Maro is a genus of dwarf spiders in the family Linyphiidae (sheet-web weavers), first described by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1907. These small arachnids belong to the diverse group of linyphiid spiders, which are among the most species-rich spider families globally. The genus is known from limited records in northern Europe.
Mcateeana
Mcateeana is a genus of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae, subfamily Typhlocybinae, established by Christian in 1953. Members of this genus belong to the tribe Typhlocybini, a group of small, delicate leafhoppers often associated with specific host plants. The genus is recognized in the Catalogue of Life and GBIF, with 43 observations recorded on iNaturalist. As with many typhlocybine leafhoppers, species in this genus likely exhibit reduced wing venation and simplified body structures characteristic of this subfamily.
Mea
Mea is a genus of small moths in the family Meessiidae, first described by August Busck in 1906. These moths belong to the order Lepidoptera and are part of the diverse assemblage of tineoid moths. The genus has been recorded from Vermont and other locations in the United States, with 599 observations documented on iNaturalist. Mea was historically classified within Tineidae but is now placed in Meessiidae based on revised taxonomy.
Melanomyza
Melanomyza is a genus of small flies in the family Lauxaniidae, established by Malloch in 1923. The genus contains approximately 9–12 described species. These flies belong to a family known for its diversity in decomposing organic matter habitats. Specific biological details for most Melanomyza species remain poorly documented in published literature.
