Rock-wallaby
The rock-wallabies are the wallabies of the genus Petrogale.
Stranvaesia
Stranvaesia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Rosaceae. Its morphology is so similar to Photinia that it has sometimes been included within that genus, but recent molecular data indicate that the two genera are distinct.
Stachybotrys
Stachybotrys () is a genus of molds, hyphomycetes or asexually reproducing, filamentous fungi, now placed in the family Stachybotryaceae. The genus was erected by August Carl Joseph Corda in 1837. Historically, it was considered closely related to the genus Memnoniella, because the spores are produced in slimy heads rather than in dry chains. Recently, the synonymy of the two genera is generally accepted. Most Stachybotrys species inhabit materials rich in cellulose. The genus has a widespread distribution and contained about 50 species in 2008. There are 88 records of Stachybotrys on Species
Chamarea
Chamarea is a genus of flowering plant in the Apiaceae, with 5 species. It is found in southern Africa.
Phragmidiaceae
The Phragmidiaceae are a family of rust fungi in the order Pucciniales. The family contains 14 genera and 164 species.
Theriophonum
Theriophonum is a genus of flowering plants in the family Araceae. It is found only in India and Sri Lanka. The genus is closely related to Typhonium. The only apparent difference between the two is in how many ovules each have and the overall size of the plants. Typhoniums are bigger than Theriophonum.
Coniocybaceae
The Coniocybaceae are the sole family of lichen-forming fungi in the Coniocybales, which itself is the only order in the class Coniocybomycetes.
