Jaera is a genus of isopods in the family Janiridae. There are more than 20 described species in Jaera. [1] [2] [3]
These 22 species belong to the genus Jaera:
The crustacean order Tanaidacea make up a minor group within the class Malacostraca. There are about 940 species in this order.
Orchestia is a genus of amphipods in the family Talitridae. Species in Orchestia are parasitized by the Filozoan species Txikispora philomaios.
Leucothoidae is a family of amphipods. It contains 138 species in 5 genera:
Bulimulidae is a taxonomic family of medium-sized to large, air-breathing, tropical and sub-tropical land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod molluscs in the superfamily Orthalicoidea.
Sphaeromatidae is a family of isopods, often encountered on rocky shores and in shelf waters in temperate zones. The family includes almost 100 genera and 619 known marine species. Within these genera, there are groups that share distinctive morphologies; further research may reclassify these genus-groups as separate families.
Palaemon is a genus of caridean shrimp in the family Palaemonidae.
Trichoniscidae are a family of isopods (woodlice), including the most abundant British woodlouse, Trichoniscus pusillus. Most species of woodlice that have returned to an aquatic or amphibian way of life belong to this family. Several species from the following genera live in water and on land: Titanethes, Cyphonetes, Alpioniscus, Scotoniscus, Bureschia, Brackenridgia, Mexiconiscus, Trichoniscoides, Cretoniscellus, Balearonethes and Cyphoniscellus.
Modiolus, the horsemussels, are a genus of medium-sized marine bivalve molluscs in the family Mytilidae.
Pandalus is a genus of shrimp in the family Pandalidae. Members of the genus are medium-sized and live on or near the seabed. Some species are the subject of commercial fisheries and are caught by trawling. One species, Pandalus montagui, lives in association with the reef-building polychaete worm, Sabellaria spinulosa.
Geophilus is a large, heterogeneous genus of soil centipedes in the family Geophilidae largely considered to be synonymous with Brachygeophilus. The generic name first appeared in Brewster's Edinburgh Encyclopaedia in 1814 as Geophilus electricus. This genus has a Holarctic distribution.
Diorymeropsis is a genus of flower weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae. There are about 11 described species in Diorymeropsis.
Ochthebius is a genus of minute moss beetles in the family Hydraenidae. There are at least 460 described species in Ochthebius.
Yumachrysa is a genus of green lacewings in the family Chrysopidae. There are at least four described species in Yumachrysa.
Gastrodes is a genus of dirt-colored seed bugs in the family Rhyparochromidae. There are about 14 described species in Gastrodes.
Janiridae is a family of isopods in the order Isopoda. There are more than 20 genera and 190 described species in Janiridae.
Atopetholus is a genus of millipedes in the family Atopetholidae. There are about eight described species in Atopetholus.

Mictis is a genus of sap-sucking insects in the family Coreidae, with species recorded from India, China, Vietnam and Malesia through to Australia. It was described by William Elford Leach in 1814.
Cryptops sometimes known as cave centipedes, is a centipede genus in the family Cryptopidae; species records have a world-wide distribution.
