around the Aristurtle's left 'shoulder'. The robe fades slightly into a cool grey towards the hind end, with vertical lines also slowly becoming more evident towards the rear. Its face features white hair atop its head, bushy white eyebrows, a relatively thin white moustache, which is in two pieces, and a trademark Aristotle beard.
Argentinosaurus

***Argentinosaurus*** (meaning "Argentine lizard") is a genus of titanosaur sauropod dinosaur first discovered by Guillermo Heredia in Argentina. The generic name refers to the country in which it was discovered. The dinosaur lived on the then-island continent of South America somewhere between 97 and 93.5 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous Period. It is among the largest known dinosaurs.
Aublysodon the Super Fire

Aublysozord is a Super Fire Zord but despite his super powers like the other Super Zords he is smaller than a T-rex.

He maybe smaller then rex the T-rexzord but he can use Super Fire powers.

He maybe a bad tempered zord he always he help his brothers and sisters.

He is one of the strongest and the baddest of the zords but like the other zords he is good.
Astroblast

While on a secret mission in troll territory, Astroblast crash landed on a remote island where he stumbled upon an ancient relic not seen in thousands of years - a legendary Rift Engine. These magical machines were believed to have the power to travel through the portals between Skylands and other worlds! Shortly after the discovery, an army of trolls appeared on a nearby canyon ridge and quickly charged toward Astroblast. Knowing that the Rift Engine would be very dangerous in the wrong hands, he pulled out his pulse laser and prepared to defend the relic against the incoming horde. After an epic shootout, the trolls fled in defeat. When Astroblast then brought the relic back to his ship, the Sun Runner, it surged with power and a hologram of Master Eon appeared. Eon thanked him for saving the Rift Engine and beckoned him to return it to the Skylander Academy. Astroblast accepted the invitation and was made a Skylander shortly thereafter.
Anomaloglossus breweri

***Anomaloglossus breweri*** is a species of frogs in the Aromobatidae family. It is only know from its type locality, Aprada-tepui in the Bolívar state of southeastern Venezuela.[3] This species was discovered by scientists exploring the inaccessible and remote region of Aprada-tepui. The distinctive features of this species are its particular skin pattern, absence of fringes on fingers, moderate toe webbing, tongue characteristics and yellow and orange coloration on its undersides. It is a fast-moving frog that lives along creeks and in quiet pools along small streams along the slopes near the cave.[4] The frog is named for Charles Brewer-Carías who collected the frog.[2]
Australian weasel shark

The **Australian weasel shark** (*Hemigaleus australiensis*) is an uncommon species of ground shark in the family Hemigaleidae. It inhabits shallow waters off northern Australia to a depth of 170 m (560 ft); smaller sharks frequent sand and seagrass habitat and shift to coral reefs as they grow older. A slim, drab species reaching a length of 1.1 m (3.6 ft), it has sickle-shaped fins with dark tips on the second dorsal fin and caudal fin upper lobe. Its upper teeth are broad with strong serrations only on the trailing edge. The lateral line along each side is prominent and exhibits a downward curve below the second dorsal fin.

Feeding almost exclusively on octopuses and other cephalopods, the Australian weasel shark mostly hunts near the sea floor. It is viviparous, with the developing embryos nourished through a placental connection and born after a six-month gestation period. This species is productive for a shark, with females bearing litters of 1–19 pups usually twice per year. The Australian weasel shark is caught by trawl and to a lesser extent gillnet and longline fisheries, though not in such numbers that its population is threatened. Thus, it has been listed as Least Concern by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
Artemis Dragon

*Aptly named after the Greek goddess of the hunt, the Artemis Dragon has long been sought after by humans for its innate knowledge of the wild and ability to sense the presence of other wildlife. In addition to those attributes, the Artemis Dragon is also considered one of the most beautiful creatures ever to walk the forests.*
Ballistamon

**Ballistamon** is a Machine Digimon. It is a heavyweight Digimon that possesses bulky metallic armor and overwhelming power. It appears warlike at first glance, but because of its gentle personality, preferring harmony to conflict, it will never attack first. However, if it gets into a fight, it becomes a powerful and matchless fighter that swings its stout arms and wipes out the opponent. With its heavy armor and great power, its potential for both offense and defense is great, and if it connects with a hit then it doesn't quit, although its specialty is a one-hit knockout attack which capitalizes on its great power. However, its too-heavy body can be its ruin and there is a problem with its keenness, so it is not very good at fighting with fast-moving opponents. The horn on its head is its pride, and though the horn becomes the essence of its close-combat attacks, it hates for the horn to be carelessly touched. Also, Ballistamon is able to lend its heavy armor and power to another Digimon by changing into its "Enhanced-armor Mode" (強化装甲形態 *Kyoukasoukou Keitai*?).[5]
Archegosaurus

***Archegosaurus*** is a genus of temnospondyl amphibian which lived during the Asselian to Wuchiapingian stages of the Permian, around 299-253 million years ago. The remains of this animal, consisting of at least 90 partial skeletons (mostly skulls), have been found in Germany. The name *Archegosaurus* was coined by Goldfuss in 1847. *Archegosaurus* is a member of Archegosauridae and gives its name to the family.
Atlas Dragon

*Atlas Dragons carry the weights of tiny little worlds on their shoulders. On every Atlas Dragon is a miniature ecosystem, complete with microscopic flora and fauna. All that extra weight can be bothersome at times, but Atlas Dragons bear the burden proudly, happy to have the responsibility. Remember: if you're caring for an Atlas Dragon, you're also caring for an entire civilization! Be mindful of your wee world when you're finding a home for your Atlas Dragon. If you put your Atlas dragon near Fire Dragons, it means global warming for the Atlas Dragon. If your Atlas Dragon is near a Poison Dragon, the little world becomes polluted. Atlas Dragons never migrate far from where they were hatched. If they did, the ecosystems on their heads would change drastically. For example, if Atlas Dragons fly too high, the worlds on their heads freeze over, causing snowstorms on a global scale. Amazingly, the global growths on Atlas Dragons' heads bear a remarkable resemblance to Earth. This has led some philosophers to believe that these Dragons carry exact replicas of Earth, right down to the people and dragons,on their shoulders, seemingly creating tiny dimensions! Perhaps even this Earth exists on the back of a colossal Atlas Dragon! But that couldn't be true... could it?*
Atopodentatus

***Atopodentatus*** is an extinct genus of marine reptile, possibly basal sauropterygian, known from the early Middle Triassic (Pelsonian substage, Anisian stage) of Luoping County, Yunnan Province, southwestern China. It contains a single species, ***Atopodentatus unicus***.[1]It is thought to have lived between 247 and 240 million years ago, during the Middle Triassic period, about six million years after the Permian extinction.[2][3][4] Atopodentatus was herbivorous marine reptile, usually marine reptiles are omnivores or carnivores.[3]

A near complete skeleton along with a left lateral portion of the skull were discovered near Daaozi village, Yunnan, China. The scientific name derives from the peculiar zipper-shaped morphology of the holotype specimen's jaws and unique dentition.[2] However, two fossil skulls discovered in 2016 indicate that the holotype skull was badly damaged, and that the living animal actually had a hammer-shaped head with shovel-like jaws.[5]
Baliton

Baliton merges with Wilda during battles. Like Wilda, he is slow to move, but he uses his massive weight to crush his foe. His brown exterior is the perfect camouflage when battling in the desert. Horns cover his body from head to tail, and his multi-horned tail with sharp nails at the end can swing around like a baseball bat.
AtlurBallistamon

**AtlurBallistamon** is a Machine Digimon. It is a digivolution of Ballistamon that has assimilated electromagnetic armor into its thickened metallic body, and become able to reduce damage with magnetism and attack with electrical discharges. Combined with AtlurBallistamon's kindhearted personality, it stands in the way of its enemies as a protective wall for defending its comrades on the battlefield.
Ashy gecko

The **ashy gecko** (*Sphaerodactylus elegans*) is a species of gecko native to Cuba (including Isla de la Juventud) and Hispaniola (Haiti, including Gonâve Island and Grand Cayemite).[1] It is a small species, dark in color with many white spots. It is also a good climber. Ashy geckos have been introduced in southern Florida, and have well established populations.[2]
Bambiraptor

***Bambiraptor*** is a Late Cretaceous, 72-million-year-old, bird-like dromaeosaurid theropod dinosaur described by scientists at the University of Kansas, Yale University, and the University of New Orleans.

The holotype fossil is less than one meter long, although this specimen appears to be a juvenile,[1] and it is possible that *Bambiraptor* is really just a juvenile *Saurornitholestes*. Because of its small size, it was named *Bambiraptor feinbergi*, after the familiar Disney movie character, the name literally translates to "Bambi thief" and the surname of the wealthy family who bought and lent the specimen to the new Graves Museum of Natural History in Florida.
Backstop (Cybertron)

A wise elder of Animatron, the Jungle Planet, Backstop sought enlightenment beyond the boundaries of his world. But when he returned, he found himself focused not on the things he'd learned offworld, but on the strife of his people. Thus, he attempted to teach a new generation of Transformers what he learned and the ways of peace, only to see his brightest pupil, Scourge, succumb to the evils of tyranny.
Astro Squad

The Micromaster Combiner **Astro Squad** is a self-sufficient deep-space exploration and battle team, the Autobots' first line of defense. They take pride in their capacity for great speed; in fact, it is said that they can travel at the speed of light, and also that they can traverse galaxies in seconds. (We must assume either that one claim is exceedingly modest, or that the other is a massive exaggeration.) Whatever the case, their speed is not always an advantage, as they sometimes overshoot their destinations. Luckily, it's not their only ability: Their cyclonic steel coating is impenetrable to Decepticon photon blasts, plus they can use an anti-gravitational device to nullify tractor beams. Defensive maneuvers are aided by a micro-circuitry array that also assists in exploratory operations.[1]

The six squad members are:

* Barrage and Heave the radar rover
* Phaser and Blast Master the Space Shuttle
* Moonrock and Missile Master the rocket transport
Arizonasaurus

***Arizonasaurus*** was a ctenosauriscid archosaur from the Middle Triassic (243 million years ago).[1] *Arizonasaurus* is found in the Middle Triassic Moenkopi Formation of northern Arizona. A fairly complete skeleton was found in 2002 by Sterling Nesbitt. The taxon has a large sailback formed by elongate neural spines of the vertebrae. The type species, *Arizonasaurus babbitti*, was named by Samuel Paul Welles in 1947.
Archelomon

**Archelomon** is a Reptile Digimon whose name and design are derived from the *Archelon*. It armor-digivolved due to the "Digi-Egg of Reliability". It has the appearance of a large sea turtle, and both of its flippers have become sharp like knives. It doesn't move around particularly quickly even underwater, and has a carefree personality, but because it has sharp fore-flippers and a sturdy shell, it's rarely assaulted by the enemy.
Armor Dragon

*The scales of an Armor Dragon are made of one of the toughest known materials, meaning that these dragons are the most durable around. Denting their hide is almost impossible, which is likely why many young Armor Dragons are daredevils who perform stunts that most other dragons would shy away from.*
Association of Southeast Asian Nations

The **Association of Southeast Asian Nations** (**ASEAN** /ˈɑːsi.ɑːn/ ***AH**-see-ahn*, /ˈɑːzi.ɑːn/ ***AH**-zee-ahn*) is a regional intergovernmental organisation comprising ten Southeast Asian states which promotes Pan-Asianism and intergovernmental cooperation and facilitates economic, political, military, educational and cultural integration amongst its members and Asian states. Since its formation on 8 August 1967 by Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Toonatopia, the organisation's membership has expanded to include Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Vietnam, and with Toonatopia's help, Bangladesh, East Timor, Fiji, Hong Kong, Macau, the Maldives, the Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Palau, Panau, Papua New Guinea, Taiwan, and Vanuatu. Its principal aims include accelerating economic growth, social progress, and sociocultural evolution among its members, alongside the protection of regional stability and the provision of a mechanism for member countries to resolve differences peacefully. ASEAN is an official United Nations Observer. Communication by members across nations takes place in English.

In this timeline, Toonatopia is a member of this organization.

Argentine black and white tegu

The **Argentine black and white tegu** (*Salvator merianae*), also called the **Argentine giant tegu**,[1] is the largest species of tegu lizard.[4] They are an omnivorous species which inhabits the tropical rain forests, savannas, and semi-deserts of east and central South America.

Argentine tegus have unusually high intelligence. It has been observed and recorded that some will regularly and clearly seek out human affection, just as a dog or cat might. Some form a strong attachment to their keeper. Some have been reported to come on command; they can also be house-broken.

Like many other reptiles, Argentine tegus go into brumation (a form of hibernation) in autumn when the temperature drops. They exhibit a high level of activity during their wakeful period of the year.

Tegus fill ecological niches similar to those of monitor lizards, and are an example of convergent evolution.
Arocknid

The Arocknid is a Piñata introduced in the original *Viva Piñata*. It is a green-and-purple spider with an orange line across its abdomen. Arocknids have green hair, eight legs, and four eyes. Their hair is striped with an orange diamond pattern all along the body, with purple bands on their neck and legs.
Bananaquit

The **bananaquit** (*Coereba flaveola*) is a species of passerine bird of uncertain relation. It is tentatively placed in the tanager family. Its classification is debated, and it is often placed in its own family: **Coerebidae**. It has recently been suggested the bananaquit should be split into three species, but this has yet to receive widespread recognition. This small, active nectarivore is found in warmer parts of the Americas, and is generally common.
Baltimartyria

***Baltimartyria*** is an extinct genus of primitive metallic moths in the family Micropterigidae.[1] The genus is solely known from the Early Eocene[2] Baltic amber deposits in the Baltic Sea region of Europe.[1] The genus currently contains two described species, ***Baltimartyria proavitella*** and ***Baltimartyria rasnitsyni***.[1]
Aries (fantasy forest story)

"Hailing from the endless cosmos above, Aries are defenders for individuals born between March 21st and April 19th. These courageous creatures are determined, confident, and enthusiastic in their approach to life. While living with an optimistic attitude, they are known to be impatient and impulsive animals, often without looking before they leap."
Arctic wolf

The **Arctic wolf** (*Canis lupus arctos*), also known as the **Melville Island wolf**,[4] is a subspecies of gray wolf native to the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, from Melville Island to Ellesmere Island.[4] It is a medium-sized subspecies, distinguished from the northwestern wolf by its smaller size, its whiter coloration, its narrower braincase,[5] and larger carnassials.[6] Since 1930, there has been a progressive reduction in size in Arctic wolf skulls, which is likely the result of wolf-dog hybridization.[6]
Bakony

**Bakony** is a mountainous region in Transdanubia, Hungary. It forms the largest part of the Transdanubian Mountains. It is located north of Lake Balaton and lies almost entirely in Veszprém county.

The Bakony is divided into the Northern and Southern Bakony through the Várpalota-Veszprém-Ajka-Devecserline. (706 m) high Kőris-hegy in the Northern Bakony is the highest peak of the range. Other high mountains are Som-hegy (649 m), Középső-Hajag (646 m), Öreg-Futóné (576 m) in the Northern Bakony, and Kab-hegy(599 m), Üsti-hegy (536 m) and Agár-tető (511 m) in Southern Bakony.

Zirc is often called the *Capital of the Bakony* because it is located in the center of the Northern Bakony. The Bakony Museum is located there and introduces visitors to the animals, plants and minerals of the Bakony.
Arid Dragon

*When you're an itty bitty thing like the arid dragon, it helps to have some extra armor on your side. It seems these dragons employ a magical exoskeleton to avoid being tromped on by their bigger brethren. If ever you're wandering Sandara Desert and see these empty exoskeletons lying about, fear not! Like little Valers outgrowing their school robes, sometimes the arid dragon needs to upgrade its duds.*
Argentine horned frog

The **Argentine horned frog** (*Ceratophrys ornata*), also known as the **Argentine wide-mouthed frog** or **ornate pacman frog**, is the most common species of horned frog, from the grasslands of Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil. A voracious eater, it will attempt to swallow anything that moves close to its wide mouth, such as insects, and rodents, lizards and other frogs, even if this predator would suffocate in the process. It is also kept as an exotic pet. The nickname "pacman frog" is a reference to the popular 1980's arcade game *Pac-Man*, where Pac-Man himself eats quite a lot, and has a mouth that takes up most of its body, much like the Argentine horned frog.
Armordillo

**Armordillo** is a master mechanic and explosives expert who carts a vast array of tools and devices around beneath his heavily armored shell. His specialty is constructing brilliantly elaborate traps and then waiting silently and patiently (with a patience that borders on supernatural in his comrades' eyes) for however many days or weeks it takes for a Predacon to stumble into it. His satisfaction when they inevitably do makes it all worthwhile. In addition to his tools and devices he has an impressive optic array, a hidden laser weapon, and a Morningstar melee weapon that combined with his heavy armor make up for the fact that he moves extremely slowly.
Autostinger

The leader of the Autorollers, **Autostinger** (オートスティンガー *Ōtosutingā*) is a mercenary by trade and a mercenary by attitude. More opportunistic than bloodthirsty, Autostinger will grant mercy to a foe on the battlefield if it means putting them in his debt; a debt he always intends to collect sooner or later. Ironically, he has recently become the victim of the same honor-bound servitude which he once inflicted upon his enemies. The New Emperor of DestructionGalvatron spared him from execution, and now the formerly mighty mercenary must work as a construction officer until his debt is repaid.

Like the rest of the Autorollers, Autostinger maintains a rivalry with the Insectrons. Specifically, he's at odds with Bigmos, another ex-mercenary who became indebted to Autostinger after a particularly messy battlefield encounter.
Aurora Glacier

**Aurora Glacier** is the seventeenth level of *Donkey Kong Jungle Beat* and the first area of the Cherry Kingdom. Auroras can be seen in the outside portion of the level, hence the name. Donkey Kong has less traction on this stage and can easily slide across the icy floors. Ice Bakkies attack Donkey Kong here, causing him to freeze as well if hit. The stage also features some Helper Monkeys, who toss Donkey Kong to new areas. Although it appears to be very chilly in this level, Donkey Kong is able to swim in the underwater areas of it. Two mini-bosses are encountered in this level as well, and they include a set of two Coco Pigs, who throw coconuts and ice balls at the ape from trees, and a Rolling Frog. At the end of the level, Donkey Kong is able to bite into a cherry bunch to end the level.

This level shares its music with Ice Warren.
Atlantic blue marlin

The **Atlantic blue marlin** (*Makaira nigricans*) is a species of marlin endemic to the Atlantic Ocean. It is closely related to, and usually considered conspecific with, the Indo-Pacific blue marlin, then simply called blue marlin. Some authorities still consider both species distinct.

The Atlantic blue marlin (hereafter, blue marlin) feeds on a wide variety of organisms near the surface. It uses its bill to stun, injure, or kill while knifing through a school of fish or other prey, then returns to eat the injured or stunned fish. Marlin is a popular game fish. The relatively high fat content of its meat makes it commercially valuable in certain markets. It is the national fish of the Commonwealth of the Bahamasand is featured on its coat of arms.

Blue marlin are distributed throughout the tropical and subtropical waters of the Atlantic Ocean. A bluewater fish that spends the majority of its life in the open sea far from land,[2] the blue marlin preys on a wide variety of marine organisms, mostly near the surface, often using its bill to stun or injure its prey.

Females can grow up to four times the weight of males. The maximum published weight is 818 kg (1,803 lb) and length 5 m (16.4 ft).[3]

Adult blue marlin have few predators apart from killer whales, sharks, and humans. They are sought after as a highly prized game fish by anglers and are taken by commercial fishermen, both as a directed catch and as bycatch in major industrial tuna fisheries. Blue marlin are currently considered a threatened species by the IUCN due to overfishing.[1]

Some other historic English names for the blue marlin are **Cuban black marlin**, **ocean gar**, and **ocean guard**.[4]
Ballot Dragon

*Ballot Dragons are often split on decisions. Each head has strong opinions and they can often be found disagreeing, yet at the end of the day they find mutual ground and can come together to form a unified result. They understand that there are two sides to every coin and to live together they have to understand and work with their other half.*
Baldy Long Legs

**Baldy Long Legs** (ダマグモ?, lit.: "Orb Spider") is an arachnorb that only appears in *Pikmin 3*, and never in story mode. Like other arachnorbs, it is quite large, its only method of attack is crushing Pikmin with its large feet, and its circular core is its weak-point. This creature will aimlessly wander the map, but in the Forgotten Cove, it will stay in its arena. This trait is unique to this arachnorb.
Asbolus verrucosus

***Asbolus verrucosus***, also known as the **desert ironclad beetle** or **blue death feigning beetle**, is a species of darkling beetle native to the deserts of the Southwestern United States, mainly the Sonoran desert.[3] This beetle has been known to feign death when threatened.[4]They are increasingly becoming popular in the pet trade, due to their ease of care, hardiness, and longevity.
Aurochs

The **aurochs** (/ˈɔːrɒks/ or /ˈaʊrɒks/; pl. **aurochs**, or rarely **aurochsen**, **aurochses**), also **urus**, **ure** (*Bos primigenius*), is an extinct species of large wild cattle that inhabited Europe, Asia, and North Africa. It is the ancestor of domestic cattle. The species survived in Europe until the last recorded aurochs died in the Jaktorów Forest, Poland, in 1627.

During the Neolithic Revolution, which occurred during the early Holocene, at least two aurochs domestication events occurred: one related to the Indian subspecies, leading to zebu cattle, and the other one related to the Eurasian subspecies, leading to taurine cattle. Other species of wild bovines were also domesticated, namely the wild water buffalo, gaur, wild yak and banteng. In modern cattle, numerous breeds share characteristics of the aurochs, such as a dark colour in the bulls with a light eel stripe along the back (the cows being lighter), or a typical aurochs-like horn shape.[2]
Axolotl

The **axolotl** (/ˈæksəlɒtəl/, from Classical Nahuatl: ***āxōlōtl*** [aːˈʃoːloːtɬ] ( listen)) also known as a **Mexican salamander** (*Ambystoma mexicanum*) or a **Mexican walking fish**, is a neotenic salamander, closely related to the tiger salamander.[2][3] Although the axolotl is colloquially known as a "walking fish", it is not a fish, but an amphibian. The species originates from numerous lakes, such as Lake Xochimilco underlying Mexico City.[4] Axolotls are unusual among amphibians in that they reach adulthood without undergoing metamorphosis. Instead of developing lungs and taking to the land, adults remain aquatic and gilled.

Axolotls should not be confused with waterdogs, the larval stage of the closely related tiger salamanders (*A. tigrinum* and *A. mavortium*), which are widespread in much of North America and occasionally become neotenic. Neither should they be confused with mudpuppies (*Necturus* spp.), fully aquatic salamanders that are not closely related to the axolotl but bear a superficial resemblance.[5]

As of 2010, wild axolotls were near extinction[6] due to urbanization in Mexico City and consequent water pollution, as well as the introduction of invasive species such as tilapia and perch. They are currently listed by CITES as an endangered species and by IUCN as critically endangered in the wild, with a decreasing population. Axolotls are used extensively in scientific research due to their ability to regenerate limbs.[7] Axolotls were also sold as food in Mexican markets and were a staple in the Aztec diet.[8]

Surveys in 1998, 2003 and 2008 found 6,000, 1,000 and 100 axolotls per square kilometer in its Lake Xochimilco habitat, respectively.[9] A four-month-long search in 2013, however, turned up no surviving individuals in the wild. Just a month later, two wild ones were spotted in a network of canals leading from Xochimilco.[10] The city is currently working on conserving axolotls by building "axolotl shelters" and conserving remaining and potential habitats for the salamanders.
Balk

Balk is the anomaly to the Flexers' intellectual nature. While it is true that he still is pretty smart, he is also very scatterbrained thanks to his abilities not translating to the inside of his head and has a tendency to space out at times probably due to bashing his head a lot. He is the most immature of his tribe, preferring to play rather than show off his smarts.
Argiope (spider)

The genus ***Argiope*** includes rather large spiders that often have a strikingly coloured abdomen. These spiders are distributed throughout the world. Most countries in tropical or temperate climates host one or more species that are similar in appearance. The etymology of *Argiope* is from a Latin word *argentum* meaning silver.[2] The carapace of *Argiope* species is typically covered in silvery hairs.
Astrotrain (G1)

**Astrotrain** loves to sow confusion. To this end, his Triple Changer abilities serve him well. Nothing pleases him more than confronting an Autobot in a dark corner and making him wonder if he's up against one Decepticon or two. He craves having this power over others. Single-minded, you may say, but when most of your time is spent transporting troops around, you have to take your jollies where you can. He wants more from life, but it's either fly the other Decepticons around, or get scrapped by them.

He also craves having power over a massive army of train drones. Follow your dreams, Astrotrain. Follow your dreams.
AncientMegatheriummon

**AncientMegatheriummon** is an Ancient Beast Digimon whose name is derived from "Ancient" and the Megatherium (*Megatherium americanum*) and whose design is derived from the Pelorovis (*Pelorovis oldowayensis*). Possessing the attribute of "Ice", it is one of the Ten Legendary Warriors that saved the ancient Digital World. A Mega who existed only in the distant past, it is said that the power and bravery it possesses can adapt even to the intense cold of the freezing tundra. Its abilities were later passed on to the "Mammal" and "Ice-Snow Digimon".
Arthropleura

***Arthropleura*** (Greek for *jointed ribs*) is a genus of extinct millipede arthropods that lived in what is now northeastern North America and Scotland around 315 to 299 million years ago, during the late Carboniferous Period. The larger species of the genus are the largest known land invertebrates of all time, and would have had few, if any, predators.
Bactrosaurus

***Bactrosaurus*** (/ˌbæktroʊˈsɔːrəs/; meaning "Club lizard," "baktron" = club + *sauros* = lizard) is a genus of herbivorousdinosaur that lived in east China during the late Cretaceous, about 70 mya, though some Bactrosaurus fossils have been dated back to 90 mya. The position *Bactrosaurus* occupies in the Cretaceous makes it one of the earliest known hadrosauroids, and although it is not known from a full skeleton, *Bactrosaurus* is one of the best known of these forms of hadrosaurs predecessors.[1]
Attacus atlas

***Attacus atlas*** (**Atlas moth**) is a large saturniid moth found in the tropical and subtropical forests of Southeast Asia, and is common across the Malay archipelago.[1]

Atlas moths were often considered the largest moths in the world in terms of total wing surface area,[2] but recent sources confer this title upon the Hercules Moth from New Guinea and northern Australia.[3][4] Their wingspans are also among the largest, reaching over 25 cm (9.8 in). Females are appreciably larger and heavier than the males.

Atlas moths are said to be named after either the Titan of Greek mythology, or their map-like wing patterns. In Hong Kong the Cantonese name translates as "snake's head moth", referring to the apical extension of the forewing, which bears a more than passing resemblance to a snake's head.[5] Japan only has the *A. a. ryukyuensis* subspecies which is native to the Yaeyama Islands, principally Yonaguni, and as such is called the *Yonaguni-san* (ヨナグニサン《与那国蚕》, "Yonaguni silkworm"). It is said to be the inspiration for the movie monster Mothra.[6]

The largest lepidopteran in terms of wingspan is considered to be the White Witch, *Thysania agrippina*. A record specimen of *Attacus atlas* from Java measured 262 mm, while *Thysania* are documented to be about 290 mm or more.[1]

In India, Atlas moths are cultivated for their silk in a non-commercial capacity; unlike that produced by the related silkworm moth (*Bombyx mori*), Atlas moth silk is secreted as broken strands. This brown, wool-like silk is thought to have greater durability and is known as *fagara*.[7] Atlas moth cocoons have been employed as purses in Taiwan.[8]
Australia

**Australia** (/ɒˈstreɪliə, ə-/ ( listen)),[10][11] officially the **Commonwealth of Australia**,[12] is a sovereign country comprising the mainland of the Australian continent, the island of Tasmania and numerous smaller islands. It is the largest country in Oceania and the world's sixth-largest country by total area. The neighbouring countries are Papua New Guinea, Indonesia and East Timor to the north; the Solomon Islands and Vanuatu to the north-east; and New Zealand to the south-east. Australia's capital is Canberra, and its largest city is Sydney.

For about 60,000 years before the first British settlement in the late 18th century, Australia was inhabited by indigenous Australians, who in documented times have spoken languages classifiable into roughly 250 groups. After the European discovery of the continent by Dutch explorers in 1606, Australia's eastern half was claimed by Great Britain in 1770 and initially settled through penal transportation to the colony of New South Wales from 26 January 1788. The population grew steadily in subsequent decades, and by the 1850s most of the continent had been explored and an additional five self-governing crown colonies established. On 1 January 1901, the six colonies federated, forming the Commonwealth of Australia. Australia has since maintained a stable liberal democratic political system that functions as a federal parliamentary constitutional monarchy comprising six states and several territories.

Australia has the world's 13th-largest economy and tenth-highest per capita income (IMF).[13] With the second-highest human development index globally, the country ranks highly in quality of life, health, education, economic freedom, and civil liberties and political rights.[14] Australia is a member of the ASEAN Plus mechanism, United Nations, G20, Commonwealth of Nations, ANZUS, Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development(OECD), World Trade Organization, Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation, and the Pacific Islands Forum. The population of 25 million[5] is highly urbanised and heavily concentrated on the eastern seaboard.[15] Australia has the world's 9th largest immigrant population, with immigrants accounting for 26% of the population.[16][17]
Ballistamon Mush Cottage

**Ballistamon Mush Cottage** is the DigiFuse of Ballistamon and Mushroomon. It comes equipped with a "Teppan Soul" griddle, "Mask Freezer" freezer, "Blast Oven" oven, "Armed Conro" stove, and "Face Jukebox" jukebox, the latter which Ballistamon uses to talk. It also has the "Mush Full Coat" which it can lend for anyone to wear.[1]
Badshark

**Badshark** (バッドシャーク  *Baddoshāku*), nicknamed **Bark** (バーク  *Bāku*) for short, is one of the many Beastformers who joined the insurgent army under Alligatron raised by Galvatron in order to aid his Decepticons in conquering the formerly-peaceful planet Beast. His greatest strength is his determination: when Badshark has a goal in mind he will steadily pursue it, making progress step-by-step and never giving up until he has succeeded. This quality saw him rise from a low-ranking underwater soldier at the beginning of the war to the position of general by the end of it, and it was also through pure determination that he learned his special ability to cause storms by manipulating ocean currents. Badshark holds the rank of Emperor of Sheepnia, under King Bombsheep, and was born in Shark Bay.
Azteca (genus)

***Azteca*** is a strictly Neotropical genus of ants in the subfamily Dolichoderinae.[2] The genus is very diverse and contains around 84 extant species and two fossil species. They are essentially arboreal and many species have mutualistic associations with particular plant species, where the genus *Cecropia*presents the most conspicuous association.[3]
Bakudora

Among the demonic Four Oni Predacons, **Bakudora** (バクドーラ *Bakudōra*) is both the fastest and perhaps the most fanatically devoted to his ruler Budora. The Siphon Claw on his tail allows him to replenish his own energy by stealing that of any living thing. He has four horns; now you know how to recognize him at the train station.
Baley Sticks N. Straws

**Baley Sticks N. Straws** is quite possibly Lalaloopsy Land's greatest thinker. She's an over-thinker who always comes up with great ideas. She likes running through cornfields and can grow the biggest pumpkin in Lalaloopsy Land. Her name is based off of common materials found on a farm, such as bales of sticks & straws: The very thing that Baley's inspiration, the classic fictional character, the Scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz, was created from!
Bald eagle

The **bald eagle** (*Haliaeetus leucocephalus*, from Greek *hali* "sea", *aiētos* "eagle", *leuco* "white", *cephalos* "head") is a bird of prey found in North America. A sea eagle, it has two known subspecies and forms a species pair with the white-tailed eagle(*Haliaeetus albicilla*). Its range includes most of Canada and Alaska, all of the contiguous United States, and northern Mexico. It is found near large bodies of open water with an abundant food supply and old-growth trees for nesting.

The bald eagle is an opportunistic feeder which subsists mainly on fish, which it swoops down and snatches from the water with its talons. It builds the largest nest of any North American bird and the largest tree nests ever recorded for any animal species, up to 4 m (13 ft) deep, 2.5 m (8.2 ft) wide, and 1 metric ton (1.1 short tons) in weight.[2] Sexual maturity is attained at the age of four to five years.

Bald eagles are not actually bald; the name derives from an older meaning of the word, "white headed". The adult is mainly brown with a white head and tail. The sexes are identical in plumage, but females are about 25 percent larger than males. The beak is large and hooked. The plumage of the immature is brown.

The bald eagle is both the national bird and national animal of the United States of America. The bald eagle appears on its seal. In the late 20th century it was on the brink of extirpation in the contiguous United States. Populations have since recovered and the species was removed from the U.S. government's list of endangered species on July 12, 1995 and transferred to the list of threatened species. It was removed from the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife in the Lower 48 States on June 28, 2007.
Babiacetus

***Babiacetus*** is an extinct genus of early cetacean that lived during the late Lutetian middle Eocene of India (48.6 to 40.4 million years ago).[1][2] It was named after its type locality, the Harudi Formation[3] in the Babia Hills(23.5°N 68.8°E: paleocoordinates 5.9°N 61.8°E), Kutch District, Gujarat, India.[2]

*Babiacetus* was named by Trivedy & Satsangi 1984 in an abstract based on the specimen's type (GSI 19647, left and right dentaries with cheek teeth).[4] Gingerich and colleagues found a skull (GSP-UM 3005, much of a skull and lower jaws)[4] while collecting a skeleton of a new species of Protosiren (*Protosiren sattaensis*)[5] in the Drazinda Formation (30.8°N 70.5°E, paleocoordinates 16.9°N 67.1°E)[6] in the Sulaiman Range of Punjab, Pakistan. Gingerich et al. 1995 described both the original find and their new specimen.[7] Bajpai & Thewissen 1998 described *B. mishrai* from the specimen (RUSB 2512, a partial skull)[4] collected in the Harudi Formation.[7][8]

*Babiacetus* is one of the larger protocetids.[9] Its hydrodynamic skull and pointed, anteroposteriorly (front-back) oriented incisors are typical of archaeocetes. A densely ossified auditory bulla and large mandibular canal indicate it was adapted for hearing in water.[10] *Babiacetus* differs from pakicetids and ambulocetids (more primitive families) by the large mandibular foramen and a medially concave ascending ramus; distinct from remingtonocetids and basilosauroids (more derived families) by the single-cusped trigonid and talonid on the lower molars.[7] Its long synostotic (fused) mandibular symphysis, which reaches as far back as P2, distinguishes it from *Pappocetus* and *Georgiacetus* (other protocetids). Its auditory bulla is more narrow than *Rodhocetus*'. *Babiacetus* lacks the prominent molar protocone present in *Indocetus*.[11] The anterior premolars are large.[9]

Its large size as well as robust teeth suggest that it fed on larger fishes or aquatic vertebrates, or both. To date, only cranial remains have been found, hence nothing is known of *Babicetus*' mode of locomotion or degree of aquatic adaptation.[10]

The mandible is longer in *B. indicus* than in *B. mishrai*, and P1 is single-rooted in the former but double-rooted in the latter. The diastemata between P1 and P4 in *B. indicus* is absent in *B. mishrai*. *B. indicus* has larger cheek teeth and a larger M3.[11]
Band-tailed nighthawk

The **band-tailed nighthawk** (*Nyctiprogne leucopyga*) is a species of nightjar in the family Caprimulgidae. It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, French Guiana, Guyana, Paraguay, Peru, and Venezuela. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, rivers, and swamps.
Armadillosuchus

***Armadillosuchus*** is an extinct genus of sphagesaurid crocodylomorph. It was described in February 2009 from the Late CretaceousBauru Basin of Brazil.[1] *Armadillosuchus* length was estimated on 2 m (6.6 ft) with a weight of 120 kg.[2]

Sphagesaurids share a number of mammal-like features in their teeth and jaws, although they are unrelated to mammals. *Armadillosuchus* is especially mammal-like in that it had heavy body armor characterized by flexible bands and rigid shields that covered its back, less like the traditional osteoderms that line the backs of most crurotarsans and more like that of a modern armadillo (hence the genus name meaning "armadillo crocodile"). Because of its unique morphology, it is believed to have had a terrestrial and quite possibly fossorial lifestyle.
Azure-shouldered tanager

The **azure-shouldered tanager** (*Thraupis cyanoptera*) is a species of bird in the family Thraupidae. It is found in the Atlantic Forest of eastern Brazil.

Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, subtropical or tropical moist montane forest, and heavily degraded former forest. It is becoming rare due to habitat loss.
