<i>Pterostichus</i> Genus of beetles

Pterostichus is a very large genus of ground beetles with a Holarctic distribution in the subfamily Harpalinae. It has over 1,100 species. The beetles are predatory, but sometimes feed on strawberries. They can be found under rocks and prefer slightly moist, sandy soil although preferences differ between species. Pterostichus contains the following species:

Platyninae Subfamily of beetles

Platyninae is a subfamily of ground beetles. Occasionally it was treated as a tribe Platynini of subfamily Harpalinae, particularly when this was circumscribed loosely.

Agonum albicrus is a species of ground beetle in the Platyninae subfamily. It was described by Dejean in 1828 and is endemic to United States.

Agonum anthracinum is a species of ground beetle from a subfamily of Platyninae. It was described by Dejean in 1831 and is found in Mexico and the United States.

Agonum bicolor is a species of ground beetle in the Platyninae subfamily. It was described by Dejean in 1828 and is found in Japan, Kazakhstan, Mongolia and Russia. Besides those countries it can be found in the US state of Alaska, and British Columbia, Canada, where it was discovered in March 1981, on Bougie Creek. One of such species was found near Liard River in May 1981.

Agonum cupreum is a species of ground beetle from the subfamily Platyninae. It was described by Dejean in 1828 and is found in Duluth, Minnesota and Canada.

Agonum excavatum is a species of ground beetle from Platyninae subfamily that can be found in Suffolk County, Massachusetts.

Agonum sordidum is a species of ground beetle in the Platyninae subfamily. It is found in European countries like the former Yugoslavian states of Croatia and Slovenia, and the former Soviet Union state of Ukraine. It can be found in countries like Albania, and on islands such as Crete and Dodecanese. Belgium, Greece, and Italy, are also common distribution places for the species. Also it is widely distributed in Asia, in countries like Lebanon, Syria, and Turkey.

Agonum scitulum is a species of ground beetle in the Platyninae subfamily. It is found in European countries like Belarus, Belgium, Estonia, France, Germany, Great Britain, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Netherlands, Romania, Russia, and Switzerland.

Pterostichinae Subfamily of beetles

Pterostichinae is a subfamily of ground beetles. It belongs to the advanced harpaline assemblage, and if these are circumscribed sensu lato as a single subfamily, Pterostichinae are downranked to a tribe Pterostichini. However, as the former Pterostichitae supertribe of the Harpalinae as loosely circumscribed does seem to constitute a lineage rather distinct from Harpalus, its core group is here considered to be the present subfamily and the Harpalinae are defined more narrowly.

<i>Abacetus</i> Genus of beetles

Abacetus is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, distributed across Africa, Asia and Australia, with a single European species. It contains the following species:
