Argulidae
The family Argulidae, whose members are commonly known as carp lice or fish lice, are parasitic crustaceans in the class Ichthyostraca.
See Allotriocarida and Argulidae
Atelocerata
Atelocerata is a proposed clade of arthropods that includes Hexapoda (insects and a few related taxa) and Myriapoda (millipedes, centipedes, and similar taxa), but excludes Crustacea (such as shrimp and lobsters) and Chelicerata (such as spiders and horseshoe crabs).
See Allotriocarida and Atelocerata
Barnacle
Barnacles are arthropods of the subclass Cirripedia in the subphylum Crustacea.
See Allotriocarida and Barnacle
Branchiopoda
Branchiopoda is a class of crustaceans.
See Allotriocarida and Branchiopoda
Centipede
Centipedes (from Neo-Latin centi-, "hundred", and Latin pes, pedis, "foot") are predatory arthropods belonging to the class Chilopoda (Ancient Greek χεῖλος, kheilos, "lip", and Neo-Latin suffix -poda, "foot", describing the forcipules) of the subphylum Myriapoda, an arthropod group which includes millipedes and other multi-legged animals.
See Allotriocarida and Centipede
Cephalocarida
The Cephalocarida are a class in the subphylum Crustacea comprising only 12 species.
See Allotriocarida and Cephalocarida
Clade
In biological phylogenetics, a clade, also known as a monophyletic group or natural group, is a grouping of organisms that are monophyletic – that is, composed of a common ancestor and all its lineal descendants – on a phylogenetic tree.
Cladogram
A cladogram (from Greek clados "branch" and gramma "character") is a diagram used in cladistics to show relations among organisms.
See Allotriocarida and Cladogram
Copepod
Copepods (meaning "oar-feet") are a group of small crustaceans found in nearly every freshwater and saltwater habitat.
See Allotriocarida and Copepod
Detritivore
Detritivores (also known as detrivores, detritophages, detritus feeders or detritus eaters) are heterotrophs that obtain nutrients by consuming detritus (decomposing plant and animal parts as well as feces).
See Allotriocarida and Detritivore
Diplura
The order Diplura ("two-pronged bristletails") is one of three orders of non-insect hexapods within the class Entognatha (alongside Collembola (springtails) and Protura).
See Allotriocarida and Diplura
European mantis
The European mantis (Mantis religiosa) is a large hemimetabolic insect in the family of the Mantidae ('mantids'), which is the largest family of the order Mantodea (mantises).
See Allotriocarida and European mantis
Furongian
The Furongian is the fourth and final epoch and series of the Cambrian.
See Allotriocarida and Furongian
Genetic testing
Genetic testing, also known as DNA testing, is used to identify changes in DNA sequence or chromosome structure.
See Allotriocarida and Genetic testing
Hexapoda
The subphylum Hexapoda (from Greek for 'six legs') or hexapods comprises the largest clade of arthropods and includes most of the extant arthropod species. Allotriocarida and hexapoda are Pancrustacea.
See Allotriocarida and Hexapoda
Insect
Insects (from Latin insectum) are hexapod invertebrates of the class Insecta.
Lobster
Lobsters are malacostracans of the family Nephropidae (synonym Homaridae).
See Allotriocarida and Lobster
Millipede
Millipedes (originating from the Latin mille, "thousand", and pes, "foot") are a group of arthropods that are characterised by having two pairs of jointed legs on most body segments; they are known scientifically as the class Diplopoda, the name derived from this feature.
See Allotriocarida and Millipede
Molecular phylogenetics
Molecular phylogenetics is the branch of phylogeny that analyzes genetic, hereditary molecular differences, predominantly in DNA sequences, to gain information on an organism's evolutionary relationships.
See Allotriocarida and Molecular phylogenetics
Monophyly
In biological cladistics for the classification of organisms, monophyly is the condition of a taxonomic grouping being a clade – that is, a grouping of taxa which meets these criteria.
See Allotriocarida and Monophyly
Morphology (biology)
Morphology in biology is the study of the form and structure of organisms and their specific structural features.
See Allotriocarida and Morphology (biology)
Multicrustacea
The clade Multicrustacea constitutes the largest superclass of crustaceans, containing approximately four-fifths of all described crustacean species, including crabs, lobsters, crayfish, shrimp, krill, prawns, woodlice, barnacles, copepods, amphipods, mantis shrimp and others.
See Allotriocarida and Multicrustacea
Myriapoda
Myriapods are the members of subphylum Myriapoda, containing arthropods such as millipedes and centipedes.
See Allotriocarida and Myriapoda
Oligostraca
Oligostraca is a superclass of crustaceans. Allotriocarida and Oligostraca are Superclasses (biology).
See Allotriocarida and Oligostraca
Ostracod
Ostracods, or ostracodes, are a class of the Crustacea (class Ostracoda), sometimes known as seed shrimp.
See Allotriocarida and Ostracod
Pancrustacea
Pancrustacea is the clade that comprises all crustaceans, including hexapods (insects and relatives).
See Allotriocarida and Pancrustacea
Pentastomida
The Pentastomida are an enigmatic group of parasitic arthropods commonly known as tongue worms due to the resemblance of the species of the genus Linguatula to a vertebrate tongue; molecular studies point to them being highly-derived crustaceans.
See Allotriocarida and Pentastomida
Protura
The Protura, or proturans, and sometimes nicknamed coneheads, are very small (0.6–1.5mm long), soil-dwelling animals, so inconspicuous they were not noticed until the 20th century.
See Allotriocarida and Protura
Remipedia
Remipedia is a class of blind crustaceans, closely related to hexapods, found in coastal aquifers which contain saline groundwater, with populations identified in almost every ocean basin so far explored, including in Australia, the Caribbean Sea, and the Atlantic Ocean.
See Allotriocarida and Remipedia
Sister group
In phylogenetics, a sister group or sister taxon, also called an adelphotaxon, comprises the closest relative(s) of another given unit in an evolutionary tree.
See Allotriocarida and Sister group
Springtail
Springtails (Collembola) form the largest of the three lineages of modern hexapods that are no longer considered insects (the other two are the Protura and Diplura).
See Allotriocarida and Springtail
Terrestrial animal
Terrestrial animals are animals that live predominantly or entirely on land (e.g. cats, chickens, ants, spiders), as compared with aquatic animals, which live predominantly or entirely in the water (e.g. fish, lobsters, octopuses), and semiaquatic animals, which rely on both aquatic and terrestrial habitats (e.g.
See Allotriocarida and Terrestrial animal
Trachea
The trachea (tracheae or tracheas), also known as the windpipe, is a cartilaginous tube that connects the larynx to the bronchi of the lungs, allowing the passage of air, and so is present in almost all animals with lungs.
See Allotriocarida and Trachea
Triops longicaudatus
Triops longicaudatus (commonly called American tadpole shrimp or longtail tadpole shrimp) is a freshwater crustacean of the order Notostraca, resembling a miniature horseshoe crab.
See Allotriocarida and Triops longicaudatus
Venom
Venom or zootoxin is a type of toxin produced by an animal that is actively delivered through a wound by means of a bite, sting, or similar action.
