Gammaridea is one of the suborders of the order Amphipoda, comprising small, shrimp-like crustaceans. Until recently, in a traditional classification, it encompassed about 7,275 (92%) of the 7,900 species of amphipods described by then, in approximately 1,000 genera, divided among around 125 families. That concept of Gammaridea included almost all freshwater amphipods, while most of the members still were marine.
Lysianassidae is a family of marine amphipods, containing the following genera:
Phryganoporus is a genus of Australian intertidal spiders that was first described by Eugène Simon in 1908. Its five species only occur in Australia and Tasmania, with one species also occurring on Norfolk Island, south of New Caledonia. The name is derived from Greek phryganon and poros ("hole"), referring to the web that is often built on dry shrubs or low vegetation with a hole as an entrance.
Amaryllididae is a family of marine benthic amphipods found throughout the southern hemisphere. These smooth, laterally compressed amphipods can be distinguished by the accessory setal row of the mandible having a distal tuft. It was first described in 2002 by James K. Lowry and Helen E. Stoddart. It contains the following genera:
Psaltoda is a genus of cicada found in eastern Australia. Originally described by Carl Stål, the type species is Psaltoda moerens known as the redeye, and P. plaga is a well-known species from eastern Australia, known as the black prince. Fifteen species are recognised. Relationships of the species with each other remains unclear.
Psaltoda mossi is a species of cicada native to the vicinity of Cairns in northeastern Australia.
Arcitalitrus is a genus of beach hoppers in the family Talitridae. There are nine described species in Arcitalitrus.
Amaryllis is a genus of amphipods belonging to the family Amaryllididae. The genus was first described in 1879 by William Aitcheson Haswell, and the type species is Amaryllis macrophthalma Haswell, 1879.
Parawaldeckia is a genus of amphipod crustacean in the family, Lysianassidae. and was first described by Thomas Roscoe Rede Stebbing in 1910. The type species is Parawaldeckia thomsoni.
Bellorchestia marmorata is a marine amphipod in the Talitridae family.
James Kenneth Lowry was a zoologist specialising in amphipods.
Elasmopus arafura is a marine species of amphipod in the family, Maeridae, and was first described in 2011 by Lauren E. Hughes and James K. Lowry.
Amaryllis carrascoi is a species of crustacean in the family Amaryllididae, and was first described in 2002 by James K. Lowry and Helen E. Stoddart.
Amaryllis croca is a species of crustacean in the family Amaryllididae, and was first described in 2002 by James K. Lowry and Helen E. Stoddart.
Bathyamaryllis is a genus of amphipods belonging to the family Amaryllididae. The genus was first described in 1933 by Jean M. Pirlot, and the type species is Bathyamaryllis perezii Pirlot, 1933.
Bathyamaryllis kapala is a species of amphipod in the family Amaryllididae, and was first described in 2002 by James K. Lowry and Helen E. Stoddart.
Natatolana femina is a species of crustacean in the family Cirolanidae, and was first described by Stephen John Keable in 2006. The species epithet, femina, refers to the fact that no mature males were examined, only females.
Natatolana helenae is a species of crustacean in the family Cirolanidae, and was first described by Stephen John Keable in 2006. The species epithet, helenae, honours Helen Stoddart.
Natatolana lilliput is a species of crustacean in the family Cirolanidae, and was first described by Stephen John Keable in 2006. The species epithet, lilliput, is from the Lilliput of Gulliver's Travels, and refers to the specie's short antennae.
Natatolana rusteni is a species of crustacean in the family Cirolanidae, and was first described by Stephen John Keable in 2006. The species epithet, rusteni, honours Mr Jim Rusten, a former storeman at the Australian Museum.
