Derostichus is a genus in the ground beetle family Carabidae. There are at least two described species in Derostichus. [1] [2]
These two species belong to the genus Derostichus:
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.
Chrysolina cerealis, the rainbow leaf beetle or Snowdon beetle, is a beetle belonging to the family Chrysomelidae.
Lamiinae, commonly called flat-faced longhorns, are a subfamily of the longhorn beetle family (Cerambycidae). The subfamily includes over 750 genera, rivaled in diversity within the family only by the subfamily Cerambycinae.
Derocrania is a genus of tiger beetles. There are about 16 described species in Derocrania, found in India and Sri Lanka.
Dregus is a genus in the ground beetle family Carabidae. This genus has a single species, Dregus glebalis. It is found in Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia.
Drymatus is a genus in the ground beetle family Carabidae. This genus has a single species, Drymatus tessellatus. It is found in South Africa.
Licininae is a subfamily of in the beetle family Cicindelidae. There are more than 80 genera and 1,800 described species in Licininae.
Chlaeminus is a genus in the ground beetle family Carabidae. There are about 16 described species in Chlaeminus, found in Africa and Asia.
Stereocerus is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:

Caelostomus sculptipennis is a species in the ground beetle family Carabidae. It is found in Sri Lanka and India.
Eutetrapha is a genus of longhorn beetles of the subfamily Lamiinae, containing the following species:
Chrysolina virgata is a species of leaf beetle in the genus Chrysolina.
Eutetrapha sedecimpunctata is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Victor Motschulsky in 1860, originally under the genus Saperda. It is known from North Korea, Russia, Japan, and China.
Laccobius is a genus of water scavenger beetles in the family Hydrophilidae. There are more than 80 described species in Laccobius.
Thoracophorus is a genus of unmargined rove beetles in the family Staphylinidae. There are more than 20 described species in Thoracophorus.
Colobicus is a genus of cylindrical bark beetles in the family Zopheridae. There are at least four described species in Colobicus.
Lepyrus is a genus of true weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae. There are more than 70 described species in Lepyrus.
Fidia is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed in East Asia, Southeast Asia and Africa.
Coniocleonus is a genus of beetles belonging to the family Curculionidae. The genus was first described by Motschulsky in 1860, and the species of this genus are found in Europe.
