Siebenrockiella is a small genus of black marsh turtles. It used to be monotypic but now has two species with the addition of the Philippine forest turtle. The genus was originally erected in 1869 by John Edward Gray under the name Bellia, commemorating Thomas Bell, but this name is a junior homonym of Bellia Milne-Edwards, 1848, a crustacean genus. The replacement name, Siebenrockiella, was published in 1929 by Wassili Adolfovitch Lindholm, and commemorates Friedrich Siebenrock.

The Myuchelys is a genus of turtles, the Australian saw-shelled turtles, in the family Chelidae and subfamily Chelodininae. They inhabit the headwaters and tributaries of rivers within their range and this led to the name Myuchelys, which is formed from the Aboriginal word myuna meaning clear water and the Greek chelys meaning turtle. They have a short neck and the intergular scute completely separates the gular scutes. They have no alveolar ridge separating them from the snapping turtles of the genus Elseya.

<i>Ramusculus</i>

Ramusculus is a monotypic genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Enidae. The sole species lives in the Crimean Peninsula. The only species belonging to Ramusculus is Bulimus subulata. Zebrina (Ramusculus) mienisi Gittenberger 1986 living in Erzurum Province was also assigned to Ramusculus, but was subsequently placed in a separate genus, Ayna Páll-Gergely, 2009.

Ayna is a monotypic genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial gastropod mollusks in the family Enidae. The sole species in the genus is Ayna mienisi. It was described as Zebrina (Ramusculus) mienisi. The genus Ramusculus however is a monotypic genus only distantly related to Ayna. The closest relative of Ayna is probably Clausilioides.
