    The African Telatelist Newsletter 189 of the African Telately Association – March 2014. ___________________________________________________________________________ Bonaire (C.Edwards) Bonaire (/bɒ ˈ nɛ ər/; Dutch: Bonaire, Papiament u: Boneiru) is a Caribbean island that, with the uninhabited islet of Klein Bonaire nestled in its western crescent, forms a special municipality (officially public body) of the Netherlands. Together with Aruba and Curaçao it forms a group referred to as the ABC islands of the Leeward Antilles, the southern island chain of the Lesser Antilles. The name Bonaire is thought to have originally come from the Caquetio word 'Bonay'. The early Spanish and Dutch modified its spelling to Bojnaj and also Bonaire, which means "Good Air". Coat of Arms Bonaire's capital is Kralendijk. Original inhabitants Bonaire's earliest known inhabitants were the Caquetio Indians, a branch of the Arawak who came by canoe from Venezuela in about 1000 CE. Archeological remains of Caquetio culture have been found at certain sites northeast of Kralendijk and near Lac Bay. Caquetio rock paintings and Location of Bonaire (circled in Red) petroglyphs have been preserved in caves at Spelonk, Onima, Ceru Pungi, and Ceru Crita- Coordinates: 12°9′N 68°16′W Cabai. The Caquetios were apparently a very tall people, for the Spanish name for the ABC Bonaire was part of the Netherlands Antilles until Islands was 'las Islas de los Gigantes' or 'the the country's dissolution on 10 October islands of the giants. 2010, when the island (including Klein Bonaire) became a special municipality within the country European arrival of the Netherlands.

  • The Nature and Role of Pigments of Marine Invertebrates†
    REVIEW www.rsc.org/npr | Natural Product Reports The nature and role of pigments of marine invertebrates† Wickramasinghe M. Bandaranayake Received (in Cambridge, UK) 15th December 2005 First published as an Advance Article on the web 14th March 2006 DOI: 10.1039/b307612c Covering: 1980 to 2005 Marine animals, especially those from tropical waters, are often brilliantly coloured, and bright colouration is widespread in both sessile and non-sessile invertebrates. These spectacular natural colours are common in species inhabiting shallow waters, and appear not only in animals exposed to bright light, but also in those living in dark areas where colours are visible only with artificial illumination. Marine organisms also show variation in colour with depth and geographical location, and display great variety in colour patterning. These colour characteristics are the result of several different processes, and serve various purposes – the distribution and function of pigments seems to vary between invertebrate groups. In addition to playing an important role in how marine organisms interact, pigments may be involved in physiological processes. Although nitrogenous pigments predominate, marine organisms contain pigments belonging to all the major strutural classes of natural products, as well as some that are unique to the marine environment. This review discusses the nature and significance of such pigments, the chemical and biological processes involved, the factors responsible for and affecting bright colourations, as well as their evolution

This group is known as free-living and parasitic flatworms. However, the free-living species are formerly included into Turbellaria, which is mostly non-parasitic (Ehlers & Sopott-Ehlers, (1995). The only have parasitic species are Trematoda, Cestoda, and Monogenea (Çınar, 2014). Nudibranchs and their relatives are also known as sea slugs.
