Haplochernes is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the Chernetidae family. It was described in 1932 by Austrian arachnologist Max Beier. [1] [2] [3]
The genus contains the following species: [2]
The subfamily Catantopinae is a group of insects classified under family Acrididae. Genera such as Macrotona may sometimes called "spur-throated grasshoppers", but that name is also used for grasshoppers from other subfamilies, including the genus Melanoplus from the Melanoplinae.
Nemesiidae is a family of mygalomorph spiders first described by Eugène Simon in 1889, and raised to family status in 1985. Before becoming its own family, it was considered part of "Dipluridae". The family is sometimes referred to as wishbone spiders due to the shape of their burrows.
Cyclosa, also called trashline orbweavers, is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by Anton Menge in 1866. Widely distributed worldwide, spiders of the genus Cyclosa build relatively small orb webs with a web decoration. The web decoration in Cyclosa spiders is often linear and includes prey remains and other debris, which probably serve to camouflage the spider. The name "Cyclosa" comes from Greek 'to move in a circle', referring to how it spins its web.
The Platycnemididae are a family of damselflies. They are known commonly as white-legged damselflies. There are over 400 species native to the Old World. The family is divided into several subfamilies.
Tetragnatha is a genus of long-jawed orb-weavers found all over the world. It was first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1804, and it contains hundreds of species. Most occur in the tropics and subtropics, and many can run over water. They are commonly called stretch spiders in reference to their elongated body form and their ability to hide on blades of grass or similar elongated substrates by stretching their front legs forward and the others behind them. The name Tetragnatha is derived from Greek, tetra- a numerical prefix referring to four and gnatha meaning "jaw". Evolution to cursorial behavior occurred long ago in a few different species, the most studied being those found on the Hawaiian islands. One of the biggest and most common species is T. extensa, which has a holarctic distribution. It can be found near lakes, river banks or swamps. Large numbers of individuals can often be found in reeds, tall grass, and around minor trees and shrubs.
The subfamily Pseudophyllinae contains numerous species in the family Tettigoniidae, the katydids or bush crickets. Sometimes called "true katydids", together with the crickets of suborder Ensifera, they form part of the insect order Orthoptera which also contains grasshoppers.
The Phaneropterinae, the sickle-bearing bush crickets or leaf katydids, are a subfamily of insects within the family Tettigoniidae. Nearly 2,060 species in 85 genera throughout the world are known. They are also known as false katydids or round-headed katydids.
Ditha is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the family Chthoniidae. There are about 14 described species in Ditha.
Chernetidae is a family of pseudoscorpions, first described by Anton Menge in 1855.
Cryptocheiridium is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the Cheiridiidae family. It was described in 1931 by American arachnologist Joseph Conrad Chamberlin.
Geolycosa is a genus of wolf spiders first described in 1904.
Titanatemnus is a pseudoscorpion genus of the Atemnidae.
Pycnothelidae is a family of mygalomorph spiders first described in 1917. It was downgraded to a subfamily of the funnel-web trapdoor spiders in 1985, but returned to family status in 2020.
Geogarypus is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the Geogarypidae family. It was described in 1930 by American arachnologist Joseph Conrad Chamberlin. The genus has a cosmopolitan distribution.
Paratemnoides is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the Atemnidae family. It was described in 1991 by Australian arachnologist Mark Harvey.
Withius is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the Withiidae family. It was described in 1911 by English zoologist Harry Wallis Kew. The generic name Withius honours Danish arachnologist Carl Johannes With (1877–1923).
Olpium is a genus of pseudoscorpions in the Olpiidae family. It was described in 1873 by German arachnologist Ludwig Carl Christian Koch.
