Coenobita
land hermit crabs, terrestrial hermit crabs
Coenobita is a genus of terrestrial hermit crabs comprising 21 species distributed primarily in tropical and subtropical coastal regions. Unlike marine hermit crabs, these species have adapted to life on land while maintaining a critical dependence on the sea for reproduction and shell acquisition. They inhabit empty gastropod shells to protect their soft, asymmetrical abdomens and carry water within their shells to prevent desiccation. The genus is closely related to the coconut crab (Birgus latro), with both genera forming the family Coenobitidae. Several species are popular in the pet trade.
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.

puritana
Puritan tiger beetle
Ellipsoptera puritana, the Puritan tiger beetle, is a federally threatened species endemic to a highly restricted range in the northeastern United States. Adults are medium-sized, fast-running predators with distinctive cream-white marginal markings on their elytra. The species occupies a narrow ecological niche: sandy beaches and riverbanks backed by eroding cliffs or bluffs, where larvae burrow into exposed sediment faces. Its two-year life cycle involves larval development in burrows followed by brief adult emergence in mid-summer. Habitat loss from shoreline development, dam construction, and bank stabilization has severely reduced populations, prompting intensive conservation efforts including captive rearing programs.
Languria
lizard beetles
Languria is a genus of lizard beetles (Coleoptera: Erotylidae: Languriinae) established by Latreille in 1802. The genus contains approximately 15-18 described species distributed primarily in North America and the Oriental Region. Members are characterized by their association with plant stems, where larvae develop as internal borers. Several species have been documented as agricultural pests when they colonize cultivated crops outside their native host range.
Palaemon vulgaris
Marsh Grass Shrimp, Common American Prawn, Common Grass Shrimp, Marsh Shrimp
Palaemon vulgaris is a small, transparent caridean shrimp native to the western Atlantic Ocean. Adults reach less than 5 cm in length and display distinctive orange pigmentation on the eyestalks. The species has been studied for its specialized swimming mechanics, employing metachronal beating of pleopods and drag-reducing mechanisms during locomotion. It occupies coastal and estuarine habitats from Cape Cod Bay to the Gulf of Mexico.

Pulvinariella is a genus of soft scale insects (Coccidae) established by Borchsenius in 1953. The genus includes species that are specialist phloem-feeders on succulent plants, particularly ice-plants in the genera Carpobrotus and Mesembryanthemum. Pulvinariella mesembryanthemi has been extensively studied as a potential biocontrol agent for invasive Carpobrotus species in coastal ecosystems. These scales exhibit density-dependent population dynamics and are influenced by host plant nitrogen and water conditions.
