Cimbex is a genus of sawflies in the family Cimbicidae.
This genus is known in the fossil record from the Eocene to the Miocene (from about 37.2 to recent). Fossils of species within this genus have been found in United States, Japan, and China. [2]
Physeter is a genus of toothed whales. There is only one living species in this genus: the sperm whale. Some extremely poorly known fossil species have also been assigned to the same genus including Physeter antiquus from the Pliocene of France, and Physeter vetus from the Quaternary of the U.S. state of Georgia. Physeter vetus is very likely an invalid species, as the few teeth that were used to identify this species appear to be identical to those of another toothed whale, Orycterocetus quadratidens. The name is from Greek φυσητήρ (physētēr) 'blowpipe, blowhole .'
Acipenser is a genus of sturgeons. With 17 living species, it is the largest genus in the order Acipenseriformes. The genus is paraphyletic, containing all sturgeons that do not belong to Huso, Scaphirhynchus, or Pseudoscaphirhynchus, with many species more closely related to the other three genera than they are to other species of Acipenser. They are native to freshwater and estuarine systems of Eurasia and North America, and most species are threatened. Several species also known to enter near-shore marine environments in the Atlantic, Arctic and Pacific oceans.
The Orussidae or the parasitic wood wasps represent a small family of sawflies ("Symphyta"). Currently, about 93 extant and four fossil species are known. They take a key position in phylogenetic analyses of Hymenoptera, because they form the sister taxon of the megadiverse apocritan wasps, and the common ancestor of Orussidae + Apocrita evolved parasitism for the first time in course of the evolution of the Hymenoptera. They are also the only sawflies with carnivorous larvae.
Cimbicidae, the Clubhorn Sawfly, is a family of sawflies in the order Hymenoptera. There are more than 20 genera and 200 described species in Cimbicidae. Larvae are solitary herbivores.
Cerastoderma is a genus of marine bivalves in the family Cardiidae. It includes the common cockle Cerastoderma edule.
Aequipecten is a genus of scallops, marine bivalve mollusks in the family Pectinidae.
Acantholyda is a genus of sawflies.
Bolinus is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Muricidae, the murex snails or rock snails.
Trachycardium is a genus of molluscs in the family Cardiidae.
Arge is a genus of sawflies belonging to the family Argidae subfamily Arginae.
Pamphilius is a genus of leaf-rolling sawflies within the Symphyta belonging to the family Pamphiliidae.
Cimbex femoratus, the birch sawfly, is a species of sawfly in the family Cimbicidae.
Schizaster is a genus of heart urchins belonging to the family Schizasteridae. The type species of the genus is Schizaster studeri.
Amusium is a genus of scallops, marine bivalve molluscs belonging to the family Pectinidae.
Xeris is a genus of horntails found in North America and Eurasia. Achille Costa circumscribed the genus in 1894.
Eriocampa is a genus of common sawflies in the family Tenthredinidae. There are about ten described species in Eriocampa.
Phylloecus is a genus of sawflies belonging to the family Cephidae.
Cimbex connatus, also known by its common name large alder sawfly is a species from the genus Cimbex. The species was originally described by Franz von Paula Schrank in 1776.
Megaxyela is a genus of sawflies in the family Xyelidae. There are about 13 described species in Megaxyela, found in the eastern Nearctic and in the southeastern part of East Asia. Two fossil species have been discovered, in Colorado and Shandong, China.
Opheltes glaucopterus is a Ichneumonidae wasp that parasitizes pupae from the sawfly genus Cimbex. It has a Holarctic distribution.
