Arctocorisa germari is a species of water boatman in the family Corixidae in the order Hemiptera. [1]
Corixidae is a family of aquatic insects in the order Hemiptera. They are found worldwide in virtually any freshwater habitat and a few species live in saline water. There are about 500 known species worldwide, in 55 genera, including the genus Sigara.
Nepomorpha is an infraorder of insects in the "true bug" order (Hemiptera). They belong to the "typical" bugs of the suborder Heteroptera. Due to their aquatic habits, these animals are known as true water bugs. They occur all over the world outside the polar regions, with about 2,000 species altogether. The Nepomorpha can be distinguished from related Heteroptera by their missing or vestigial ocelli. Also, as referred to by the obsolete name Cryptocerata, their antennae are reduced, with weak muscles, and usually carried tucked against the head.
Arctocorisa carinata is a species of water boatman in the family Corixidae in the order Hemiptera.
Corixa affinis is a species of water boatman in the family Corixidae in the order Hemiptera.

Sigara venusta is a species of water boatman in the family Corixidae in the order Hemiptera.
Sigara dorsalis is a species of water boatman in the family Corixidae in the order Hemiptera.
Sigara distincta is a species of water boatman in the family Corixidae in the order Hemiptera.
Sigara fallenoidea is a species of water boatman in the family Corixidae in the order Hemiptera. It was described by Hungerford and the type locality is in Canada. In Ireland Walton discovered a 'new' species of corixidae which he named Sigara pearcei. This was synonymised by Hungerford in 1950. The distribution of S. fallenoidea is therefore an extraordinary one including Canada, Ireland, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Ukraine and Russia. In Ireland, Sigara fallenoidea is found in all the large lakes on the island. There are confirmed records from Loughs Neagh, Beg and Portmore Lough; Upper and Lower Lough Erne; Lough Melvin; Loughs Ree, Derg and Key on the Shannon; and Lough Corrib.
Sigara fossarum is a species of water boatman in the family Corixidae in the order Hemiptera.
Sigara scotti is a species of water boatman in the family Corixidae in the order Hemiptera.
Sigara lateralis is a species of water boatman in the family Corixidae in the order Hemiptera.

Yuri Alexandrovich Popov was a Soviet and Russian paleoentomologist, an authority on the taxonomy and evolution of fossil true bugs (Heteroptera) and Coleorrhyncha. He described more than 20 new families and subfamilies and 300 new genera and species from the Mesozoic and Cenozoic. He also was one of the founders of the modern higher classification of true bugs: three of seven heteropteran infraorders have been established by him. He was the author of more than 170 publications, including a classic monograph on the evolution of water bugs.
