Hello All,
Here is a comprhensive list of animals (shrimp, crays, snails, crabs and more!). It is in german but with a little time you will figure out some of the information. However, the animals are listed by scientific names. The pictures are great and who knows, you might just learn a little bit of the german language

Yes there were some changes in names recently. We did not invent them, the scientists did do the changes.
N. denticula sinensis is now N. heteropoda and Cardina japonica is now C. multidentata.
Little is know about the babaulti group. The mentioned species all show the signs that make them babaulti if you look at the actual scientific species description. Look closely, there is a cf. before the names, which means similiar to. However these critters will probably be revised soon. I would not bet that they are all of the same species and do interbreed.
There is a lot of confusion in shrimp taxonomy but these are the latest valid names.

New names are not really established until other scientists agree and start using them in their own publications. That's why I have not changed the scientific names in my list of shrimp yet. I'll give it some more time before making any changes.
By the way...that website has been known here already for a few years as I am one of the people who actually adds information and makes changes there.
