Periclimenes dardanicola chiefly white, with red along the edges of the carapace and the abdominal somites. The legs are transparent yellow, with red bands. "P. dardanicola" is associated with the sea anemone "Calliactis", which is carried by hermit crabs of the genus "Dardanus", including "Dardanus arrosor", "D. crassimanus", "D. lagopodes" and "D. pedunculatus". This is one of the few examples of ecological associations between two species of decapod crustaceans. Specimens of "Periclimenes dardanicola" have been collected from various locations in the western Pacific Ocean, namely Suruga Bay (Japan), Vietnam, and Borneo (Indonesia). Although only formally described in 2006, this species has been
History of manifolds and varieties spaces with a differentiable or topological structure, while "variety" refers to spaces with an algebraic structure, as in algebraic varieties. In Romance languages, manifold is translated as "variety" – such spaces with a differentiable structure are literally translated as "analytic varieties", while spaces with an algebraic structure are called "algebraic varieties". Thus for example, the french word "" means topological manifold. In the same vein, the Japanese word "" (tayōtai) also encompasses both manifold and variety. ("" (tayō) means various.) Ancestral to the modern concept of a manifold were several important results of 18th and 19th century mathematics. The oldest
