Entomobryidae
Entomobryidae, sometimes called "slender springtails", is a family of springtails characterised by having an enlarged fourth abdominal segmentation (biology), segment and a well-developed furcula (Collembola), furcula. Species in this family may be heavily scaled and can be very colourful. The scale-less Entomobryidae are commonly caught in pitfall traps around the planet, and also occur in canopy faunas high up in trees (notably ''Entomobrya nivalis'', very common throughout Europe if not the Northern Hemisphere). There are more than 1700 described species in Entomobryidae. Genera These 38 genera belong to the family Entomobryidae: * ''Acanthurella'' Börner, 1906 * ''Acrocyrtus'' Yosii, 1959 * ''Amazhomidia'' * ''Americabrya'' Mari Mutt & Palacios-vargas, 1987 * ''Aphysa'' Handschin, 1925 * ''Ascocyrtus'' Yosii, 1963 * ''Australotomurus'' Stach, 1947 * ''Bessoniella'' Deharveng & Thibaud, 1989 * ''Calx (springtail), Calx'' * ''Coecobrya'' Yosii, 1956 * ''Corynothrix'' Tullbe ...

Sister Taxon
In phylogenetics, a sister group or sister taxon, also called an adelphotaxon, comprises the closest relative(s) of another given unit in an evolutionary tree. Definition The expression is most easily illustrated by a cladogram: Taxon A and taxon B are sister groups to each other. Taxa A and B, together with any other extant or extinct descendants of their most recent common ancestor (MRCA), form a monophyletic group, the clade AB. Clade AB and taxon C are also sister groups. Taxa A, B, and C, together with all other descendants of their MRCA form the clade ABC. The whole clade ABC is itself a subtree of a larger tree which offers yet more sister group relationships, both among the leaves and among larger, more deeply rooted clades. The tree structure shown connects through its root to the rest of the universal tree of life. In cladistic standards, taxa A, B, and C may represent specimens, species, genera, or any other taxonomic units. If A and B are at the same taxonomi ...

Although most introduced species are neutral or beneficial with respect to other species, invasive species ad ... in North America.

Collembola
Springtails (Collembola) form the largest of the three lineages of modern hexapods that are no longer considered insects (the other two are the Protura and Diplura). Although the three orders are sometimes grouped together in a class called Entognatha because they have internal mouthparts, they do not appear to be any more closely related to one another than they are to all insects, which have external mouthparts. Collembolans are omnivorous, free-living organisms that prefer moist conditions. They do not directly engage in the decomposition of organic matter, but contribute to it indirectly through the fragmentation of organic matter and the control of soil microbial communities. The word ''Collembola'' is from the ancient Greek "glue" and "peg"; this name was given due to the existence of the collophore, which was previously thought to stick to surfaces to stabilize the creature. Some DNA sequence studies suggest that Collembola represent a separate evolutionary line fro ...
