• Edessinae

  Edessinae is a subfamily of shield bugs (Pentatomidae) comprising approximately 10 genera and over 200 species, primarily distributed in the Neotropical region. The subfamily is characterized by distinctive morphological features of the male and female genitalia, including modified pygophores, gonocoxites, and internal reproductive structures. Recent taxonomic revisions have elevated several former subgenera of Edessa (Hypoxys, Pygoda) to genus level and established new genera including Grammedessa, Plagaedessa, Paraedessa, Odara, and Apheledessa. Species identification relies heavily on genitalic morphology due to frequent convergence in external body form.

• Elaphidiini

  Elaphidiini is a tribe of longhorn beetles (family Cerambycidae) within the subfamily Cerambycinae. The tribe has historically been spelled "Elaphidionini" in some literature. It contains numerous genera distributed across the Americas, with particularly high diversity in the Neotropical region. Recent taxonomic work has described new species from Colombia, Mexico, and the Caribbean, including Sphaerion costae, Mephritus costae, Eurysthea nogueirai, and Eurysthea nakagomei. The genus Elaphidion occurs in the Puerto Rican Bank and Antigua, with known host plant associations and described larval biology for some species.

• Emertonella

  Emertonella is a genus of cobweb spiders in the family Theridiidae, subfamily Hadrotarsinae, first described by E. B. Bryant in 1945. The genus was re-delimited in 2024 based on male palpal morphology, transferring approximately 30 species from the genus Euryopis. It now contains species distributed across Africa, Asia, Europe, North and South America, and New Guinea.

• Empoa

  Empoa is a genus of leafhoppers in the family Cicadellidae, established by Fitch in 1851 and currently treated as a subgenus of Typhlocyba Germar, 1833. The genus was synonymized with Empoides Vilbaste, 1968, with nine new combinations resulting from this taxonomic revision. Empoa species are part of the Typhlocybinae subfamily, characterized by their small size and plant-feeding habits. The gillettei complex within Empoa comprises 14 Nearctic species that share identical male genitalia, requiring host association data and coloration patterns for species-level identification.

• Entomobrya

  slender springtails

  Entomobrya is a genus of slender springtails in the family Entomobryidae, containing at least 270 described species. Members are characterized by elongated bodies and are among the most commonly encountered springtails in many terrestrial habitats. The genus has been documented across diverse environments including continental Europe, the Canary Islands, and cave systems in southern Spain. Species identification relies heavily on colour pattern and dorsal macrochaetotaxy, though colouration varies broadly within species and fades in preservative.

• Epanusia

  Epanusia is a genus of encyrtid wasps established by Girault in 1913. It belongs to the subtribe Platencyrtina within the tribe Discodini. The genus is part of the large and diverse family Encyrtidae, which contains numerous parasitoid species associated with various insect hosts. A redescription of Epanusia xerophila from Canada has been published, but biological information remains limited.

• Eparces

  Eparces is a genus of ichneumonid wasps in the subfamily Ichneumoninae, first described by Förster in 1869. The Nearctic fauna was revised in 2023, resulting in the description of Eparces australis from the southeastern United States and new distributional records for Eparces quadriceps. The genus belongs to the large parasitoid wasp family Ichneumonidae, though specific biological details remain poorly documented.

• Epermenioidea

  Fringe-tufted Moths

  Epermenioidea is a superfamily of Lepidoptera containing the single family Epermeniidae, commonly known as fringe-tufted moths. The group comprises approximately 14 genera distributed across multiple continents including Australia, Africa, Europe, and Asia. The superfamily was previously classified within Yponomeutoidea or Copromorphoidea but is now recognized as distinct based on morphological features. Taxonomic revisions continue to clarify generic boundaries and species diversity.

• Estheria

  Estheria is a genus of tachinid flies in the family Tachinidae, established by Robineau-Desvoidy in 1830. The genus contains 18 recognized species distributed across the East Palearctic and Oriental regions, including western China, Nepal, Pakistan, Malaysia, and Vietnam. Four species were described as new to science in 2019: E. hirtinerva, E. prostata, E. tibetensis, and E. wangi. As members of Tachinidae, these flies are presumed to be parasitoids, though specific host associations for Estheria species remain undocumented in the available literature.

• Eucerceris rubripes

  Eucerceris rubripes is a species of weevil wasp in the family Crabronidae, tribe Cercerini. The genus Eucerceris was subject to extensive taxonomic revision by George R. Ferguson, who specialized in Cerceris and related genera. Like other cercerine wasps, females provision nests with weevils (Curculionidae) as food for their larvae. The species has been recorded visiting flowering saltcedar (Tamarix) for nectar in Colorado.

• Eucyrtopogon diversipilosis

  Eucyrtopogon diversipilosis is a species of robber fly (Asilidae) described by Curran in 1923. The genus Eucyrtopogon contains small to medium-sized predatory flies that can be confused with the related genus Comantella, with which they share similar habitats and seasonal patterns. Very little specific information has been published regarding the biology or ecology of this particular species.

• Eurycercus longirostris

  Eurycercus longirostris is a Holarctic cladoceran crustacean first described by Hann in 1982. A 2011 taxonomic revision synonymized E. vernalis with E. longirostris due to lack of morphological and genetic justification for their separation. The species has a broader distributional range than previously recognized and belongs to the subgenus Eurycercus (Eurycercus). As a member of the Eurycercidae family, it shares characteristics with other chydorid-like cladocerans including a rounded carapace and specialized feeding appendages.

• Exapion ulicis

  Gorse Seed Weevil

  Exapion ulicis is a small seed-feeding weevil specialized on gorse (Ulex europaeus). Adults are light gray with a prominent snout roughly half the body length. The species is native to western Europe and has been introduced to New Zealand, California, Hawaii, and other regions as a biological control agent targeting invasive gorse populations. Larval feeding destroys seeds within pods, reducing plant spread, while adult feeding on stems and spines causes minor damage.

• Exenterus amictorius

  Exenterus amictorius is an ichneumonid parasitoid wasp introduced to North America that attacks sawfly larvae (Hymenoptera: Diprionidae), particularly during the pre-spinning eonymph stage. The species exhibits adaptive host discrimination behavior that changes during the host's spinning period, lacks discrimination initially but rapidly acquires and maintains this ability. It shows strong positive density-dependent responses to host abundance and has established successfully on multiple diprionid hosts across North America. In multiparasitism situations with the native E. diprionis, E. amictorius consistently survives due to faster larval development.

• Flexamia huroni

  Huron River Leafhopper

  Flexamia huroni is a leafhopper species in the family Cicadellidae, described by Bess & Hamilton in 1999. It belongs to the genus Flexamia, a group of leafhoppers known for their specialized host plant associations with grasses. The species is named after the Huron River in Michigan, where it was first collected. Like other members of the genus, it likely exhibits strong ecological dependence on specific grass host plants.

• Genus-undetermined

  Genus-undetermined is a placeholder designation used when a specimen or taxon cannot be assigned to a known genus. This occurs when diagnostic morphological features are insufficient, when taxonomic relationships remain unresolved, or when material is too incomplete for reliable classification. Such specimens are common in ecological surveys, fossil collections, and preliminary biodiversity assessments. The designation signals that further examination—potentially including molecular analysis, dissection, or comparison with type specimens—is required for definitive placement.

• Gonipterus

  Eucalyptus Weevils, Eucalyptus Snout Beetles, Eucalyptus Snout Weevils

  Gonipterus is a genus of weevils in the family Curculionidae, comprising approximately 20 described species native primarily to Australia. These insects are obligate plant feeders, with many species exhibiting high host specificity. Several species, notably Gonipterus platensis, G. pulverulentus, and G. gibberus, have become significant pests of Eucalyptus plantations globally, having spread to regions where these trees have been introduced. Taxonomic confusion has historically plagued the genus, with DNA studies in 2012 clarifying that populations previously identified as G. scutellatus in New Zealand, North America, western Europe, Africa, and eastern Europe actually represent distinct species. The genus has substantial economic importance in forestry, driving research into biological control agents such as the egg parasitoid Anaphes nitens.

• Helops arizonensis

  Helops arizonensis is a darkling beetle (family Tenebrionidae) described by George Henry Horn in 1874. The species epithet reflects its association with Arizona. As a member of the genus Helops, it belongs to a group of darkling beetles that can be distinguished from superficially similar ground beetles (Carabidae) by concealed mandibles and bead-like antennae, though some Helops species exhibit ground beetle-like antennae. The genus Helops is noted for species with elongated antennae segments that approach the filiform appearance of carabids, making identification more challenging than with typical darkling beetles.

• 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.

• Lithacodia undescribed

  Lithacodia undescribed refers to a species within the genus Lithacodia (family Noctuidae, subfamily Eustrotiinae) that has not yet been formally described and named in the scientific literature. The genus Lithacodia comprises small moths commonly known as bird-dropping moths due to their cryptic coloration. Undescribed species in this genus are known from various regions, particularly in North America and other parts of the world, where they await taxonomic study and formal description. These moths are typically nocturnal and exhibit the characteristic wing patterns and body morphology of the genus.

• Lucidotini

  fireflies, lightning bugs

  Lucidotini is the largest tribe of fireflies (Lampyridae), comprising approximately 34 genera and 849 species—nearly one-third of all described firefly species worldwide. The tribe is taxonomically challenging due to overlapping diagnostic features across taxonomic levels and historical reliance on homoplastic morphological characters. Recent phylogenetic studies incorporating terminalia and genital traits have substantially improved genus-level delimitations within the group.

• Mallos

  Mexican Social Spiders

  Mallos is a genus of cribellate araneomorph spiders in the family Dictynidae, first described by O. Pickard-Cambridge in 1902. The genus is notable for including social spider species, particularly *Mallos gregalis*, which lives in groups and communicates through web vibrations. These spiders produce cribellate silk, a type of woolly, non-sticky silk used in prey capture. The genus has been the subject of systematic research, including studies on their spinning apparatus evolution.

• Mannophorus forreri

  Mannophorus forreri is a longhorn beetle in the family Cerambycidae, described by Henry Walter Bates in 1885. It belongs to the tribe Trachyderini, a group known for often brightly colored and patterned species. The species is rarely encountered in collections and appears to have a restricted distribution in the southwestern United States and Mexico.
