Autocrates is a genus of beetles in the Trictenotomidae family with species across the Indomalayan realm. They are sexually dimorphic with males having longer and more sinuate mandibles. [1]
Six species have been described: [2] [3]
Cheirodes is a genus of darkling beetles in the Melanimini tribe. It was formerly known as Anemia until 1973, when T. J. Spilman determined Anemia to be a synonym of CheirodesGéné, 1839.
The Trictenotomidae are a small family of beetles in the superfamily Tenebrionoidea, containing fifteen species in two genera. Most species are found in the Oriental realm where they live in montane forest habitats. The family is considered, based on larval characters as well as sequence-based studies, to be closely related to the Salpingidae.
Lomaptera are beetles from the subfamily Cetoniinae, tribe Schizorhinini. The genus was created by Gory & Percheron, in 1833. The type species of the genus is Cetonia papua Guérin-Méneville, 1830. These cetoniids have the tip of the scutellum invisible, which makes the difference with the genus Ischiopsopha.
Colasposoma is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is known from Africa, Asia and Australia.
Platycorynus is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed in Africa and Asia.
Neoptychodes trilineatus is a species of flat-faced longhorn beetles in the subfamily Lamiinae.
Trictenotoma is a genus of beetle in the Trictenotomidae family. They have scales covering the elytra that fluoresce under ultraviolet light. Based on similarities in the larval characteristics, the family is thought to be closely related to the Salpingidae.
Protognathinus is an extinct genus of stag beetle from the Eocene of Europe, known from the Messel Pit in Germany. This genus is known from the single species P. spielbergi.
Cardiophorus is a genus of click beetles.
Colaspoides is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is one of the largest genera in the subfamily, containing over 260 species worldwide. It is an extant genus but there is at least one species, C. eocenicus, found in Baltic amber from the Upper Eocene of Russia, and the genus has also been reported from the Miocene of the Dominican Republic.
Afroeurydemus is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae, found in Africa. The genus was separated from Eurydemus in 1965 by Brian J. Selman, who moved all African species of Eurydemus he had seen to this genus or related African genera and considered it likely that Eurydemus was restricted to Fiji. Many species were also originally placed in Syagrus.
Micrambe, is a genus of beetles belonging to the family Cryptophagidae. The genus contains more than 45 species. Six species are known from Madagascar and Réunion. About 23 species are known from South Africa.
Eumolpini is a tribe of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is the largest tribe in the subfamily, with approximately 170 genera found worldwide. Members of the tribe almost always have a longitudinal median groove on the pygidium, which possibly helps to keep the elytra locked at rest. They also generally have a subglabrous body, as well as appendiculate pretarsal claws.
Grouvellinus is a genus of beetle in the family Elmidae. As of 2018, over forty species are recognized, including:
Typophorini is a tribe of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. The tribe contains approximately 100 genera, which are found worldwide. Members of the tribe are mainly characterized by notches on the tibiae of the middle and hind legs, which are sometimes referred to as antenna cleaners. They also generally have a subglabrous body, as well as bifid pretarsal claws.
Aoria is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. Members of the genus are distributed in East and Southeast Asia. Food plants are known for only a few species, all of which were recorded from Vitaceae.
Bromiini is a tribe of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. The tribe contains approximately 120 genera, which are found worldwide. They are generally thought to be an artificial group, often with a subcylindrical prothorax without lateral ridges and covered with setae or scales.
P. S. Nathan, P. Susai Nathan or P. Susainathan was an Indian naturalist, entomologist and a natural history specimen collector and dealer. His natural history business was continued by his daughter-in-law Theresa Rajabai Susai Nathan and still later by her daughter-in-law Nellie J.P. Nathan. A number of species are named after the collections made by him and his family.
Autocrates aeneus is a species of Trictenotomidae found along the Himalayas from India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. Males have larger mandibles which are sinuous.
