Copepoda
copepods
Copepods are small aquatic crustaceans and one of the most abundant and diverse multicellular organisms on Earth. They occupy nearly every aquatic habitat, from marine plankton to deep ocean floors, freshwater lakes, groundwater systems, and even moist terrestrial environments such as leaf litter and bromeliad phytotelmata. The group includes free-living forms as well as highly modified parasites. Copepods are fundamental components of aquatic food webs, serving as critical prey for fish, whales, and other marine life, while also contributing to nutrient cycling and carbon sequestration through the biological pump.

Cordulegaster erronea
tiger spiketail
Cordulegaster erronea, the tiger spiketail, is a large, uncommon dragonfly in the family Cordulegastridae. It is a habitat specialist requiring small, pristine, spring-fed forest streams with muck bottoms and overhanging vegetation. The species has a long larval period estimated at 3-4 years and a brief adult flight period of approximately 2-3 weeks in early summer. Radio-telemetry studies in New Jersey have revealed limited adult movement, with individuals typically remaining within 100-200 meters of natal streams and showing strong site fidelity.

Disholcaspis prehensa
clasping twig gall wasp
Disholcaspis prehensa is a gall-inducing cynipid wasp native to California that induces distinctive galls on scrub oak and leather oak. The species exhibits heterogony, alternating between sexual and asexual generations that produce two morphologically different gall types. The asexual generation forms conspicuous mushroom-shaped twig galls with clasping bases, while the sexual generation produces small, hidden bud galls.

Gyrinidae
Whirligig Beetles
Whirligig beetles (family Gyrinidae) are aquatic beetles that inhabit the surface film of freshwater habitats worldwide. The family comprises approximately 700 extant species in 15 genera. These beetles are instantly recognizable by their habit of swimming rapidly in circles on the water surface when alarmed, a behavior that gives them their common name. They possess divided compound eyes—upper portions adapted for vision above water and lower portions for underwater viewing—a unique adaptation among insects. Members of this family are active predators and scavengers that form conspicuous aggregations or "rafts" on the water surface, which serve defensive functions through enhanced predator detection and possible aposematic signaling.

Leptocheliidae
Leptocheliidae is a family of small, low-mobility crustaceans in the order Tanaidacea, comprising over 30 genera and 140 described species. Members are abundant in shallow marine waters and show high sensitivity to environmental shifts, particularly dissolved oxygen and temperature changes. Global diversity patterns reveal a bimodal latitudinal distribution with peaks in lower latitudes and decline at the equator, with biodiversity hotspots in the Indo-Australian region, Central Indo-Pacific, Gulf of Mexico, and Caribbean. The family serves as an important indicator group for monitoring environmental change in threatened coastal habitats.

Pyraloidea
pyraloid moths, snout moths, Pyralid and Crambid Snout Moths
Pyraloidea is a superfamily of small moths containing approximately 16,000 described species worldwide, with many more likely undescribed. Historically treated as part of the paraphyletic Microlepidoptera, the group now comprises two monophyletic families: Pyralidae (snout moths) and Crambidae (grass moths). The superfamily exhibits the most diverse life history adaptations among all Lepidoptera, with larvae occupying roles as leaf rollers, borers, root feeders, seed feeders, leaf miners, and aquatic specialists.

Tetropium parvulum
Northern Spruce Borer
Tetropium parvulum, the northern spruce borer, is a small cerambycid beetle specialized on spruce hosts. It was elevated from synonymy with T. cinnamopterum based on distinct morphological differences in larvae and adults, and exhibits strict host specificity to Picea compared to the conifer generalist T. cinnamopterum. The species has a one-year life cycle and is an economically important borer of white and Engelmann spruce logs in western Canada.

Zuphiini
Zuphiini is a tribe of ground beetles in the family Carabidae, established by Bonelli in 1810. The tribe contains at least 23 genera and more than 120 described species with a worldwide distribution. Members of the genus Coarazuphium within this tribe include obligate cave-dwelling (troglobitic) species found in iron ore caves in Brazil's Carajás region, which harbors the highest diversity of obligatory cave-dwelling beetles in the country.
