Pygospio is a genus of marine polychaete worms in the family Spionidae.

Spionidae Family of annelids

The saddleback toads are a genus of small, colourful toads the family Brachycephalidae in the order Anura. As traditionally defined, the family is often limited to just one genus, Brachycephalus, but it is closely related to Ischnocnema, which therefore is placed in the family in recent treatments. Brachycephalus species are tiny, often yellow frogs that are native to Atlantic Forest in southeastern Brazil. In at least one species, B. ephippium, the bright colours are aposematic, warning potential predators of its toxicity, specifically tetrodotoxin.

This was mistaken, however, and the fish and frog genera reverted to their original names.
