Flora and fauna mean plants and animals. These two forms of life along with other life forms constitute a biota.
The word “flora” is used to designate plant life. The word “flora” is derived from the Latin name of Flora, the goddess of plants, flowers. Flora was a symbol of nature and flowers and fertility in Roman mythology.
Fauna is all of the animal life. Fauna’s name derived from “to favour, nurture,” because it was believed by the ancient Roman religion that Fauna is the goddess who nurtures all that is useful to living creatures.
