The genus was first described by Gistel in 1856. [1]
The species of this genus are found in Europe, Japan and Northern America. [1]
Species:
Clethrionomys is a genus of small, slender voles. In recent years the genus name was changed to Myodes, however a 2019 paper found that Myodes was actually a junior synonym for Lemmus, thus making it unusable. As such, Clethrionomys is re-established as the proper genus name. At the same time, several species were moved to the genus Craseomys, so members of both genera are referred to as red-backed voles. This genus was described by Johannes von Nepomuk Franz Xaver Gistel under the pseudonym "G. Tilesius". Some authors cite the taxonomic authority as "Gistel, 1850", whereas others still use "Tilesius, 1850".
Graphium is a genus of mostly tropical swallowtail butterflies commonly known as swordtails, kite swallowtails, or ladies. Native to Eurasia, Africa, and Oceania, the genus is represented by over 100 species. Their colouration is as variable as the habitats they frequent; from rainforest to savannah. Some possess tails which may be long and swordlike, while others lack any hindwing extensions. Graphium species are often sighted at mud puddles.
Philautus is a genus of shrub frogs in the family Rhacophoridae from Asia. Some species in this genus are now considered extinct by IUCN, while others are widespread and abundant. The taxonomy of the group is unclear, with many poorly described species.
Bembix is a large cosmopolitan genus of large, often brightly colored predatory sand wasps, consisting of about 380 species.
Pseudophilautus leucorhinus, also known as white-nosed shrub frog, pointed-nosed shrub frog, whitenose bubble-nest frog, and Marten's bush frog, was a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It was endemic to Sri Lanka. It is only known from the holotype that was collected some time before 1856 from the indefinite type locality "Ceylon". Pseudophilautus wynaadensis from southwestern India has been considered conspecific with this species, but these species are now considered distinct.
Spondylidinae are a small subfamily of Cerambycidae including slightly over 100 species, primarily in the coniferous forests of the Boreal hemisphere. A few species occur in coniferous forests in tropical and subtropical areas, while very few genera are present in Austral Africa and Madagascar.
The genus Mantis is in the family Mantidae, of the mantis order Mantodea.
Xantholinus is a genus of the beetle family Staphylinidae, the rove beetles. They can be found throughout the world. Most are native to the Palearctic realm, and some have been introduced to North America.
Pissodini is a tribe of weevils described by Johannes von Nepomuk Franz Xaver Gistel in 1856.
Johannes von Nepomuk Franz Xaver Gistel [Gistl] was a German naturalist. He worked at the Museum of Natural History in Regensburg, and wrote on a range of topics under the pseudonyms Garduus and G. Tilesius. His contributions to entomology include descriptions of species, with many new names he proposed now mostly relegated to synonymy.
Glaucus is a genus of small blue pelagic sea slugs. They are aeolid nudibranchs, ranging in size from 20 to 40 mm. They feed on colonial cnidarians such as Portuguese man o' wars, blue buttons, and purple sails. They can produce painful and potentially dangerous stings when handled, as they store the venomous nematocysts of their prey. Glaucus is the only genus in the family Glaucidae. It includes five species.
Conognatha is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, tribe Stigmoderini, containing the following species: They are found in the Neotropical realm.
Hypothalassia is a genus of temperate and tropical deep sea crabs that are found in both Australian and Japanese waters. It comprises two species: Hypothalassia acerba Koh & Ng, 2000, and Hypothalassia armata, both known as the champagne crab.
Cantharinae is a subfamily of beetles in the family Cantharidae. There are at least 200 described species in Cantharinae.
Omalium is a genus of ocellate rove beetles in the family Staphylinidae. There are at least 70 described species in Omalium.
Furo is an extinct genus of ray-finned fish belonging to the order Ioniscopiformes that has been found in Europe. The type species is F. orthostomus.
Eupetale is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It contains two species known from South America.
Anthophagus alpinus is a species of rove beetle in the family Staphylinidae, There are more than 30 described species in Anthophagus, found in the Palearctic and North America.
Brachonyx is a genus of beetles belonging to the family Curculionidae.
Ascalaphus is a genus of owlfly belonging to the tribe Ascalaphini. The species of this genus are found in Africa and Asia.
