• Allonemobius

  Robust Ground Crickets

  Allonemobius is a genus of North American ground crickets in the family Trigonidiidae (subfamily Nemobiinae). The genus comprises at least 11 described species, including Allonemobius socius, A. fasciatus, and A. allardi. Members are notable for their sophisticated diapause strategies, with some species exhibiting embryonic diapause that allows survival across unfavorable seasons. Research on multiple species has revealed complex life history adaptations including bet-hedging strategies, altitudinal variation in voltinism, and physiological trade-offs between reproduction and immunity.

• Aulogymnus

  Aulogymnus is a genus of chalcidoid wasps in the family Eulophidae, first described by Förster in 1851. Members of this genus are small parasitoid wasps, part of a diverse family that primarily parasitizes other insects. The genus has been recorded from Europe and Asia. Specific biological details for the genus as a whole remain poorly documented in accessible literature.

• 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.

• Daphnia galeata

  water flea

  Daphnia galeata is a small planktonic crustacean inhabiting freshwater lakes across the Northern Hemisphere. The species exhibits pronounced phenotypic plasticity in response to environmental conditions, particularly food availability and predation risk. Two subspecies are recognized: D. g. galeata in the Old World and D. g. mendotae in North America, with hybrid populations occurring in the lower Great Lakes. It serves as a key model organism for studying predator-induced defenses and life-history evolution in aquatic systems.

• 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.

• Prodoxus

  Bogus Yucca Moths

  Prodoxus is a genus of moths in the family Prodoxidae comprising approximately 22 species, commonly known as bogus yucca moths. Unlike their pollinating relatives in the genus Tegeticula, Prodoxus species are non-pollinating yucca moths that exploit yucca plants as hosts without providing mutualistic services. The genus exhibits diverse feeding specializations, with larvae feeding on yucca flowering stalks, fruits, or leaves depending on the species. Host-associated divergence and incipient speciation have been documented, with specialization closely tied to host plant shifts.

• Protopiophila

  cheese skipper, antler fly

  Protopiophila is a genus of piophilid flies commonly known as cheese skippers or antler flies. The genus comprises eleven described species distributed across multiple continents. Some species, particularly P. litigata, have become model organisms for studying sexual selection and life history evolution due to their specialized breeding ecology on discarded cervid antlers. Other species such as P. latipes utilize decomposing animal carcasses as breeding substrates. The genus exhibits notable behavioral diversity in mating systems and larval ecology.

• Rothschildia lebeau

  Lebeau's Silk Moth, Forbes Moth

  Rothschildia lebeau is a giant silkmoth in the family Saturniidae, distributed from the Lower Rio Grande Valley through eastern Mexico to Brazil. Adults are short-lived and do not feed, relying on fat reserves accumulated during larval development. The species exhibits a life history tradeoff between larval survival and adult body size based on host plant quality, with larger males showing higher mating success.
