Augyles is a genus of variegated mud-loving beetles belonging to the family Heteroceridae. The genus has an almost cosmopolitan distribution [1] [2]
The following species are recognised in the genus Augyles: [1] [2]
Pentatominae is a subfamily of Pentatomidae, a family of shield bugs. This subfamily is the largest one within the Pentatomidae, having 4937 species classified in 938 genera. Species in this subfamily are phytophages and several of them are considered agricultural pests. Some invasive pentatomines such as Halyomorpha halys and Bagrada hilaris have been considered household pests. Higher systematics of the group have been revised by Rider et al.
Phyllobius is a genus of weevils containing at least 60 described species, some of which are commonly found in Europe.
Carabus is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae. The genus is highly diverse with 94 subgenera, 959 species and 2300 subspecies, thus is the largest genus in the subfamily Carabinae. The vast majority are native to the Palearctic, but 16 Nearctic species are also known. Carabus spp. are 12–50 mm (0.47–1.97 in) long, and most species are wingless and often very colourful. These are nocturnal, predatory beetles that feed on snails, earthworms, and caterpillars. Most Carabus species were thought to have inhabited the Eurasian forest, but the species' low dispersal abilities altered the distribution of lineages within the genus.
Harpalus is a genus of ground beetle first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1802.
Anthrenus is a genus of beetles in the Dermestidae family, skin beetles. One of several genera of carpet beetles, Anthrenus was historically placed in a subfamily Anthreninae, though presently included in the Megatominae. The genus Neoanthrenus is closely related.
Pterostichus is a very large genus of ground beetles with a Holarctic distribution in the subfamily Harpalinae. It has over 1,200 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.
Globicornis is a genus of beetles in the family Dermestidae, the skin beetles. They are distributed throughout the world.
Galeruca is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Galerucinae. It is distributed in the Palaearctic and Nearctic realms. In Turkey, the genus is represented by 10 species.
Athous is a genus of click beetles belonging to the family Elateridae.
Aplocnemus is an uncommon genus of beetles native to Europe and the British isles belonging to the family Rhadalidae, and formerly in the Melyridae.
Danacea is a genus of beetles belonging to the family Melyridae.
Hemicrepidius is a genus of click beetle belonging to the family Elateridae.
Byrrhus is a genus of pill beetles in the family Byrrhidae. There are at least 30 described species in Byrrhus.
Brachypterolus is a genus of short-winged flower beetles in the family Kateretidae. There are about six described species in Brachypterolus.
Omias is a genus of broad-nosed weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae. There are more than 50 described species in Omias.
Bryaxis is a genus of ant-loving beetles in the family Staphylinidae. There are more than 380 described species in Bryaxis.
