Harpalus rivalsi is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. [1] It was described by Jeannel in 1948. [1]
Harpalus, son of Machatas, was a Macedonian aristocrat and childhood friend of Alexander the Great in the 4th century BC. Harpalus was repeatedly entrusted with official duties by Alexander and absconded with large sums of money on three occasions. Alexander appointed him treasurer of his empire in Babylon in 330 BC. In 324 BC he fled from Babylon to Athens with a large sum of money. The resulting political controversy in Athens was a contributing factor in the Lamian War.
Harpalus is a genus of ground beetle first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1802.
Trechus is a genus of ground beetle native to the Palearctic and the Near East. There are more than 1,000 described species in Trechus.
Acupalpus is a genus of insect-eating beetle species. Its representatives are found across Europe, Asia, and North America.
Lebia is a genus of predatory ground beetles. Common names include colorful foliage ground beetles and flat ground beetles. They are found worldwide and there over 700 species in 17 subgenera.
Harpalinus is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:

Agonidium is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:
Catacolpodes is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:

Notocolpodes is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are more than 30 described species in Notocolpodes, found in Madagascar.
Pterostichinae is a subfamily of ground beetles. It belongs to the advanced harpaline assemblage, and if these are circumscribed sensu lato as a single subfamily, Pterostichinae are downranked to a tribe Pterostichini. However, as the former Pterostichitae supertribe of the Harpalinae as loosely circumscribed does seem to constitute a lineage rather distinct from Harpalus, its core group is here considered to be the present subfamily and the Harpalinae are defined more narrowly.
Caelostomus is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae. It contains the following species:

Eucamptognathus is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:
Aphaenops is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species: All species in the genus are obligate troglobites, and each species is usually endemic to a single cave system; they are unpigmented, and have no functional eyes.
Harpalus chalcopterus is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. It was described by Jeannel in 1948.
Anisochirus impressicollis is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. It was described by Jeannel in 1948.
