Archon is a genus of Palaearctic swallowtail butterflies in the subfamily Parnassiinae. Traditionally, only two species have been recognized: Archon apollinus and Archon apollinaris. Recent studies, however, have given specific status to a third taxon, Archon bostanchii, and suggested that further subspecies could warrant recognition as species.

Species 2000 is a federation of database organizations around the world that compiles the Catalogue of Life, a comprehensive checklist of the world's species, in partnership with the Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS). The creation of Species 2000 was initiated by Frank Bisby and colleagues at the University of Reading in the UK in 1997 and the Catalogue of Life was first published in 2001. While administrators and member organizations of Species 2000 are located around the world, the secretariat is located at the Naturalis Biodiversity Center in Leiden, Netherlands.
Megalopinus is the only genus in the subfamily Megalopsidiinae of the Staphylinidae. Species in this genus have large eyes, antennae with distinct di- or trisegmented clubs. The tarsal formula is 5-5-5. They have unique elongated processes at the anterior margin of the labrum. They are found in decaying trees and fungus-infested logs. Four species are found in North America: Megalopinus caelatus, Megalopinus punctatus, Megalopinus rufipes and Megalopinus lingafelteriMainda, 2023.

Omalorphanus is monotypic genus of beetles in the family Staphylinidae, the rove beetles, where it is placed in the subfamily Omaliinae. The only species is Omalorphanus aenigma. The genus and the species were described by John Milton Campbell and Donald S. Chandler in 1987 from the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest (Oregon) at elevations of 3,500 feet (1,100 m) to 4,000 feet (1,200 m). It was described by them as unusual for its number of unusual morphological features, which made the placement of the species difficult.
