Best Answer

The prefixes identify what subdivision the fauna falls into for a given place or region; for example avifauna refers to the birds; entomofauna are the insects; epifauna are the animals living on the surface of the seabed or a riverbed, or attached to submerged objects or aquatic animals or plants; ichthyofauna refers to the fish; infauna are the animals living in the sediments of the ocean floor or river or lake beds; megafauna, the large mammals of a particular region, habitat, or geological period; and microfauna are the microscopic animals of a microhabitat.
