Cymindis sabulosa is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. [1] It was described by Victor Motschulsky in 1850. [1]
Tiger beetles are a family of beetles, Cicindelidae, known for their aggressive predatory habits and running speed. The fastest known species of tiger beetle, Rivacindela hudsoni, can run at a speed of 9 km/h, or about 125 body lengths per second. As of 2005, about 2,600 species and subspecies were known, with the richest diversity in the Oriental (Indo-Malayan) region, followed by the Neotropics. While historically treated as a subfamily of ground beetles (Carabidae) under the name Cicindelinae, several studies since 2020 indicated that they should be treated as a family, the Cicindelidae, which are a sister group to Carabidae within the Adephaga.
Victor Ivanovich Motschulsky, sometimes Victor von Motschulsky was a Russian entomologist mainly interested in beetles.
Latridiidae is a family of tiny, little-known beetles commonly called minute brown scavenger beetles or fungus beetles. The number of described species currently stands at around 1050 in 29 genera but the number of species is undoubtedly much higher than this and increases each time a new estimate is made.
Harpalus is a genus of ground beetle first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1802.
Melyridae are a family of beetles of the superfamily Cleroidea.
Bembidion is the largest genus of beetles in the family Carabidae by number of species. All species are small and move very fast. Most of them live close to water. The genus has a biantitropical distribution, meaning they are found in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, but not in the tropics. In warmer regions it is substituted by closely related Tachys and other genera.
Elaphrus is a genus in the beetle family Carabidae. There are at least 40 described species in Elaphrus.
