Parathelphusidae
''Arachnothelphusa rhadamanthysi''Cave crab, Borneo Parathelphusinae is a subfamily of freshwater crabs, which was formerly placed in the family Parathelphusidae; they are mainly found in South and Southeast Asia, but also found elsewhere in Asia and in Australia . The family is now considered as a junior synonym of the family Gecarcinucidae. The Parathelphusinae inhabit rivers, lakes and rice paddies. Some species, for example from the genus ''Somanniathelphusa'', are locally important as food, particularly in Thailand, Mizoram (India), etc. where they are an important ingredient in ''som tam''. Some others are very rare and close to extinction such as the Parathelphusa reticulata, Singapore's Swamp Forest Crab. Genera in this family are: *'' Adelaena'' *'' Arachnothelphusa'' *'' Austrothelphusa'' *'' Bakousa'' *'' Bassiathelphusa'' *'' Ceylonthelphusa'' *'' Clinothelphusa'' *'' Coccusa'' *'' Currothelphusa'' *'' Esanthelphusa'' *'' Geelvinkia'' *'' Geithusa'' *'' Heterothel ...

Animals are multicellular, eukaryotic organisms in the Kingdom (biology), biological kingdom Animalia. With few exceptions, animals Heterotroph, consume organic material, Cellular respiration#Aerobic respiration, breathe oxygen, are Motility, able to move, can Sexual reproduction, reproduce sexually, and go through an ontogenetic stage in which their body consists of a hollow sphere of Cell (biology), cells, the blastula, during Embryogenesis, embryonic development. Over 1.5 million Extant taxon, living animal species have been Species description, described—of which around 1 million are Insecta, insects—but it has been estimated there are over 7 million animal species in total. Animals range in length from to . They have Ecology, complex interactions with each other and their environments, forming intricate food webs. The scientific study of animals is known as zoology.

IUCN Red List
The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species, also known as the IUCN Red List or Red Data Book, founded in 1964, is the world's most comprehensive inventory of the global conservation status of biological species. It uses a set of precise criteria to evaluate the extinction risk of thousands of species and subspecies. These criteria are relevant to all species and all regions of the world. With its strong scientific base, the IUCN Red List is recognized as the most authoritative guide to the status of biological diversity. A series of Regional Red Lists are produced by countries or organizations, which assess the risk of extinction to species within a political management unit. The aim of the IUCN Red List is to convey the urgency of conservation issues to the public and policy makers, as well as help the international community to reduce species extinction. According to IUCN the formally stated goals of the Red List are to provi ...
