Tetratomidae is a small family of beetles sometimes called polypore fungus beetles. The family consists of several genera, most of which used to be in the family Melandryidae. Tetratomidae can be found worldwide.
The Megaspilidae are a small hymenopteran family with 13 genera in two subfamilies, and some 450 known species, with a great many species still undescribed. It is a poorly known group as a whole, though most are believed to be parasitoids, and a few hyperparasitoids. Many are found in the soil, and of these, a number are wingless.
Cryptophagidae is a family of beetles with representatives found in all biogeographic realms. Members of this family are commonly called silken fungus beetles and both adults and larvae appear to feed exclusively on fungi although in a wide variety of habitats and situations, such as rotting wood and shed animal fur and feathers. These beetles vary from about 1 to 11 millimeters long, and usually have an oval body shape with a slight "waist".
Nemestrinidae, or tangle-veined flies is a family of flies in the superfamily Nemestrinoidea, closely related to Acroceridae. The family is small but distributed worldwide, with about 300 species in 34 genera. Larvae are endoparasitoids of either grasshoppers (Trichopsideinae) or scarab beetles (Hirmoneurinae). Some are considered important in the control of grasshopper populations. Adults are often observed on flowers.
Aglaothorax is a genus of ovate shieldbacks in the family Tettigoniidae. There are about six described species in Aglaothorax.
Myopsocidae is a family of mouse-like barklice, belonging to the infraorder Psocetae of the order Psocoptera. This family is closely related to Psocidae, with which it shares similar wing-venation, but from which it is distinguished by three-segmented tarsi.
Lachesillidae is a family of Psocoptera, or fateful barklice, belonging to the suborder Psocomorpha. Members of the family are characterised by a rounded, free areola postica in their wings. Males have diverse sclerotized genitalic structures. The family includes more than 400 species, most of them in the genus Lachesilla.
Gastrophysa is a genus of beetles in the family Chrysomelidae, in which the females typically exhibit swollen, membranous abdomens, a condition known as physogastrism.
The Ropalomeridae are a family of acalyptrate flies.
Stenodema is a genus of plant bugs in the family Miridae. There are about nine described species in Stenodema.
Tanymecini is a tribe of broad-nosed weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae. There are about 12 genera and at least 20 described species in Tanymecini.
Pharaxonotha is a genus of pleasing fungus beetles in the family Erotylidae. There are at least three described species in Pharaxonotha.
Tyrus is a genus of ant-loving beetles in the family Staphylinidae. There are about five described species in Tyrus.
Thecesternus is a genus of broad-nosed weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae. There are about seven described species in Thecesternus.
Ephydrinae is a subfamily of shore flies in the family Ephydridae. There are about 16 genera and at least 120 described species in Ephydrinae.
Siro is a genus of mite harvestmen in the family Sironidae. There are at least 20 described species in Siro.
Nycteus is a genus of plate-thigh beetles in the family Eucinetidae. There are about 11 described species in Nycteus.
Corixini is a tribe of water boatmen in the family Corixidae. There are about 9 genera and at least 30 described species in Corixini.
Nomiinae is a subfamily of sweat bees in the family Halictidae. There are about 11 genera and at least 550 described species in Nomiinae.
Hypoponera punctatissima, or Roger's ant, is a species of ant in the family Formicidae.
