Cucujiformia is an infraorder of polyphagan beetles, representing most plant-eating beetles.
Cucujoidea is a superfamily of beetles. This group formerly included all of the families now included in the superfamily Coccinelloidea. They include some fungus beetles and a diversity of lineages of "bark beetles" unrelated to the "true" bark beetles (Scolytinae), which are weevils.
Bothrideridae is a family of beetles in the superfamily Coccinelloidea. They are known commonly as the cocoon-forming beetles or dry bark beetles. They occur worldwide with most native to the Old World tropics. In older literature, the family was often included in the family Colydiidae, but is now considered unrelated.
Cerylonidae are small to tiny, smooth, shiny, hairless beetles, only lightly punctured. There are about 450 species worldwide in 50 or so genera, mostly tropical and subtropical. They are most common under the bark of dead trees, but can also occur in compost and other decaying plant material. Little is known specifically about their biology but they are thought to be either predators that feed on other small animals, or fungus-feeders.
Hymaea is a genus of beetles in the family Phloeostichidae.
Anommatus duodecimstriatus is a species of beetle in family Teredidae. It is found in the Palearctic region.
Teredidae is a family of beetles in the superfamily Coccinelloidea, formerly included within the family Bothrideridae. There are around 160 species in 10 genera, found worldwide except South America. Teredids are generally found under bark, in the galleries of wood-boring beetles, or in leaf litter. They are thought to be fungivores. The oldest records of the family are Delteredolaemus from mid-Cretaceous aged Burmese amber from Myanmar and a species of Teredolaemus from Eocene aged Baltic amber.
Anamorphidae is a family of beetles in the superfamily Coccinelloidea, formerly included within the family Endomychidae. They are found worldwide. Like enchomyids, they are fungivores, with adult and larval stages thought to exclusively consume fungal spores.
Eupsilobiidae is a family of beetles in the superfamily Coccinelloidea, formerly included within the family Endomychidae. Most genera are restricted to the Neotropics, while the genus Eidoreus is found worldwide. They are fungivores, and have been observed living commensally in bee and ant nests.
Bystus is a genus of beetles in the family Anamorphidae. There are about six described species in Bystus.
Eidoreus is a genus of beetles in the family Eupsilobiidae. There are at least two described species in Eidoreus.
Clemmus is a genus of beetles in the family Anamorphidae. There are at least two described species in Clemmus.
Rhymbomicrus is a genus of beetles in the family Anamorphidae. There are at least four described species in Rhymbomicrus.
Mycetaea is a genus of beetles in the family Mycetaeidae. There is at least one described species in Mycetaea, M. subterranea.
Mychocerinus is a genus of beetles in the family Murmidiidae. There are at least two described species in Mychocerinus.
Micropsephodes is a genus of beetles in the family Anamorphidae. There are at least two described species in Micropsephodes.
Rustleria is a genus of beetles in the family Teredidae. There is one described species in Rustleria, R. obscura.
Euxestus is a genus of well polished beetles in the family Euxestidae. There are about six described species in Euxestus.
Hypodacne is a genus of well polished beetles in the family Euxestidae. There is one described species in Hypodacne, H. punctata.
Oxylaemus is a genus of beetles in the family Teredidae. There are at least three described species in Oxylaemus.
