Elmidae, commonly known as riffle beetles, is a family of beetles in the superfamily Byrrhoidea described by John Curtis in 1830. Both adults and larvae are usually aquatic, living under rocks in fast-flowing shallow areas of streams, such as riffles, feeding on algae and biofilms. There are more than 150 genera and 1,500 described species in Elmidae. The oldest record of the group is Cretohypsilara from the Cenomanian aged Burmese amber.
Elminae is a subfamily of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are at least 120 genera and more than 1,300 described species in Elminae.
Elmini is a tribe of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are more than 90 genera and 1,200 described species in North America.
Bryelmis rivularis is a species of riffle beetle in the family Elmidae. It is found in North America.
Bryelmis is a genus of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are at least three described species in Bryelmis.
Bryelmis idahoensis is a species of riffle beetle in the family Elmidae. It is found in North America.
Optioservus seriatus is a species of riffle beetle in the family Elmidae. It is found in North America.
Optioservus canus, the pinnacles optioservus riffle beetle, is a species of riffle beetle in the family Elmidae. It is found in North America.

Heterelmis glabra is a species of riffle beetle in the family Elmidae. It is found in Central America and North America. The largest populations of this riffle beetle are found in springs associated with the upper Devils River in south-central Texas. Spring-adapted organisms such as this beetle have life-history patterns requiring surface components, which makes them more vulnerable to changes in spring flow that alter the surface habitat.
