Elmini is a tribe of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are more than 90 genera and 1,200 described species in North America. [1] [2] [3]
These 96 genera belong to the tribe Elmini: [1]
Silvanidae, "silvan flat bark beetles", is a family of beetles in the superfamily Cucujoidea, consisting of 68 described genera and about 500 described species. The family is represented on all continents except Antarctica, and is most diverse at both the generic and species levels in the Old World tropics.
Dryopidae is a family of beetles, commonly named long-toed water beetles, in the superfamily Byrrhoidea. It was described by Gustaf Johan Billberg in 1820.
The Aleocharinae are one of the largest subfamilies of rove beetles, containing over 12,000 species. Previously subject to large-scale debate whether the subfamily deserved the familial status, it is now considered one of the largest subfamilies of rove beetles.
Elminae is a subfamily of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are at least 120 genera and more than 1,300 described species in Elminae.
Aphodiini is a tribe of aphodiine dung beetles in the family Scarabaeidae. There are more than 250 genera and 2,200 described species in Aphodiini.
Limnichidae, commonly called minute marsh-loving beetles, is a family of beetles belonging to Byrrhoidea. There are at least 30 genera and 350 described species in Limnichidae. They are found worldwide, with the greatest diversity in tropical regions. Most species seem to be associated with water-adjacent habitats, such as riparian and coastal locations, though many species are likely fully terrestrial, with some species being associated with leaf litter and arboreal habitats. Species with known diets feed on moss or algae. The oldest fossils of the family are known from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber from Myanmar.
Ptilodactylidae is a family of beetles belonging to the Elateriformia. There around 500 extant species in 35 genera. They are generally associated with riparian and aquatic habitats. The larvae generally live associated with rotting wood or vegetation, or within gravel and detritus on the edge of water bodies. The larvae of some species feed on submerged rotting wood or on plant roots, while the adults of some species are known to feed on fungus with modified brush-like maxillae.
Hexacylloepus is a genus of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are about 19 described species in Hexacylloepus.
Neoelmis is a genus of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are more than 50 described species in Neoelmis.
Phanocerus is a genus of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are about seven described species in Phanocerus.
Ordobrevia is a genus of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are about 11 described species in Ordobrevia.
Grouvellinus is a genus of beetle in the family Elmidae. As of 2018, over forty species are recognized, including:
Macronychus is a genus of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are about 11 described species in Macronychus.
Larainae is a subfamily of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are more than 20 genera and 160 described species in Larainae.
Macronychini is a tribe of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are more than 20 genera and 80 described species in Macronychini.
Dendarini is a tribe of darkling beetles in the family Tenebrionidae. There are more than 30 genera in Dendarini.
Platynotini is a tribe of darkling beetles in the family Tenebrionidae. There are more than 70 genera in Platynotini.
