Drepanura californica
Drepanura californica is a species of springtail (Collembola) in the family Entomobryidae. It was described by H. Schött in 1891 and is known from California and other Pacific North American regions. The genus Drepanura is characterized by distinctive morphological features including a furcula with reduced dentes. As an entomobryid springtail, it inhabits soil and leaf litter environments where it contributes to decomposition processes.
Gliaspilota glutinosa
Gliaspilota glutinosa is a species of gall midge in the family Cecidomyiidae, described by Osten Sacken in 1862. As a member of this family, it is likely associated with plant gall formation, though specific host plants and gall morphology remain poorly documented. The species has been recorded from the northeastern United States, with Vermont being a documented location.
Hesperentomon macswaini
Hesperentomon macswaini is a species of proturan described by Price in 1960. Proturans are minute, wingless hexapods that inhabit soil and leaf litter environments. This species belongs to the family Hesperentomidae and has been documented from North America. Like other proturans, it likely lives in concealed soil habitats and feeds on fungal hyphae and decaying organic matter, though specific biological details for this species remain poorly documented.
Isotoma delta
Isotoma delta is a species of springtail (Collembola) in the family Isotomidae, described by MacGillivray in 1896. It belongs to the order Entomobryomorpha, one of the most diverse groups of springtails. The species has been recorded from the Caribbean mainland and southern North America based on distribution data in GBIF.
Machilida
jumping bristletails
Machilida is the living suborder of Archaeognatha that includes the insects commonly called jumping bristletails. It is an ancient, primitively wingless insect lineage; modern sources generally discuss its members under the order Archaeognatha rather than the former broader use of Thysanura.
Olethreutes galaxana
Olethreutes galaxana is a species of tortricid moth described by Kearfott in 1907. It belongs to the genus Olethreutes, a diverse group of small moths commonly known as leafroller moths. The species has been documented in the prairie provinces of Canada. Like other members of its genus, it is likely a small moth with relatively inconspicuous coloration, though specific diagnostic features for this species are not well documented in available sources.
Orchestomerus wickhami
Orchestomerus wickhami is a species of weevil in the family Curculionidae, described by Dietz in 1896. The genus Orchestomerus belongs to the superfamily Curculionoidea. Very little specific biological or ecological information is documented for this particular species.
