Harpalus semenowi is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. [1] It was described by Tschiterscherine in 1901. [1]
Harpalus is a young lunar impact crater that lies on the Mare Frigoris, at the eastern edge of the Sinus Roris. To the southeast at the edge of the mare is the small crater Foucault, and to the northwest on the opposite edge is the walled plain named South.
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 tardus is a black-coloured ground beetle in the Harpalinae subfamily that is common in Europe, Siberia, Central Asia and Northern Asia.
Hygrotus is a genus of beetle in family Dytiscidae. It contains two subgenera and about 70 species, including:
Harpalus is a genus of ground beetle first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1802.
Harpalus affinis is a species of ground beetle native to the Palearctic, and introduced in the Nearctic and the Australasian region. In Europe, it is only absent in the following countries or islands: the Azores, the Canary Islands, the Channel Islands, Crete, Cyclades, Dodecanese, the Faroe Islands, Franz Josef Land, Gibraltar, Iceland, Madeira, Malta, Monaco, the North Aegean islands, Novaya Zemlya, San Marino, the Savage Islands, Sicily, Svalbard and Jan Mayen, and Vatican City. Its presence on the Balearic Islands and Sardinia is doubtful.
Harpalus was an ancient Greek astronomer who corrected the cycle of Cleostratus and invented the Nine Year Cycle.
Strigopteroides is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, containing the following species:
Dicheirotrichus is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:
Eocarterus is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae. It contains eight species divided into two subgenera, Eocarterus and Baeticocarus.
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.
Cymindis semenowi is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. It was described by V. E. Jakovlev in 1890.
Harpalus latus is a ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae that can be found in Europe, Armenia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, and North Korea. Found in Ontario Canada
Harpalus eous is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. It was described by Tschiterscherine in 1901.
Harpalus pumilus is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Harpalinae. It was described by Sturm in 1818.
Caelostomus semenowi is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Pterostichinae. It was described by Tschitscherine in 1898.
Polistes semenowi is a species of paper wasp in the genus Polistes that is found in southeastern and southern central Europe, as well as central Asia, and was until 2017 erroneously known by the name Polistes sulcifer, while a different species was incorrectly believed to represent P. semenowi. It is one of only four known Polistes obligate social parasites, sometimes referred to as "cuckoo paper wasps", and its host is the congeneric species Polistes dominula. As an obligate social parasite, this species has lost the ability to build nests, and relies on the host workers to raise its brood. P. semenowi females use brute force, followed by chemical mimicry in order to successfully usurp a host nest and take over as the queen.
The name cuckoo paper wasp refers to a monophyletic species group of brood-parasitic paper wasps in the genus Polistes. This species group contains only four species; Polistes atrimandibularis, P. austroccidentalis, P. maroccanus, and P. semenowi, all of them obligate social parasites on other Polistes species.
Eocarterus semenowi is a species of ground beetle in the genus Eocarterus.
Harpalini is a tribe of a diverse group of ground beetles belonging to the subfamily Harpalinae within the broader family Carabidae. The tribe contains more than 1,900 species.
