Dyschirius owen is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Scaritinae. [1] It was described by Dajoz in 2004. [1]
The Zopheridae family of beetles has grown considerably in recent years as the members of two other families have been included within its circumscription; these former families are the Monommatidae and the Colydiidae, which are now both included in the Zopheridae as subfamilies or even as tribe of subfamily Zopherinae. Some authors accept up to six subfamilies here, while others merge all except the Colydiinae into the Zopherinae.
Corticaria is a genus of beetles in the family Latridiidae, containing the following species:
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.
Jacobsoniidae are a family of tiny beetles belonging to Staphylinoidea. The larvae and adults live under bark, in plant litter, fungi, bat guano and rotten wood. There are around 28 described species in three genera:
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 eating.
Latridiinae is a subfamily of tiny, little-known beetles in the family Latridiidae.
Cartodere is a genus of beetles in the family Latridiidae, containing the following species:
Pterostichinae is a subfamily of ground beetles. It belongs to the advanced harpaline assemblage, and if these are circumscribed sensu lato as a single subfamily, Pterostichinae are downranked to a tribe Pterostichini. However, as the former Pterostichitae supertribe of the Harpalinae as loosely circumscribed does seem to constitute a lineage rather distinct from Harpalus, its core group is here considered to be the present subfamily and the Harpalinae are defined more narrowly.
Scaritinae is a large subfamily of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing more than 2400 species in over 140 genera. They are found worldwide.
Dyschirius is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae:
Adistemia is a genus of beetles in the family Latridiidae, containing the following species:
Melanophthalma is a genus of beetles in the family Latridiidae, containing the following species:
Migneauxia is a genus of beetles in the family Latridiidae, containing the following species:
Trechus apache is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Trechinae. It was described by Dajoz in 1990.
Dyschirius jindrai is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Scaritinae. It was described by Fedorenko in 2004.
Dyschirius chiricahuae is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Scaritinae. It was described by Dajoz in 2004.
Dyschirius soda is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Scaritinae. It was described by Dajoz in 2004.
Dyschirius wayah is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Scaritinae. It was described by Dajoz in 2005.

Aulonium is a genus of cylindrical bark beetles in the family Zopheridae.
