Haustoriidae
Haustoriidae is a family (biology), family of Amphipoda, amphipods. They are very distinctive stout-bodied burrowing animals. The following genera are included in the family: *''Acanthohaustorius'' Bousfield, 1965 *''Cunicus'' *''Eohaustorius'' J. L. Barnard, 1957 *''Haustorius'' P. L. St. Muller, 1775 *''Lepidactylus'' Say, 1818 *''Neohaustorius'' Bousfield, 1965 *''Parahaustorius'' Bousfield, 1971 *''Protohaustorius'' Bonsfield, 1965 *''Pseudohaustorius'' Bousfield, 1965 References Gammaridea Taxa named by Thomas Roscoe Rede Stebbing Amphipod families {{Amphipod-stub ...

Gammaridea
Gammaridea is one of the suborders of the order Amphipoda, comprising small, shrimp-like crustaceans. Until recently, in a traditional classification, it encompassed about 7,275 (92%) of the 7,900 species of amphipods described by then, in approximately 1,000 genera, divided among around 125 families. That concept of Gammaridea included almost all freshwater amphipods, while most of the members still were marine. The group is however considered paraphyletic, and is under deconstruction by the amphipod taxonomists J. Lowry and A. Myers. In 2003 they moved several families from Gammaridea to join members of the former Caprellidea in a new suborder Corophiidea.A. A. Myers & J. K. Lowry (2003).

Thomas Roscoe Rede Stebbing
The Reverend Thomas Roscoe Rede Stebbing Fellow of the Royal Society, FRS, Fellow of the Linnean Society, FLS (6 February 1835, London – 8 July 1926, Royal Tunbridge Wells) was a British zoology, zoologist, who described himself as "a serf to natural history, principally employed about crustacean, Crustacea". Educated in London and Oxford, he only took to natural history in his thirties, having worked as a teacher until then. Although an ordained Anglican priest, Stebbing promoted Darwinism in a number of popular works, and was banned from preaching as a result. His scientific works mostly concerned crustaceans, especially the Amphipoda and Isopoda, the most notable being his work on the amphipods of the Challenger expedition, ''Challenger'' expedition. His zoological author abbreviation is Stebbing.

Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms as well as viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. '' Panthera leo'' (lion) and '' Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants of an ancestral taxon are grouped together (i.e. phylogenetic analysis should c ...
