Family of silverfishes
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] [ 2] Coletinia [ 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 .
