The Zoraptera Database
Catalog of the Order Zoraptera
The order Zoraptera, originally established in 1913 by Silvestri, is one of the smallest and least known of the insect orders. It presently contains only one family, Zorotypidae Silvestri, with two genera and 38 nominal species (33 Recent and five fossil), most of which are tropical in distribution.
The number of described taxa in this order has increased by about 50% since the catalog of Hubbard (1990) appeared. This paper is an attempt to catalog all references in the scientific literature to the species of the order Zoraptera. No attempt, however, has been made to include all references in text-books, field guides, popular articles, and other sources not of the primary scientific literature.
Each mention of a taxon is given in chronological order, followed by the author of the reference, the date and page and figure numbers, if any. For each reference to a species the stage (adult male, adult female, nymph, egg) described or figured (if able to be determined) is listed. Other annotations are included as appropriate. The known geographical distribution for each species is listed at the end of its list of references. Following the taxonomic catalog is a list of non-specific references to Zoraptera which are of interest.
