Hymenopenaeus is a genus of prawns containing 17 species. [1]
Hippolytidae is a family of cleaner shrimp, also known as broken-back shrimp or anemone shrimp. The term "broken-back shrimp" also applies to the genus Hippolyte in particular and "cleaner shrimp" is sometimes applied exclusively to Lysmata amboinensis.
The family Pandalidae is a taxon of caridean shrimp. These species are commonly called pandalid shrimp. They are edible and have high economic value. They are characterised by the subdivided carpus of the second pereiopod and, mainly, by the lack of the chelae (claws) on the first pereiopod. This is a cold-water family, and their representation in tropical areas is made by deep-sea shrimp. The genus Physetocaris, sometimes placed in this family, is now considered to be in its own family, Physetocarididae.
Benthesicymus is a genus of prawns, containing the following species:
Scyllarus is a genus of slipper lobsters from the Atlantic Ocean, including the Mediterranean and Caribbean. Until 2002, the genus included far more species, but these are now placed in other genera. The following species remain in Scyllarus:
Heterocarpus is a genus of deep-sea shrimp, mainly of tropical areas all over the world.
Drillia is a genus of small sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Drilliidae.
Daphnella is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Raphitomidae.
Pleurotomella is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Raphitomidae.
Inodrillia is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Horaiclavidae.
Gymnobela is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Raphitomidae.
Mangelia is a large genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Mangeliidae.
Astyris is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Columbellidae, the dove snails.
Metapenaeopsis, the velvet shrimps, is a prawn genus in the family Penaeidae. It contains these species:
Sicyonia is a genus of prawns, placed in its own family, Sicyoniidae. It differs from other prawns in that the last three pairs of its pleopods are uniramous, rather than biramous as seen in all other prawns.
Nephropsis is a genus of lobsters containing 15 extant species:
Aristeidae is a family of Dendrobranchiata decapod crustaceans known as deep-sea shrimps, gamba prawns or gamba shrimps. Some species are subject to commercial fisheries.
Solenoceridae is a family of decapods, containing 10 genera. They are marine, inhabiting shallow and offshore waters from the mid-continental shelf, ranging from depths to 1000 meters deep, and are sometimes confused with other commercial shrimp species.
Solenocera is a genus of prawns in the family Solenoceridae. Solenocera occur from 0 to 2,067 meters deep in the ocean.
Acanthephyra is a genus of shrimp in the family Acanthephyridae, with species that live at depths from 0 to more than 5000 meters deep below the ocean surface.
