Tomopteris (Neo-Latin from Greek meaning "a cut" + "wing" but taken to mean "fin")[2] is a genus of marine planktonic polychaete. If disturbed it can make a flurry of glowing sparks erupt from its parapodia, and it is one of the only marine creatures with yellow bioluminescence.[3]

Scientific classification or biological classification is a method by which biologists group and categorize species of organisms. Scientific classification also can be called scientific taxonomy, but should be distinguished from folk taxonomy, which lacks scientific basis.
