Bathynellacea
Bathynellacea is an order of crustaceans which live interstitially in groundwater. Some species can tolerate low salt concentrations, and at least one African species is a thermophile, living in hot springs and tolerating temperatures up to . Bathynellaceans are minute, blind, worm-like animals with short, weak legs, reaching a maximum size of . They are found on every continent except Antarctica, although they are missing from some islands, including Fiji, New Caledonia and the Caribbean islands. There are two families, Bathynellidae and Parabathynellidae; a third family, "Leptobathynellidae", is considered a synonym A synonym is a word, morpheme, or phrase that means exactly or nearly the same as another word, morpheme, or phrase in a given language.

He was also the editor of a new edition of Carl Friedrich Wilhelm Claus' ''Lehrbuch der Zoologie'', and the coiner of the terms ''protostome'' and ''deuterostome''. Taxonomy Taxa named by Grobben include: *Eumalacostraca Grobben, 1892 * Sagittidae Claus & Grobben, 1905 * Sagittoidea Claus & Grobben, 1905 *Protostomia Grobben, 1908 *Deuterostomia Grobben, 1908 Taxa named in Grobben's honour include: *'' Gerbillus grobbeni'' Klaptocz, 1909 *'' Sphaerophthalmus grobbeni'' Spandl, 1923 *'' Limnadia grobbeni'' Daday, 1925 *''Actinia grobbeni ''Actinia'' is a genus of sea anemones in the family Actiniidae.
