The Coscinaraeidae are a family of stony corals found in the Indo-Pacific region.
The World Register of Marine Species lists the following genera: [1]
Genus is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms as well as viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus.
Murex is a genus of medium to large sized predatory tropical sea snails. These are carnivorous marine gastropod molluscs in the family Muricidae, commonly called "murexes" or "rock snails".
Zoanthids are an order of cnidarians commonly found in coral reefs, the deep sea and many other marine environments around the world. These animals come in a variety of different colonizing formations and in numerous colors. They can be found as individual polyps, attached by a fleshy stolon or a mat that can be created from small pieces of sediment, sand and rock. The term "zoanthid" refers to all animals within this order Zoantharia, and should not be confused with "Zoanthus", which is one genus within Zoantharia.
Heterodonta is a taxonomic subclass of saltwater clams, marine bivalve molluscs. This subclass includes the edible clams, the cockles and the Venus clams.
Neritidae, common name the nerites, is a taxonomic family of small to medium-sized saltwater and freshwater snails which have a gill and a distinctive operculum.
The World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) is a taxonomic database that aims to provide an authoritative and comprehensive list of names of marine organisms.
Splendrillia is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Drilliidae.
Daphnella is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Raphitomidae.
Raphitoma is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Raphitomidae.
Miltromorpha is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Mitromorphidae, in the superfamily Conoidea the cone snails and their allies. This genus was originally described by Carpenter off the west coast of the United States. The species occur mainly on the continental shelf and in insular environments. Their real diversity is poorly understood.
Pusia is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Costellariidae.
Babelomurex is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Muricidae, the murex snails or rock snails.
Coralliophila is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Coralliophilinae, the coral snails, within the family Muricidae, the murex snails and rock snails.
Favartia is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Muricidae, the murex snails or rock snails. It is known for its crystalline shell.
Vokesimurex is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Muricidae, the murex snails or rock snails.
Fulgurofusus is a genus of sea snails in the family Columbariidae.
Horastrea is a monotypic genus of stony coral in the family Coscinaraeidae. It is represented by the single species Horastrea indica, the blister coral. It is native to the southwestern Indian Ocean where it is found in shallow water sandy reefs. It was first described by M Pichon in 1971. It is an uncommon coral and the International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed it as being a "vulnerable species".
After excluding groups not related, the informal group Sigmurethra has become the suborder Helicina, with the following infraorders and a collection of families with no superfamily：
Morum is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Moruminae of the family Harpidae.
Heteropsammia is a genus of apozooxanthellate corals that belong to the family Dendrophylliidae.
