Creaserinus danielae, the speckled burrowing crayfish, is a species of crayfish in the family Cambaridae. It is found in Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, and Florida.
Creaserinus gilpini, the Jefferson County crayfish, is a species of crayfish in the family Cambaridae. It is endemic to Arkansas.
Creaserinus gordoni, the Camp Shelby burrowing crayfish, is a species of crayfish in the family Cambaridae. It is endemic to Camp Shelby in Mississippi.
Fallicambarus harpi, the Ouachita burrowing crayfish, is a species of crayfish in the family Cambaridae. It is known only in southwest Arkansas. The species is a primary burrower, located in low lying seepage areas in pastures, yards and lawns.
Procambarus is a genus of crayfish in the family Cambaridae, all native to North and Central America. It includes a number of troglobitic species, and the marbled crayfish (marmorkrebs), which is parthenogenetic. Originally described as a subgenus for four species, it now contains around 161 species.
Fallicambarus is a genus of crayfish in the family Cambaridae from the United States and Canada. It includes 12 species, of which one is on the IUCN Red List as a vulnerable species (VU) and one as an endangered species (EN). The species of this genus are all restricted to three states or fewer, from Texas and Oklahoma east to Florida.
Lacunicambarus acanthura, the thornytail crayfish, is a species of crayfish in the family Cambaridae. It is found in the southeastern United States.
Faxonius is a genus of freshwater crayfish in the family Cambaridae. There are more than 90 described species in Faxonius. It includes the rusty crayfish, an invasive species in North America, and three species, F. virilis, F. immunis, and F. limosus, that are invasive to Europe.
Lacunicambarus is a genus of burrowing crayfishes in the family Cambaridae. There are currently 12 described species in Lacunicambarus, all of which are found east of the Continental Divide in North America. The genus was first recognized in 2018 when it was discovered through genetic analyses that the Cambarus subgenera Lacunicambarus and Tubericambarus were not monophyletic on their own, but that when combined they formed a single monophyletic group distinct from Cambarus. A 2022 study used anchored hybrid enrichment to resolve the Lacunicambarus phylogeny, which elucidated interspecific relationships and highlighted remaining undescribed diversity within the genus.
Samastacus is a genus of southern crayfish in the family Parastacidae. It has a single species, Samastacus spinifrons.
