Taxa described in 1897

Theria ( or ; ) is a subclass of mammals amongst the Theriiformes. Theria contains the eutherians (which includes placental mammals) and the metatherians (which includes marsupials) but excludes the egg-laying monotremes and various extinct mammals evolving prior to the common ancestor of placentals and marsupials.

The Pezizales are an order of the subphylum Pezizomycotina within the phylum Ascomycota. The order contains 16 families, 199 genera, and 1683 species. It contains a number of species of economic importance, such as morels, the black and white truffles, and the desert truffles. The Pezizales can be saprobic, mycorrhizal, or parasitic on plants. Species grow on soil, wood, leaves and dung. Soil-inhabiting species often fruit in habitats with a high pH and low content of organic matter, including disturbed ground. Most species occur in temperate regions or at high elevation. Several members of th

The Hypocreales are an order of fungi within the class Sordariomycetes.

The Auriculariaceae are a family of fungi in the order Auriculariales. Species within the family were formerly referred to the "heterobasidiomycetes" or "jelly fungi", since many have gelatinous basidiocarps (fruit bodies) that produce spores on septate basidia. Around 100 species are known worldwide. All are believed to be saprotrophic, most growing on dead wood. Fruit bodies of several Auricularia species are cultivated for food on a commercial scale, especially in China.

Melanoleuca is a poorly known genus of saprotrophic mushrooms traditionally classified in the family Tricholomataceae. DNA studies have determined that this genus is closely related to Amanita and Pluteus and that it does not belong to the family Tricholomataceae.

The Trichocomaceae are a family of fungi in the order Eurotiales. Taxa are saprobes with aggressive colonization strategies, adaptable to extreme environmental conditions. Family members are cosmopolitan in distribution, ubiquitous in soil, and common associates of decaying plant and food material.

Erythrocebus is a genus of Old World monkey. All three species in this genus are found in Africa, and are known as patas monkeys. While previously considered a monotypic genus containing just E. patas, a 2017 review argued that, based on morphological evidence and heavy geographic separation between taxa, E. patas should be split back into distinct species as recognised in the 19th century.

The Mycosphaerellaceae are a family of sac fungi. They affect many common plants, such as eucalyptus, the myrtle family, and the Proteaceae. They have a widespread distribution.

Dothideales are an order of bitunicate fungi consisting mainly of saprobic or plant parasitic species.

Wallengrenia is a genus of skippers in the family Hesperiidae.

Sarmientoia is a genus of skippers in the family Hesperiidae, in which they are placed to tribe Phocidini.

Scobura is an Indomalayan genus of grass skippers in the family Hesperiidae.

Pseudosarbia is a genus of skippers in the family Hesperiidae.

Atarnes is a genus of skippers in the family Hesperiidae. It is monotypic, being represented by the single species Atarnes sallei.

Bornmuellera is a genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Brassicaceae. Its native range is Albania, Greece, former Yugoslavia, and Asiatic Turkey.

The genus Phaeoclavulina comprises over 60 species of coral fungi.

Ladona is a genus of dragonflies in the Libellulidae family. It contains three species.

Oerane is a genus of butterflies in the family Hesperiidae. Species of the genus are found in the Indomalayan realm.

Pseliastis is genus of moths in the family Heliozelidae, first described by Edward Meyrick in 1897. Three species are currently described, all endemic to Australia.

Asteridiella is a genus of fungi in the family Meliolaceae. The genus was circumscribed by Daniel McAlpine in 1897, who differentiated it from various other fungal genera:

Ingaderia is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Opegraphaceae. Species in this genus form pale, crusty patches that often crack when thick, and produce elongated fruiting bodies that appear as narrow slits on the surface. The genus was originally established with a single species from South America, but molecular studies published in 2023 expanded its scope to include several species previously classified in other genera such as Llimonaea and Paraingaderia. Species are distinguished by their thick, dark fruiting body walls, elongated ascospores divided by cross-walls, and the presen

Pteridiospora is a genus of fungi in the class Dothideomycetes. The relationship of this taxon to other taxa within the class is unknown (incertae sedis).

Hypocolpus is a genus of crabs in the family Xanthidae, containing the following species:

Pentagenella is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Opegraphaceae. It contains five species.

Carcinocoris is a genus of Asian ambush bugs, erected by Anton Handlirsch in 1897. These insects are typical of the tribe Carcinocorini and like the two other genera are notable in having claw-like modifications to their forelegs for capturing prey. Species have been recorded from southern China and Indochina.
