Anthepiscopus is a genus of flies belonging to the family Empididae. [1]
The species of this genus are found in Europe and Northern America. [1]
Species: [1]
The cutlassfishes are about 45 species of predatory fish in the family Trichiuridae found in seas throughout the world. Fish of this family are long, slender, and generally steely blue or silver in colour, giving rise to their name. They have reduced or absent pelvic and caudal fins, giving them an eel-like appearance, and large fang-like teeth.
Attevidae is a family of moths of the Yponomeutoidea superfamily, containing only one genus, Atteva. The group has a pantropical distribution, but at least one species has a range that extends into the temperate zone. No consistent hypotheses regarding the relationships, placement, and ranking of Attevidae have been published, but the prevalent view is that they likely form a monophyletic group within the Yponomeutoidea.
Argyra is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. The name "Argyra" comes from the Greek word for "silver".
The Cimicomorpha are an infraorder of insects in the order Hemiptera, the true bugs. The rostrum and other morphology of all members apparently is adapted to feeding on animals as their prey or hosts. Members include bed bugs, bat bugs, assassin bugs, and pirate bugs.
The Scathophagidae are a small family of Muscoidea which are often known as dung flies, although this name is not appropriate except for a few species of the genus Scathophaga which do indeed pass their larval stages in animal dung. The name probably derives from the yellow dung fly, which is one of the most abundant and ubiquitous flies in many parts of the Northern Hemisphere.
Pandion is a genus of birds of prey, known as ospreys, the only genus of family Pandionidae. Most taxonomic treatments have regarded this genus as describing a single extant species, separated to subspecies or races, while some treatments recognize two extant species.
Cheilosia is a genus of hoverfly. Most Cheilosia are black or largely un-coloured, lacking the bright colours and patterns of many hoverfly species. It is one of the most species diverse genera of hoverflies. The biology of many species is little understood, but where known, the larvae of Cheilosia species feed in the stems of plants or in fungi.
Homoneura is a genus of small flies of the family Lauxaniidae.
Carpomya is a genus of tephritid or fruit flies in the family Tephritidae.
Condylostylus is a genus of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. It is the second largest genus in the subfamily Sciapodinae, with more 250 species included. It has a high diversity in the Neotropical realm, where 70% of the species occur.
Satronia is a New World genus of tortrix moths belonging to the subfamily Olethreutinae and tribe Grapholitini. The genus was erected in 1926 by Carl Heinrich and was previously considered monotypic. Its type species is Satronia tantilla.
Cochylis is a genus of moths belonging to the subfamily Tortricinae of the family Tortricidae.
Phalonidia is a genus of moths belonging to the subfamily Tortricinae of the family Tortricidae.
Saphenista is a genus of moths belonging to the family Tortricidae.
Timia is a genus of flies in the family Ulidiidae, which is difficult to separate from the genus Ulidia.
The Chrysauginae are a subfamily of snout moths. They are primarily Neotropical and include about 400 described species.
Sepsis is a genus of flies in the family Sepsidae.
Benthodesmus is a genus of fish in the family Trichiuridae. There are at least eleven species in this genus, which are known as frostfish. These are not to be confused with Microgadus tomcod and Lepidopus caudatus also known as frostfish.
Hydrophorinae is a subfamily of flies in the family Dolichopodidae. According to Germann et al. (2011), the subfamily is polyphyletic.
Aphoebantus is a genus of bee flies. There are at least 80 described species in Aphoebantus.
