Forficulina
Neodermaptera, sometimes called Catadermaptera,BioLib.cz suborder Catadermaptera Steinmann, 1986 (retrieved 16 September 2022) is a suborder of earwigs in the order Dermaptera. There are more than 2,000 described species in Neodermaptera. The former suborders Forficulina, Hemimerina, and Arixeniina have been reduced in rank to family and placed into the new suborder Neodermaptera. Neodermaptera now contains all the extant species of Dermaptera, while the extinct species make up the suborders Archidermaptera and Eodermaptera.

Dermaptera
Earwigs make up the insect order Dermaptera. With about 2,000 species in 12 families, they are one of the smaller insect orders. Earwigs have characteristic cerci, a pair of forceps-like pincers on their abdomen, and membranous wings folded underneath short, rarely used forewings, hence the scientific order name, "skin wings". Some groups are tiny parasites on mammals and lack the typical pincers. Earwigs are found on all continents except Antarctica. Earwigs are mostly nocturnal and often hide in small, moist crevices during the day, and are active at night, feeding on a wide variety of insects and plants. Damage to foliage, flowers, and various crops is commonly blamed on earwigs, especially the common earwig '' Forficula auricularia.'' Earwigs have five molts in the year before they become adults. Many earwig species display maternal care, which is uncommon among insects. Female earwigs may care for their eggs; the ones that do will continue to watch over nymphs until ...

Labiduridae
Labiduridae, whose members are known commonly as striped earwigs, is a relatively large family of earwigs in the suborder Neodermaptera. Taxonomy The family contains a total of approximately 72 species, spread across seven genera in three subfamilies. Some well-known members of the family include '' Labidura riparia'', commonly known as the tawny earwig, and '' Gonolabidura meteor''. The family is mostly cosmopolitan, so it can be found around the world. At least two species have been described from middle Cretaceous aged Burmese amber, '' Myrrholabia'' and '' Zigrasolabis''. Description The family's members are moderate to large earwigs, and are cylindrically shaped with well-developed wings. They have especially long antennae, while some segments can be shorter, and large cerci. Genera The family contains the following genera: * Subfamily Allostethinae Verhoeff, 1904 ** '' Allostethella'' Zacher, 1910 ** '' Allostethus'' Verhoeff, 1904 ** '' Gonolabidura'' Zacher, 1910 ** ...
