Kiwawa Plavida is a deep sea leg, a member of the genus Miwa, sometimes called the "snowman club" animal genus.

The crab lives in the cold waters of the deep sea and eats symbiosis Proteobacteria growing on the nails' hair. Bacteria metabolize hydrogen sulfide and methane produced by exudate and are harvested from animal combs. Among the other deep sea animals that use this symbol, this species is unique in that it actively wears its accessory on it. Ventilation supplies more oxygen and nutrients to bacteria

In 2006, William Thurber, William J. Jones, Kareen Schnabel discovered Kiwa puravida. He lived at the coastal depth of 1,000 meters (3,300 feet) in Costa Rica. Kiwa Hilsta is the only other member of the family, a crab with similar nails discovered near Easter Island in 2005. Certain nickname puravida comes from Costa Rica's "pure life" in honor of the places it has found.

As far as I can remember, I am always fascinated by encyclopedia (EOL) and I am very disappointed. EOL (eol.org) began in 2008 with the aim of worthy praise. Anyone can access the internet by digitally indexing every plant, animal, fungus on the planet from children to scientists. Gain a wealth of knowledge about biodiversity. In 2012, I was dissatisfied with the experience of explanation of the new species, I was disappointed with the result of EOL, but I was optimistic and had a strong interest in technology (at that time the iPad was very popular). . I created a model of iOS application called Insecta. It has a simple interface and is focused on jointly displaying various high quality images on the earth. Please contact us for the purpose

One effort to solve our ignorance may be an encyclopedia of life. EoL is an online reference designed to edit an existing database, blend the data with other content gathered from various sources, and edit the resulting "mashup (phrase)" It is a research tool. Create and maintain the most comprehensive guide to all species known to humans. But that does not directly extend our knowledge. There is still a long way to measure the earth. Just explaining all the species on the earth seems to be out of reach of us. Reachable - The All-Foundation Foundation, its goal is to "complete the list of all species on the planet over the next 25 years" and can not achieve the goal of big ideas and small budgets. Besides that, to the best of my knowledge, no other similar effort is seen anywhere.
