Clinidium is a genus of wrinkled bark beetles in the subfamily Rhysodinae. [2] [3] Most species are Neotropical, but some occur further north in North America and there is also one species in Europe ( Clinidium canaliculatum [4] ) and one in Japan. [3] Two species are known from Miocene amber. [1]
There are five subgenera: [3] [5]
The genus contains the following species: [2] [3]
Arrowina is a genus of wrinkled bark beetles in the family Carabidae. The genus occurs in Asia, with records from at least Sri Lanka, southern India, Nepal, Thailand, Sumatra (Indonesia), and Japan.
Kaveinga is a genus of wrinkled bark beetles in the family Carabidae.
Clinidium apertum is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Edmund Reitter in 1880. It is endemic to the eastern United States.
Clinidium chevrolati is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Edmund Reitter in 1880. It is known with some certainty only from Pico Turquino in the Sierra Maestra, Cuba—the type locality of Clinidium turquinense—the type locality of Clinidium chevrolati, "Neu Granada", seems to be in error.
Clinidium beccarii is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Antoine Henri Grouvelle in 1903. It is known from Hatam, New Guinea. It is named after the collector of the holotype, Odoardo Beccari. The holotype is a male measuring 8 mm (0.31 in) in length.
Clinidium centrale is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Antoine Henri Grouvelle in 1903. It is endemic to Costa Rica. Clinidium centrale measure 6–7.4 mm (0.24–0.29 in) in length.
Clinidium dubium is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Antoine Henri Grouvelle in 1903. It is known from Loja, Ecuador. The holotype measures 5.7 mm (0.22 in) in length.
Clinidium foveolatum is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Antoine Henri Grouvelle in 1903. It is known from Ecuador.
Clinidium insigne is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Antoine Henri Grouvelle in 1903. It is known from Ecuador, provisionally from Cali, Colombia, and Yacambú National Park in Venezuela.
Clinidium integrum is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Antoine Henri Grouvelle in 1903. It is known from its type locality in western Amazonas state, Brazil, and from Leticia in Amazonas Department, Colombia.
Clinidium mathani is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Antoine Henri Grouvelle in 1903. Originally known from the Amazon Basin of Brazil—its type locality is in the Amazonas State, near the border with Peru and Colombia, and there is another record from Amapá—it is now also known from the Colombian Andes in the Cordillera de los Picachos National Natural Park (Caquetá) and from near Inzá (Cauca). It is named after collector of the holotype, M. de Mathan.
Clinidium pilosum is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Antoine Henri Grouvelle in 1903. It is known from Mérida state in western Venezuela, possibly extending into adjacent Colombia.
Clinidium validum is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Antoine Henri Grouvelle in 1903. It is widespread in the Amazon Basin of Brazil with records from Amazonas, Pará, and Amapá states. Clinidium validum measure 5.8–6.4 mm (0.23–0.25 in) in length.
Clinidium canaliculatum is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by O.G. Costa in 1839. It is found in southern Italy and in Greece and is an obligate saproxylic species associated with old-growth forests, with preference to wet biotopes with well-decayed wood. Clinidium canaliculatum measure 6–7.5 mm (0.24–0.30 in) in length.
Clinidium cavicolle is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Louis Alexandre Auguste Chevrolat in 1873. It is known from Colombia; there is an uncertain record from Brazil too. There is uncertainty as regards to the origin of the type specimen(s) as the original label refers to "Nova-Grenata, Bogoto", probably referring to Bogota. What is now designated as the lectotype is from Ocaña, Norte de Santander. The other syntype, probably of "the other sex", matches Chevrolat's description less well and was described in 1985 as Clinidium humile.
Clinidium curvicosta is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Louis Alexandre Auguste Chevrolat in 1873. It is endemic to the Sierra Maestra in Cuba.
Clinidium granatense is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Louis Alexandre Auguste Chevrolat in 1873. It is known from Colombia.
Clinidium mexicanum is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Louis Alexandre Auguste Chevrolat in 1873. It is endemic to the southern part of the Mexican Plateau. Clinidium mexicanum measure 6–8.5 mm (0.24–0.33 in) in length.
Clinidium rojasi is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Louis Alexandre Auguste Chevrolat in 1873. It is known from the mountains of northern Venezuela between Falcón and Aragua states and from Guyana.
Clinidium oberthueri is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Antoine Henri Grouvelle in 1903. It is known from Ecuador where it is known with certainty from the eastern side of the Andes, and from Barbacoas, Nariño, on the other versant of the Andes in Colombia.
