Cymindis triangularis is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. [1] It was described by Reitter in 1897. [1]
Carabus is a genus of beetles in family Carabidae. The genus is highly diverse with 94 subgenera, 959 species and 2300 subspecies, thus is the largest genus in the subfamily Carabinae. The vast majority are native to the Palearctic, but 16 Nearctic species are also known. Carabus spp. are 12–50 mm (0.47–1.97 in) long, and most species are wingless and often very colourful. These are nocturnal, predatory beetles that feed on snails, earthworms, and caterpillars. Most Carabus species were thought to have inhabited the Eurasian forest, but the species' low dispersal abilities altered the distribution of lineages within the genus.
Harpalus is a genus of ground beetle first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1802.
Pterostichus is a very large genus of ground beetles with a Holarctic distribution in the subfamily Harpalinae. It has over 1,200 species. The beetles are predatory, but sometimes feed on strawberries. They can be found under rocks and prefer slightly moist, sandy soil although preferences differ between species.
Onthophagus is a genus of dung beetles in the Onthophagini tribe of the wider scarab beetle family, Scarabaeidae. It is the most species-rich and widespread genus in the subfamily Scarabaeinae, with a global distribution.
Cymindis is a genus of ground beetle native to the Palearctic, the Near East, and North Africa. It contains the following species:
Alexiidae is a family of beetles. It contains a single genus, Sphaerosoma, formerly included within the family Cerylonidae, with around 50 species which are native to the western Palearctic. Species of Sphaerosoma are very small, around 1 to 2 mm in length rounded beetles with clubbed antennae. They are fungivores, having been observed feeding on mushrooms, and have been also been found in leaf litter and on decaying bark.
Dienerella is a genus of beetles in the family Latridiidae, containing the following species:
Monotomidae is a family of beetles in the superfamily Cucujoidea. The family is found worldwide, with approximately 240 species in 33 genera. The ecological habits of the family are diverse, with different members of the group being found under tree bark, in decaying vegetation, on flowers and in ant nests. Their ecology is obscure, while at least some species are mycophagous, feeding on the fruiting bodies of ascomycete fungi, Rhyzophagus are predators on bark beetles and possibly Phoridae larvae, with the larvae of some species also being mycophagous.
Cymindis bedeli is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. It was described by Tschitscherine in 1897.
Cymindis corax is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. It was described by Reitter in 1889.
Cymindis impressa is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. It was described by Reitter in 1893.
Cymindis kalavrytana is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. It was described by Reitter in 1884.
Cymindis pilosissima is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. It was described by Reitter in 1894.
Cymindis walteri is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. It was described by Reitter in 1889.
Athous is a genus of click beetles belonging to the family Elateridae.
Claviger is a genus of beetles in the family Staphylinidae, subfamily Pselaphinae. About 40 species and subspecies are described, divided into two subgenera, Claviger (Claviger) and Claviger (Clavifer). Claviger displays unusual biological adaptations to myrmecophily. This pselaphid is of palearctic distribution.
Hemicrepidius is a genus of click beetle belonging to the family Elateridae.
Eodorcadion is a genus of longhorn beetles of the subfamily Lamiinae, containing the following species:
Tetrops hauseri is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Reitter in 1897. It is known from Kazakhstan and China.
Harpalini is a tribe of a diverse group of ground beetles belonging to the subfamily Harpalinae within the broader family Carabidae. The tribe contains more than 1,900 species.
