Mysidae is the largest family of crustaceans in the order Mysida, with over 1000 species in around 170 genera.
Cambaroides is a genus of freshwater crayfish from eastern Asia. Together with Astacus, they are the only crayfish native to Asia. Cambaroides contains about six species:
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.
Calliopiidae is a family of amphipods, containing the following genera:
Pardaliscidae is a family of amphipods, whose members typically inhabit the deepest parts of ocean basins. It contains the following genera:
The Hyperiidea are a suborder of amphipods, small aquatic crustaceans. Unlike the other suborders of Amphipoda, hyperiids are exclusively marine and do not occur in fresh water. Hyperiids are distinguished by their large eyes and planktonic habitat. Most species of hyperiids are parasites or predators of salps and jellyfish in the plankton, although Themisto gaudichaudii and a few relatives are free-swimming predators of copepods and other small planktonic animals.
Eusiridae is a family of amphipods. It contains the following genera:
AlgaeBase is a global species database of information on all groups of algae, both marine and freshwater, as well as sea-grass.
Triviidae is a taxonomic family of small sea snails, marine gastropod molluscs in the superfamily Cypraeoidea of the order Littorinimorpha.
Lottiidae is a family of sea snails, specifically true limpets, marine gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Lottioidea and the clade Patellogastropoda.
Paralomis is a genus of king crabs. It includes the following species:
Stegocephalidae is a little-studied family of amphipods belonging to the suborder Gammaridea.
Corophiidira is a parvorder of marine amphipod crustaceans in the infraorder Corophiida. In a previous classification, this taxon was treated as an infraorder and was then itself called Corophiida.
Artotrogidae is a family of copepods in the order Siphonostomatoida.
Hyperia is a genus of amphipods in the family Hyperiidae. It contains the following species:
Asterocheres lilljeborgi is a species of copepod in the family Asterocheridae. It is found in the British Isles and Scandinavia where it is a semi-parasite of starfish. First described as Asterocheres lilljeborgi in 1859 by the Norwegian marine biologist Jonas Axel Boeck, it is the type species of the genus.
Cressa is a genus of amphipod crustaceans in the family Creesidae, with species living in depths from 31 to 820 meters.
Polyarthra is an order of copepods belonging to the class Copepoda.
Trischizostoma is a genus of crustaceans belonging to the monotypic family Trischizostomatidae.
Neobirsteiniamysis is a mysid crustacean genus of the subfamily Boreomysinae of the family Mysidae. Some of the largest mysids. Exclusively deep water. Cosmopolitan. 2 species.
