Amphizoa is a genus of aquatic beetles in the suborder Adephaga, placed in its own monogeneric family, Amphizoidae. There are five known species of Amphizoa, three in western North America and two in the eastern Palearctic. They are sometimes referred to by the common name troutstream beetles.
Trogidae, sometimes called hide beetles, is a family of beetles with a distinctive warty or bumpy appearance. Found worldwide, the family includes about 300 species contained in four or five genera.
Dermestidae are a family of Coleoptera that are commonly referred to as skin beetles. Other common names include larder beetle, hide or leather beetles, carpet beetles, and khapra beetles. There are over 1,100 species described.
Dermestes maculatus is a species of beetle with a worldwide distribution, being present on all continents except Antarctica. In Europe, it is present in all countries.
Acilius sulcatus is a species of water beetle in family Dytiscidae.It is fairly large, with color variation shown throughout its range. Typically it is yellow and black.
Hemilissa is a genus of beetles in the family Cerambycidae, containing the following species:
Gelae is a genus of round fungus beetles belonging to the family Leiodidae. The beetles are found in different parts of Central and North America. They are small and rounded, feeding on slime moulds. They were originally placed in the genus Agathidium following the discovery of the first species, G. cognatum, in 1878. The taxonomic position was revised with description of new species in 2004 by American entomologists Kelly B. Miller and Quentin D. Wheeler. Upon creation of the new genus, the five new species are Gelae baen, G. belae, G. donut, G. fish, and G. rol.
Esthlogena is a genus of longhorn beetles of the subfamily Lamiinae.
Acroperus tupinamba is a species of crustaceans. Its name refers to the largest tribe of indigenous peoples inhabiting Brazil before European colonization. It was first found among decomposing leaves in Planaltina, Distrito Federal, Brazil. It is a small Acroperus, the length of the female at or below 0.6mm. Its body is egg-shaped, with its maximum height in its body's second quarter. Its dorsal margin is quite arched, with its posteroventral angle denticles being very small. It carries about 35 to 40 ventral setae, with its posterior setae being longer than in cogenerate species. Its head has a low keel, the distance between its eye and the margin of its keel being equal to its eye diameter, which measures 1.5–2 times more than the ocellus. The species' head, antennule and labrum is the same as for the genus. The postabdomen narrows distally, the length of which is about 3.2 its height. Setules near the base of its postabdominal claws are short. Its antenna comprises less than 1/5 of its body length. All of its apical setae are of the same thickness and length. A. tupinamba differs from the other known species of its genus: A. harpae and A. Angustatus, by its smaller size; long posterior setae of the valves; a shorter, wider postabdomen; short setules near the base of its postabdominal claw; and the characteristic morphology of its fourth exopodite's setae 5–6, which is similar to those of Nicsmirnovius.
Estoloides flavoscutellaris is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Galileo, Bezark and Santos-Silva in 2016.
Gerontoformica is an extinct genus of stem-group ants. The genus contains thirteen described species known from Late Cretaceous fossils found in Asia and Europe. The species were described between 2004 and 2016, with a number of the species formerly being placed into the junior synonym genus Sphecomyrmodes.
Muisca bitaeniata is the accepted type species of checkered beetles of the genus Muisca in the subfamily of Clerinae or Enopliinae. It was first described by entomologist Maximilian Spinola in 1844.
Colilodion schulzi is a species of beetles belonging to the family Staphylinidae. This small, robust, reddish-brown rove beetle is known from a single specimen, a 2.37 millimetres (0.093 in) long female. It resembles the species C. concinnus and C. inopinatus with its enlarged antennomeres III, but it is easily distinguished by the greater maximum width and less variable width of these appendages, and by other morphological characteristics. Although its ecology is unknown, the presence of trichomes and the knowledge of related species, such as Staphylinidae suggests that this insect is myrmecophilous. The holotype was collected in 2009 in Palawan (Philippines) while sifting plant debris in a coniferous forest. The species was described in 2016 by the coleopterists Zi-Wei Yin from Shanghai Normal University and Giulio Cuccodoro from the Natural History Museum of Geneva, where the type specimen is part of the collection. The taxon's specific denomination is dedicated to the German myrmecologist Andreas Schulz, collector of the specimen.
