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.
Stenus is a genus of semiaquatic rove beetles in the subfamily Steninae, and one of the largest genus in the kingdom Animalia, with some 2700 known species worldwide. They are predators of Collembola and other small arthropods. Adults have a protrusible labium with a sticky tip used in prey capture. To overcome the rapid escape of Collembola, the labium is protruded at high speed by hemolymph pressure, and immediately withdrawn, pulling the prey within the range of the mandibles. However, the labium tip does not easily stick to preys covered in scales or setae or that have a large body size. Stenus comma is more likely to catch such preys by lunging forward and grabbing them directly with its mandibles rather than using its labium. Stenus species are also known for "skimming" on the water surface using their pygidial gland secretions that act as a surfactant and rapidly propel the beetle fast forward, a phenomenon known as the Marangoni effect. Stenus comma has been seen to achieve a velocity of 0.75 m/s, and to cover a distance of up to 15 m if the secretion is continuous.
