Acanthopidae is a family of mantises consisting of 16 genera in the order Mantodea. The group was first formally split off as a separate family by the German entomologist Reinhard Ehrmann in 2002. In 2016, five genera (''Acontista'', ''Callibia'', '' Paratithrone'', '' Raptrix'', and '' Tithrone'') were moved from Acanthopidae to the newly created family Acontistidae, but this has not been accepted in most recent classifications. Genera The following genera are recognised in the family Acanthopidae: * ''Acanthops'' Serville, 1831 * ''Acontista'' Saussure, 1872 * '' Astollia'' Kirby, 1904 * '' Callibia '' Stal, 1877 * '' Decimiana'' Uvarov, 1940 * '' Lagrecacanthops'' Roy, 2004 * '' Metacanthops'' Agudelo, Maldaner & Rafael, 2019 * '' Metilia'' Stal, 1877 * '' Miracanthops'' Roy, 2004 * '' Ovalimantis'' Roy, 2015 * '' Paratithrone'' Lombardo, 1996 * '' Plesiacanthops'' Chopard, 1913 * '' Pseudacanthops'' Saussure, 1870 * '' Raptrix'' Terra, 1995 * ''Stenophylla '' Westwood, 1845 * ...

Mantis
Mantises are an order (Mantodea) of insects that contains over 2,400 species in about 460 genera in 33 families. The largest family is the Mantidae ("mantids"). Mantises are distributed worldwide in temperate and tropical habitats. They have triangular heads with bulging eyes supported on flexible necks. Their elongated bodies may or may not have wings, but all Mantodea have forelegs that are greatly enlarged and adapted for catching and gripping prey; their upright posture, while remaining stationary with forearms folded, has led to the common name praying mantis. The closest relatives of mantises are termites and cockroaches (Blattodea), which are all within the superorder Dictyoptera. Mantises are sometimes confused with stick insects ( Phasmatodea), other elongated insects such as grasshoppers (Orthoptera), or other more distantly related insects with raptorial forelegs such as mantisflies (Mantispidae). Mantises are mostly ambush predators, but a few ground-dwelling s ...

Invertebrates Of Ecuador
Invertebrates are a paraphyletic group of animals that neither possess nor develop a vertebral column (commonly known as a ''backbone'' or ''spine''), derived from the notochord. This is a grouping including all animals apart from the chordate subphylum Vertebrata. Familiar examples of invertebrates include arthropods, mollusks, annelids, echinoderms and cnidarians. The majority of animal species are invertebrates; one estimate puts the figure at 97%. Many invertebrate taxa have a greater number and variety of species than the entire subphylum of Vertebrata. Invertebrates vary widely in size, from 50 μm (0.002 in) rotifers to the 9–10 m (30–33 ft) colossal squid. Some so-called invertebrates, such as the Tunicata and Cephalochordata, are more closely related to vertebrates than to other invertebrates. This makes the invertebrates paraphyletic, so the term has little meaning in taxonomy. Etymology The word "invertebrate" comes from the Latin word ''vertebra'', which ...
