Pinnotheridae is a family of tiny soft-bodied crabs that live commensally in the mantles of certain bivalve molluscs and the occasional large gastropod mollusc species in genera such as Strombus and Haliotis. Tunicotheres moseri is commensal with a tunicate. The earliest fossils attributable to the Pinnotheridae date from the Danian.
Carcharias is a genus of mackerel sharks belonging to the family Odontaspididae. Once bearing many prehistoric species, all have gone extinct with the exception of the critically endangered sand tiger shark.
Eurysquillidae is a family of mantis shrimp. Formerly placed in the superfamily Gonodactyloidea, it has since been recognised that eurysquillids are closer to families in the Squilloidea, and so Eurysquillidae has been placed in its own superfamily, Eurysquilloidea. The family was first described in 1977 by Raymond Manning.
The open brain coral is a brightly colored free-living coral species in the family Merulinidae. It is the only species in the monotypic genus Trachyphyllia and can be found throughout the Indo-Pacific.
Sakalia is a genus of crabs in the family Aethridae, and was first described in 1981 by Raymond Manning and Lipke Holthuis.
Alainodaeus is a genus of crabs in the family Xanthidae, containing the following species:

Trachysalambria is a genus of prawns. It was erected in 1934 by Martin Burkenroad, as a subgenus of Trachypenaeus, with T. curvirostris as its type species. That subgenus was elevated to the rank of genus in 1997 by Isabel Pérez Farfante and Brian Kensley. It contains the following species:
Rochinia is a genus of crab in the family Epialtidae, containing the following species:
Heikeopsis is a genus of crabs containing two species, Heikeopsis japonica and Heikeopsis arachnoides. The genus was originally described under the name "Heikea" by Lipke Holthuis and Raymond B. Manning in 1990, but was later determined to be a junior homonym of the gastropod genus Heikea, erected by Orvar Isberg in 1934.
Gonodactylellus is a genus of mantis shrimp. The genus was first described by Raymond Manning in 1995.
Chaceon crosnieri is a species of crab.
Austruca annulipes is a species of fiddler crab found along the coastline from South Africa to Somalia, Madagascar, India, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines.

Paromola is a genus of crabs within the family Homolidae. Members of the Homolidae genus have their fifth pereiopods in a sub-dorsal position, which allows them to hold objects, such as sponges, black corals and gorgonians, over the rear half of the carapace, in a possible defence mechanism against predators.
Erugosquilla is a genus of crustaceans belonging to the family Squillidae. The genus was first described in 1995 by Raymond Brendan Manning. The type species is Erugosquilla massavensis(Kossmann, 1880).
