Licinopsis is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are about six described species in Licinopsis, found in the Canary Islands. [1] [2]
These six species belong to the genus Licinopsis:
Cluster flies are flies of the genus Pollenia in the family Polleniidae. Unlike the more familiar blow flies, such as the bluebottle genus Phormia, they are completely harmless to human health because they do not lay eggs in human food. They are strictly parasitic on earthworms; the females lay their eggs near earthworm burrows, and the larvae then feed on the worms. Cluster flies seek refuge in cold weather and find their way into attic spaces and similar areas indoors. They often emerge on warm days, and cluster at windows attempting to exit.
Ochyroceratidae is a six-eyed spider family, with 165 described species in ten genera. They are common inhabitants of caves and the tropical forest litter of South Africa, the Caribbean, Asia and South America. Considered an ecological counterpart of the Linyphiidae of the northern temperate zone, species are especially diverse in the Indo-Pacific region.
Leiostyla is a genus of small air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Lauriidae.
Heteragrion is a genus of damselflies in the subfamily Argiolestinae of the flatwing damselfly family Megapodagrionidae.
Paradromius is a genus of ground beetle native to the Palearctic, the Near East and North Africa. It contains the following species:
Paranchus is a genus of ground beetle native to Europe, the Near East, the Nearctic and North Africa. The species of this genus are either black or brown coloured.
Oligacanthorhynchida is an order containing a single parasitic worm family, Oligacanthorhynchidae, that attach themselves to the intestinal wall of terrestrial vertebrates.
Metadromius is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:
Philorhizus is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:
Gomerina is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are at least two described species in Gomerina, found in the Canary Islands.
Paraeutrichopus is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are at least two described species in Paraeutrichopus, found in the Canary Islands.
Calathidius is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are at least three described species in Calathidius, found in the Canary Islands.
Orthomus is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:
Orzolina is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. This genus has a single species, Orzolina thalassophila. It is found in the Canary Islands.
Thalassophilus is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:
Euxestus is a genus of well polished beetles in the family Euxestidae. There are about six described species in Euxestus.
Crouania is a genus of red algae (Rhodophyta) in the Callithamniaceae family. The name of the genus honours the Crouan brothers, Pierre-Louis Crouan and Hippolyte-Marie Crouan. It was first described by Jacob Georg Agardh in 1842, and the type species is Crouania attenuata.
Waltillia is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Bromeliaceae. It was considered to be a monotypic genus until the 2021 description of W. itambana.
Arrudatitan is an extinct genus of titanosaur sauropod dinosaur known from the Late Cretaceous (Campanian-Maastrichtian)-aged Adamantina Formation of Brazil. The type species, A. maximus, was named and described in 2011 as a species of Aeolosaurus, but was separated into its own genus in 2021. It was relatively gracile for a titanosaur.
Drouetius is a genus of true weevils. It has three described species, all of them from the Azores archipelago.
