Epelyx is a genus in the ground beetle family Carabidae. There are five described species in Epelyx, found in Australia. [1] [2] [3]
These five species belong to the genus Epelyx:
Ant spiders are members of the family Zodariidae. They are small to medium-sized eight-eyed spiders found in all tropical and subtropical regions of South America, Africa, Madagascar, Australia-New Guinea, New Zealand, Arabia and the Indian subcontinent. Most species are daytime hunters and live together with ants, mimicking their behavior and sometimes even their chemical traits. Although little is known about most zodariids, members of the genus Zodarion apparently feed only on ants; a number of other genera in the family are apparently also ant specialists.
Prodidomidae is a family of spider, sometimes called long-spinneret ground spiders. It was formerly regarded as a subfamily of Gnaphosidae, but was raised to a family in 2022.
Amblytelus is a genus of ground beetle including 44 species distributed through southern Australia, including the Southwest and along the east coast up to North Queensland.
Tama novaehollandiae or Tamopsis novaehollandiae are names used for an Australian spider species. However, the original type specimen has been lost, and it is not clear which, if any, of the many species of Tamopsis now recognized the name refers to, so it is treated as a nomen dubium. Tamopsis is placed in the family Hersiliidae.
Gigadema is a genus in the ground beetle family Carabidae. There are about 13 described species in Gigadema, found in Australia and New Guinea.
Sarothrocrepis is a genus in the beetle family Carabidae. There are more than 110 described species in Sarothrocrepis, found mainly in Australia, but also in Indonesia, New Guinea, Papua, and the Philippines.
Microlestodes is a genus in the beetle family Carabidae. There are about 16 described species in Microlestodes.
Aristolebia is a genus in the beetle family Carabidae. There are more than 20 described species in Aristolebia.
Gestroania is a genus in the ground beetle family Carabidae. There are at least four described species in Gestroania, found in Australia.
Scopodes is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae and is found in Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, New Caledonia, and Papua New Guinea.
Mecyclothorax is a genus of beetles that contains over 400 described species or subspecies, mostly from the Hawaiian Islands, and Tahiti and Moorea, French Polynesia. Additional radiations have evolved in Queensland, Australia, New Guinea and New Caledonia. The genus has been divided into five subgenera: Eucyclothorax Liebherr 2018 of Australia, Qecyclothorax Liebherr 2018 of Queensland, Australia, Meonochilus Liebherr & Marris, 2009 of New Zealand, Phacothorax Jeannel 1944 of New Caledonia, and the more widely distributed subgenus Mecyclothorax Sharp 1903 [in Australia, the Sundas, New Zealand, the Society Islands, and Hawaii]. The adelphotaxon to Mecyclothorax is hypothesized to consist of the genera associated with Amblytelus Blackburn, also distributed in Australia, and therefore the evolutionary history of Mecyclothorax commenced in Australia.
Notagonum is a genus in the beetle family Carabidae. There are more than 80 described species in Notagonum.
Cainogenion is a genus of carabids in the beetle family Carabidae. There are about 12 described species in Cainogenion, found in Australia.
Sphallomorpha is a genus in the beetle family Carabidae. There are at least 160 described species in Sphallomorpha, found mainly in Australia, but also in Indonesia and New Guinea.
Psydrinae is a subfamily of beetles in the family Carabidae.
Dystrichothorax is a genus in the beetle family Carabidae. There are more than 50 described species in Dystrichothorax, found in Australia.
Rhytisternus is a genus in the beetle family Carabidae. There are more than 20 described species in Rhytisternus.
Epilectus is a genus in the ground beetle family Carabidae. There are two described species in Epilectus, found in Australia.
Pericompsus is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are more than 70 described species in Pericompsus.
Tasmanitachoides is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae, endemic to Australia. The beetles are very small, typically 1.5 to 3.0 mm. in length, and live in coarse sand or fine gravel along freshwater shorelines throughout Australia.
