Anaspidacea
Anaspidacea is an order of crustaceans, comprising eleven genera in four families. Species in the family Anaspididae vary from being strict stygobionts (only living underground) to species living in lakes, streams and moorland pools, and are found only in Tasmania. Koonungidae is found in Tasmania and the south-eastern part of the Australian mainland, where they live in the burrows made by crayfish and in caves. The families Psammaspididae and Stygocarididae are both restricted to caves, but Stygocarididae has a much wider distribution than the other families, with '' Parastygocaris'' having species in New Zealand and South America as well as Australia; two other genera in the family are endemic to South America, and one, '' Stygocarella'', is endemic to New Zealand. Genera *Anaspididae Anaspididae is a family of freshwater crustacean that is endemic to Tasmania, Australia. The family contains 3 genera and 5 species.

Eucrenonaspides
''Eucrenonaspides oinotheke'' is a species of crustacean in the family Psammaspidae, endemic to Tasmania, the only species described in the genus ''Eucrenonaspides''. The ''Eucrenonaspides'' is a variation of the Anaspidaceans. It was described from a spring at 9 Payton Place, Devonport, Tasmania in 1980, making it "the first spring-dwelling syncarid recorded from the Australian region". It is listed as a vulnerable species on the IUCN Red List. A further undescribed species is known from south-western Tasmania. Description The ''Eucrenonaspides oinotheke'' is a type of crustacean and part of the ''Anaspidaceans'' family. The ''Eucrenonaspides oinotheke'' has its own unique structure that encompasses a head and thorax. These do not have a shieldlike carapace and the first thoracic segment is tightly joined with the head. They also have pairs of maxillipeds, and thoracic limbs associated with the mouth. The head of the ''Eucrenonaspides oinotheke'' is sub-rectangular and divi ...

William Thomas Calman
William Thomas Calman (29 December 1871 – 29 September 1952) was a Scottish zoologist, specialising in the Crustacea. From 1927 to 1936 he was Keeper of Zoology at the British Museum (Natural History) (now the Natural History Museum). Life He was born in Dundee, the son of Thomas Calman, a music teacher, and Agnes Beatts Maclean. He studied at the High School of Dundee. In the scientific societies in Dundee, he met D'Arcy Thompson. He later became Thompson's lab boy, which allowed him to attend lectures at University College, Dundee for free. A. D. Peacock, one of Thompson's successors to the chair of Natural history at Dundee, believed this appointment came about following a letter sent by Calman in 1891 asking Thompson's advice as to applying for a post in Edinburgh. After his graduation with distinction in 1895, he took on a lecturership at the university, where he remained for eight years. When Thompson died, Calman, along with Douglas Young, wrote his obituary notice ...
