• Anurida

  Anurida is a genus of springtails (Collembola) in the family Neanuridae, established in 1865 by Laboulbène. The genus has cosmopolitan distribution with species occupying diverse habitats including intertidal marine zones, river floodplains, riparian areas, and forest ecosystems. Well-studied species include the intertidal specialist Anurida maritima, which exhibits complex tidal-entrained behaviors, and the terrestrial A. granaria, which has documented mycophagous associations. The genus shows notable morphological diversity in chaetotaxy and eye reduction, with some species groups exhibiting cryptic genetic divergence despite morphological similarity.

• Araneae

  spiders

  Araneae is an order of air-breathing arachnids comprising over 51,000 described species across 136 families, ranking seventh in total species diversity among all organismal orders. Members are characterized by two body regions (cephalothorax and unsegmented abdomen), eight legs, cheliceral fangs with venom glands, and abdominal spinnerets that produce silk. The order is divided into two suborders: Mesothelae (87 species, retaining abdominal segmentation) and Opisthothelae (over 39,000 species, without abdominal segmentation). Spiders occupy virtually all terrestrial habitats worldwide except Antarctica, functioning exclusively as predators of insects and other small arthropods.

• Araniella

  Cucumber Spiders, Sixspotted Orbweaver

  Araniella is a genus of small orb-weaver spiders in the family Araneidae, first described in 1942. The genus includes approximately 20 recognized species distributed across the Palearctic and Nearctic regions, with notable species including A. cucurbitina (cucumber green spider) and A. displicata (sixspotted orbweaver). Members are characterized by green coloration due to biliverdin pigments, small body size (4–8 mm), and distinctive abdominal spotting patterns. Several species have been described recently, including A. villanii (2020) named after mathematician Cédric Villani.

• Balclutha jafara

  Balclutha jafara is a leafhopper species native to Africa that was introduced to the Western Hemisphere by 2019. First detected in southern Florida in 2020 and in Colombian shipments entering the United States in 2019, it was previously known only from the Seychelles and Aldabra Islands. The species has since been documented across a broader African range including Kenya, South Africa, South Sudan, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Molecular analysis using COI barcodes confirmed its identity and revealed connections between populations on multiple continents.

• Bombus flavidus appalachiensis

  A subspecies of the cuckoo bumble bee Bombus flavidus endemic to eastern North America, ranging from the Appalachian Mountains to the eastern boreal regions of the United States and far southeastern Canada. Described in 2021 following integrative taxonomic analysis that revealed this population as genetically and morphologically distinct from western North American and Palearctic populations. As a social parasite, this subspecies does not construct colonies or collect pollen but invades nests of other bumble bee species.

• Ellescus

  Ellescus is a genus of true weevils in the family Curculionidae, tribe Ellescini. The genus contains approximately 16 described species globally. In North America, four valid species are recognized: the widespread and morphologically variable E. ephippiatus, the Holarctic E. bipunctatus, the west coast endemic E. californicus, and the temperate E. michaeli. Species identification relies on morphological examination and molecular markers, particularly ITS2, which has proven more reliable than CO1 for delineating closely related species.

• Ellescus bipunctatus

  Ellescus bipunctatus is a Holarctic weevil species in the tribe Ellescini. A recent taxonomic revision designated a neotype for this species and established E. borealis as its junior synonym. It is one of four valid Ellescus species in North America, where it occurs alongside the widespread E. ephippiatus, the west coast endemic E. californicus, and the newly described E. michaeli. The species has been distinguished from congeners using integrative taxonomy combining morphological and molecular data.

• Eremaeoidea

  Eremaeoidea is a superfamily of oribatid mites (Acari: Oribatida) established by Oudemans in 1900. Recent integrative taxonomic studies have revealed substantial cryptic diversity within this group, particularly in the genus Caleremaeus. What was long considered a single widespread species, C. monilipes, has been demonstrated to comprise at least five distinct species based on combined genetic, ecological, and morphological evidence. These mites are small, soil-dwelling microarthropods with varied habitat specializations ranging from strict deadwood association to alpine moss communities.

• Eryciini

  Eryciini is a tribe of tachinid flies comprising approximately 128 genera. The tribe serves as a repository for exoristine taxa that cannot be placed into other tribes, resulting in a polyphyletic assemblage. Members are parasitoids of Lepidoptera larvae, with documented associations to caterpillars in families Crambidae, Notodontidae, Noctuidae, Pyralidae, and Tortricidae. A new genus, Santarosamyia, was described in 2024 from Costa Rica based on specimens reared from wild-caught caterpillars.

• Eustala

  humpbacked orb-weavers

  Eustala is a genus of orb-weaver spiders in the family Araneidae, first described by Eugène Simon in 1895. As of November 2024, the genus contains 87 species distributed primarily across the Americas, from the United States through Central America to South America, with highest diversity in Brazil, Uruguay, and Argentina. Several species have been documented exhibiting specialized ecological relationships, including myrmecophily (living among ants) in Central American species that inhabit ant-defended acacia plants.

• Ixodes affinis

  Ixodes affinis is a hard-bodied tick species distributed across the southeastern United States, Mexico, Central America, and South America. Unlike its congener Ixodes scapularis, this species does not bite humans but serves as a competent vector for Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto, the causative agent of Lyme disease. Immature stages feed on birds and small mammals, while adults parasitize larger mammals including deer and dogs. Its expanding range into southeastern Virginia and association with migratory birds has raised concerns about its role in pathogen dispersal.

• Lacunicambarus diogenes

  devil crayfish, devil crawfish

  Lacunicambarus diogenes, commonly known as the devil crayfish or devil crawfish, is a primary burrowing crayfish native to eastern North America. This species constructs and inhabits burrows in wet, muddy terrestrial habitats rather than living in permanent surface water. Its burrowing activities create refugia used by numerous other species, including documented use by eastern cicada killer wasps (Sphecius speciosus) as brooding habitat. The species ranges across the Atlantic Coastal Plain and Piedmont ecoregion from New Jersey to Georgia, with disjunct populations in Louisiana.

• Lasioglossum petrellum

  sweat bee

  Lasioglossum petrellum is a species of sweat bee in the family Halictidae, originally described by Cockerell in 1903. It belongs to the subgenus Dialictus, one of the largest and most taxonomically challenging groups within the genus Lasioglossum. Recent integrative taxonomic research using DNA barcoding and morphology has revealed that L. petrellum represents a cryptic species complex, with four new species described from within its former range. The species is native to North America and Middle America.

• Naphrys

  North American Euophrys jumping spiders

  A genus of small jumping spiders in the family Salticidae, tribe Euophryini. First described by G.B. Edwards in 2003, the name is a portmanteau of 'North America' and 'Euophrys'. Species are compact-bodied, typically under 5 mm in length, with cryptic brown or gray coloration. Originally considered restricted to the Nearctic region, but subsequent research has demonstrated distribution extending into the Neotropical region. The genus currently includes seven described species, with four originally described from the United States, Canada, and Mexico, and three additional species described from Mexico in 2024.

• Novochares

  water scavenger beetles

  Novochares is a genus of water scavenger beetles (Hydrophilidae: Acidocerinae) erected in 2021 to accommodate New World species previously placed in Helochares. The genus contains 52 described species distributed across the entire Neotropical region from Mexico to Argentina, including Caribbean islands. Species circumscription relies heavily on male aedeagus morphology due to relatively homogeneous external characteristics. An integrative taxonomic approach combining adult morphology with COI and 28S DNA sequence data was used to delimit species boundaries.

• Ochlerotatus dorsalis

  Salt Marsh Mosquito

  Ochlerotatus dorsalis is a Holarctic mosquito species with a transcontinental distribution spanning the Palearctic and Nearctic regions. Genetic studies have identified two highly distinctive COI mtDNA phylogroups corresponding to these regions, suggesting Pleistocene vicariance of an ancestral range due to geographical barriers and climatic changes. The species is epidemiologically relevant as a potential pathogen vector.

• Pacifastacus leniusculus

  Signal Crayfish

  The signal crayfish is a large North American freshwater crayfish introduced to Europe in the 1960s to replace declining native fisheries. It has become one of the most ecologically impactful invasive decapods in Europe, outcompeting native crayfish and serving as a carrier of crayfish plague (Aphanomyces astaci). The species establishes self-sustaining populations rapidly, with six age cohorts documented within a few years of introduction. It shows sex- and size-specific coloration patterns, with males displaying more saturated and brighter ventral claw surfaces than females, suggesting a role in intraspecific communication.

• Perilampus hyalinus

  A Nearctic parasitoid wasp in the family Perilampidae, part of a species complex historically confused under this name for over 100 years. Recent integrative taxonomic revision (2024) clarified its status through neotype designation with COI sequence, establishing it as either a hyperparasitoid of dipteran parasitoids of Orthoptera or a parasitoid of dipteran kleptoparasites of Crabronidae and Sphecidae that provision nests with Orthoptera. Distinguished from eight newly described congeneric species through morphology, COI, ITS2, and host data.

• Pseudoloxops

  plant bugs

  Pseudoloxops is a genus of plant bugs (Miridae) established by Kirkaldy in 1905. Recent integrative taxonomic research in French Polynesia has dramatically expanded knowledge of the genus, describing 17 new species from this region alone and bringing the total of endemic French Polynesian species to 20—representing one-third of all known Pseudoloxops species worldwide. The genus exhibits unusual host plant associations, including rare fern specialization in some species.

• Pugettia

  kelp crabs

  Pugettia is a genus of marine kelp crabs in the family Epialtidae, distributed across the North Pacific from North America to East Asia. Species inhabit shallow subtidal zones, primarily associated with macroalgal habitats including kelp beds, Sargassum stands, and red algal turfs. Many species exhibit ontogenetic habitat shifts, with juveniles and smaller individuals occupying deeper algal turfs while larger adults migrate to shallower macroalgal beds. The genus includes approximately 25 extant species plus one fossil species, with several species serving as important subjects for studies of crab growth, reproduction, and habitat ecology.

• Spilomicrini

  Spilomicrini is a tribe of small parasitoid wasps within the family Diapriidae (Hymenoptera). Members are generally melanic (dark-colored), with body lengths ranging from 1.5–4.5 mm. The tribe includes at least 14 genera and exhibits high sexual dimorphism and intraspecific morphological variation, which complicates species identification. The genus Spilomicrus alone contains over 100 described species with worldwide distribution.

• Stegana

  vinegar flies

  Stegana is a genus of vinegar flies (Drosophilidae) comprising at least 140 described species. The genus is characterized by high morphological conservatism, particularly in the subgenus Orthostegana, where evolutionary stasis has produced numerous cryptic species that are difficult to distinguish by external morphology alone. Species delimitation often requires integrative approaches combining molecular data (mitochondrial COI and ND2 genes) with detailed morphological analysis.

• Stictocephala stimulea

  Stictocephala stimulea is a treehopper species in the family Membracidae, first described by Van Duzee in 1914. Treehoppers in this genus are characterized by their enlarged, often ornate pronotum that extends over the body like a helmet or thorn. The specific epithet 'stimulea' suggests possible resemblance to or association with stinging organisms, though this refers to appearance rather than actual sting. Like other membracids, this species likely feeds on plant phloem sap using piercing-sucking mouthparts.

• Synema

  Synema is a genus of crab spiders (Thomisidae) with a wide distribution across most parts of the world. The genus includes species with high morphological variability, as demonstrated by integrative studies combining molecular and morphological data. Some species, such as S. globosum, exhibit deep mitochondrial divergence without corresponding nuclear or morphological differentiation, complicating species delimitation. Members of this genus are typically found in leaf-dwelling habitats and exhibit ballooning behavior as juveniles, which contributes to their broad geographic range.

• Teloganopsis

  spiny crawler mayfly

  Teloganopsis is a genus of spiny crawler mayflies (Ephemeroptera: Ephemerellidae) comprising approximately 17 described species. The genus was established by Ulmer in 1939 and occurs primarily in the Oriental region. Recent taxonomic work in Thailand has used integrative approaches combining morphology and molecular data (COI and 28S rDNA) to distinguish species, with abdominal color patterns serving as consistent diagnostic characters across developmental stages. Species in this genus have been documented from Thailand and other parts of Asia, though many remain poorly known due to limited collection and study.

• Tetramesa

  Tetramesa is a genus of minute phytophagous wasps in the family Eurytomidae comprising over 200 described species. Members are exclusively associated with grasses (Poaceae), where they typically induce stem or inflorescence galls. The genus exhibits pronounced host specificity, with most species restricted to a single grass species or closely related congeners. Several species have been deployed as biological control agents against invasive grasses, including T. romana for giant reed (Arundo donax) and candidate agents for medusahead (Taeniatherum caput-medusae) and African lovegrass (Eragrostis curvula). Adults feed on nectar. Recent phylogenomic studies have synonymized the genera Aiolomorphus and Cathilaria within Tetramesa.

• 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.

• Themira lohmanus

  Lohman's ensign-fly

  A relatively large and robust sepsid fly described in 2017 from two urban parks in New York City. Originally collected in 2007 and misidentified as Themira biloba, it was recognized as a distinct species through morphological differences (asymmetrical male surstyli), 4.46% COI DNA divergence, and complete post-zygotic reproductive isolation. The species is notable as the first new Themira species described from the Nearctic in 90 years despite occurring in one of the world's most intensively studied urban areas.

• Torrenticola

  Torrenticola is a genus of water mites in the family Torrenticolidae, comprising over 400 described species globally and 90 species in North America alone. These mites are characteristic inhabitants of rocky and sandy streams, where they represent the dominant water mite genus. Recent taxonomic work has demonstrated that color markings, long overlooked by traditional acarology, serve as valuable diagnostic characters for species identification when combined with DNA sequencing and morphological analysis.

• Torrenticolidae

  torrent mites

  Torrenticolidae is a family of water mites (Acari: Hydrachnidia) in the order Trombidiformes. Members are tiny, heavily sclerotized, crawling arthropods found in running freshwater habitats. The family contains approximately 5 genera and more than 400 described species, with the genus Torrenticola being the most diverse and widespread. Species diversity is highest in tropical regions, though the family occurs on all continents except Antarctica.

• Tortopus

  Tortopus is a genus of burrowing mayflies in the family Polymitarcyidae, restricted to six species based on cladistic revision: T. igaranus, T. circumfluus, T. harrisi, T. zottai, T. bellus, and T. arenales. The genus is characterized by distinctive morphological synapomorphies including female parastyli receptors with long anterior furrows, entirely flattened penes, and nymphs bearing two subapical tubercles on mandibular tusks. Nymphs construct U-shaped tunnels in clay banks, a behavior that renders them difficult to sample with standard aquatic survey methods.

• Tranes

  Tranes is a genus of true weevils in the family Curculionidae, subfamily Molytinae, established by Schoenherr in 1843. Species in this genus are strongly associated with cycads, particularly the genera Bowenia, Lepidozamia, and Macrozamia. A 2024 integrative taxonomic revision expanded the genus from four to ten species, describing six new species and redescribing previously named taxa. The genus is part of the broader Tranes group of cycad- and grasstree-associated weevils found in Australia.

• Trichosirocalus

  rosette weevils, crown weevils

  A genus of small true weevils native to the Palearctic region. Several species have been widely introduced to North America, Australia, and New Zealand as biological control agents for invasive thistles. The genus was historically treated as containing a single species, T. horridus, but integrative taxonomic studies using molecular and morphological data have revealed multiple distinct species with different host associations.
