All Loriciferan Genera (Loricifera)

Loriciferan Genera (Loricifera) is a Browse By group of the Nature Atlas that gathers genera of the loriciferans, microscopic marine animals of the phylum Loricifera that live in the sediment of the sea floor, such as Australoricus, whose only described species was found in sea caves off New South Wales, Australia. An entry belongs here when its own cited article describes a genus of Loricifera. It excludes the fossil arthropod genera, the hermit crab genera, the nautilus genera and the reef coral genera, which have groups of their own. The group lets a reader find one of the smallest and least familiar of the animal lineages that live on the sea floor.
