Atelurinae | |
Nicoletiidae is a family of primitive insects belonging to the order Zygentoma. These insects live primarily underground, under detritus, or in caves. A few species are recorded as commensals inside nests of social insects, such as the species Allotrichotriura saevissima which lives inside fire ant nests.[1] Nicoletiids lack eyes and they lack pigmentation. They have long antennae and terminal abdominal filaments.[2] Coletinia, a genus of this family, range in size between 10 and 15mm, and may have yellowish pigmentation but most species are transparent.[3]
This list encompasses the genera accepted by entomologist Luis Mendes. As with most taxonomy, not all the listed genera are accepted by all authorities, such as Catalogue of Life or Interim Register of Marine and Nonmarine Genera.
