Equidae
Equidae (sometimes known as the horse family) is the taxonomic family of horses and related animals, including the extant horses, donkeys, and zebras, and many other species known only from fossils. All extant species are in the genus "Equus". Equidae belongs to the order Perissodactyla, which includes the extant tapirs and rhinoceros, and several extinct families.
Empusidae
Empusidae belong to the superfamily Mantoidea, (“higher” mantises), together with Mantidae and Hymenopodidae [5]. Phylogenetic studies place Empusidae as a sister group to Hymenopodidae. Empusidae and Hymenopodidae are in turn placed as sister groups to all other ambush mantids [3]. There are two subfamilies within Empusidae, Blepharodinae and Empusinae. The Blepharodinae subfamily holds three genera, Blepharodes, Blepharopsis and Idolomantis. The Empusinae subfamily is divided into two tribes, Empusini and Idolomorphini. The Empusini tribe holds five genera, Dilatempusa, Empusa, Gonglyus and Hypsicorypha (see List of mantis genera and species). The Idolomorphini tribe holds the three remaining genera,Hemiempusa, Idolomorpha (see List of mantis genera and species) and Chopardempusa [6]. The latest phylogeny was revised by Svenson et al. 2015 [1].Svenson, Gavin J., et al.
