Rhinella gnustae is a species of toad in the family Bufonidae that is endemic to Argentina. Its natural habitat is rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Gelae is a genus of round fungus beetles belonging to the family Leiodidae. The beetles are found in different parts of Central and North America. They are small and rounded, feeding on slime moulds. They were originally placed in the genus Agathidium following the discovery of the first species, G. cognatum, in 1878. The taxonomic position was revised with description of new species in 2004 by American entomologists Kelly B. Miller and Quentin D. Wheeler. Upon creation of the new genus, the five new species are Gelae baen, G. belae, G. donut, G. fish, and G. rol.

Nothobroscina Roig-Juñent 2000 is one of five subtribes within the ground beetle tribe Broscini. The subtribe consists of ten genera from the Gondwanan countries: Australia, New Caledonia, New Zealand and southern South America. All of these genera are endemic to their respective country, i.e., none of the genera are shared across any of the Gondwanan countries.
Gelae donut is a species of beetle in the family Leiodidae. It is found in South America. Adults are 3.03–3.46 mm (0.119–0.136 in) long, and brown and yellow in color. It likely feeds on slime molds and fungi. Like other species in the genus Gelae, it has received media attention due to its scientific name, which is a play on jelly donut.
Agathidium akallebregma is a species of round fungus beetle in the family Leiodidae. It is found in North America. It is named from the Greek words akalles, meaning ‘‘ugly’’, and bregma, meaning ‘‘face’’, for the unusually shaped anterior portion of the head in this species. It has a mandibular horn, moderately elongate body shape, and strongly concave posterior portion of the mesosternum.

This species is similar to other A. dentigerum subgroup members that have a large, acute, falcate male metafemoral tooth, very narrow metasternum with the oblique metasternal carinae relatively prominent and meeting medially in a large, posteriorly directed triangular lobe, large male metasternal fovea, and reduced eyes.
