This work presents a comprehensive classification of various insect families and genera, focusing on the Mesodermaptera and its subdivisions. It begins with an introduction to the Mesodermaptera sectio nova, detailing the Carcinophoroidea superfamily and the Carcinophoridae family. The classification is organized into subfamilies, including Platylabiinae, Gonolabiinae, and Carcinophorinae, with numerous genera listed under each. Notable genera such as Platylabia, Gonolabina, and Anophthalmolabis are highlighted, along with newer genera like Indolabis and Flexiolabis. The text continues with the Brachylabiinae and Isolabiinae subfamilies, introducing additional genera such as Metisolabis and Pterolabis. The Labiduridae family is also explored, featuring subfamilies like Allostethinae and Nalinae, which include genera such as Gonolabidura and Nala. The work concludes with the Paradermaptera section, specifically the Apachyoidea superfamily and Apachyidae family, presenting genera like Dendroiketes and Apachyus. The systematic index provides a structured overview of the classifications, ensuring clarity and accessibility for researchers and enthusiasts in the field of entomology.
