Eucallopistus is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, containing the following species: [1]
Buprestidae is a family of beetles known as jewel beetles or metallic wood-boring beetles because of their glossy iridescent colors. Larvae of this family are known as flatheaded borers. The family is among the largest of the beetles, with some 15,500 species known in 775 genera. In addition, almost 100 fossil species have been described.
Agrilinae is a subfamily of beetles in the family Buprestidae, containing the following genera:
Buprestinae is a subfamily of beetles in the family Buprestidae, containing the following genera in the tribes Anthaxiini, Buprestini, Chrysobothrini, Melanophilini, and Xenorhipidini:
Chrysochroinae is a subfamily of beetles in the family Buprestidae: the "jewel beetles".
Polycestinae is a subfamily of beetles in the family Buprestidae: known as "jewel beetles".

Steraspis is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, containing the following species:
Acmaeodera is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, a group of metallic wood-boring beetles favored by insect collectors. Whereas most beetles including most buprestids fly with their elytra held out and vibrating their hindwings to give lift and thrust, the Acmaedodera, however, fly with their hind wings only — the elytra are fused down the center and form a shield over the insect's abdomen, even during flight. This fact, combined with the banding across the abdomen which is common in this family, gives many of them a distinct wasp-like appearance when in flight. Several are therefore considered hymenopteran mimics.
Agrilini is a tribe of metallic wood-boring beetles in the family Buprestidae. There are at least 40 described genera in Agrilini.
