Harpalus punctipennis is a species of ground beetle from Harpalinae subfamily that can be found in French and Italian [1] Alps. [2]
Pentatomidae is a family of insects belonging to the order Hemiptera, generally called shield bugs or stink bugs. Pentatomidae is the largest family in the superfamily Pentatomoidea, and contains around 900 genera and over 4700 species. As hemipterans, the pentatomids have piercing sucking mouthparts, and most are phytophagous, including several species which are severe pests on agricultural crops. However, some species, particularly in the subfamily Asopinae, are predatory and may be considered beneficial.
The insect family Nabidae contains the damsel bugs. There are over 500 species in 20 genera. They are soft-bodied, elongate, winged terrestrial predators. Many damsel bugs catch and hold prey with their forelegs, similar to mantids. They are considered helpful species in agriculture because of their predation on many types of crop pests.
Harpalus tardus is a black-coloured ground beetle in the Harpalinae subfamily that is common in Europe, Siberia, Central Asia and Northern Asia.
Harpalus is a genus of ground beetle first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1802.
Endomychidae, or handsome fungus beetles, is a family of beetles with representatives found in all biogeographic realms. There are around 120 genera and 1300 species. The family was established based on the type genus Endomychus, a genus erected in 1795 by Panzer which was applied to a species that Linnaeus called Chrysomela coccinea. As the common name suggests, Endomychidae feed on fungi. Crowson, in his influential treatment of the beetles, placed the family within the Cucujoidea. They have a tarsal formal of 4-4-4 or 3-3-3 and the wings lack a closed radial cell. The second antennal segment has a sensory appendage that is as long as the third antennal segment. The family has also been grouped with the Coccinellidae in a group called the Trimera for having pseudotrimerous tarsi. A 2015 molecular phylogeny study found that the Cucujoidea were found to be non-monophyletic and the Endomychidae was refined with the removal of the Anamorphinae from within the family and elevated to the status of a full family, Anamorphidae. Mycetaeinae and Eupsilobiinae were also found not to belong within the clades of the core Endomychidae, and likewise reclassified into the families Mycetaeidae and Eupsilobiidae.
Isogona is a genus of moths of the family Erebidae. The genus was erected by Achille Guenée in 1852.
Hydrochus is the only living genus of beetle in the family Hydrochidae, which belongs to the superfamily Hydrophiloidea. Hydrochus includes about 180 species, which are found worldwide. Hydrochus has also been used for a fly genus in the family Dolichopodidae. This junior homonym is a junior subjective synonym of the genus Rhaphium.
Claudius Rey was a French entomologist.
Exocentrus punctipennis is a species of longhorn beetles of the subfamily Lamiinae. It was described by Mulsant and Guillebeu in 1856, and is known from southern Europe and the Caucasus. The beetles inhabit elm trees. They measure 3.5–6 millimetres (0.14–0.24 in) long, and can live for approximately 1–2 years.
Sehirus is a genus of burrowing bugs or negro bugs belonging to the family Cydnidae, subfamily Sehirinae.
Mordellinae is a subfamily of beetles commonly known as tumbling flower beetles for the typical irregular movements they make when escaping predators, or as pintail beetles due to their abdominal tip which aids them in performing these tumbling movements.
Harpalus zabroides is a species of ground beetle native to Europe, where it can be found throughout Central Europe and in such countries as Baltic states, Benelux, Belarus, Italy, Spain, Ukraine, in all states of former Yugoslavia, and all parts of Russia. It is also found in such Asian countries as Armenia, Georgia, Iran, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Turkey.
Harpalus marginellus is a species of ground beetle that can be found in such countries as Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Poland, Slovakia, Switzerland, all states of former Yugoslavia, and southern part of Russia.
Harpalus flavescens is a ground beetle in the Harpalinae subfamily that is common in Europe, Siberia, Central Asia and Northern Asia. In Central Asia it can be found only in Kazakhstan.
Harpalus modestus is a species of black coloured ground beetle that can be found in such European countries as Andorra, Austria, Baltic states, Benelux, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Moldova, Poland, Slovakia, Switzerland, Ukraine, all states of former Yugoslavia, and central part of Russia. Its existence in Spain and on Alboran island is doubtful. It can also be found in Japan, North and South Korea, and Chinese provinces such as Heilongjiang, Liaoning, Qinghai, Shanxi, and Sichuan.
Saperdini is a tribe of longhorn beetles of the subfamily Lamiinae.
Phytoecia is a genus of longhorn beetles of the subfamily Lamiinae,
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.
Orsillus is a genus of Palaearctic bugs, in the family Lygaeidae; it is the type genus of the subfamily Orsillinae and tribe Orsillini. Species are recorded from Europe and includes O. depressus which has become naturalised in the British Isles.
