Macrocheilus dorsalis Klug, 1834 | |
Macrocheilus dorsalis is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Anthiinae. [1] It was described by Johann Christoph Friedrich Klug in 1834. [1]
Johann Christoph Friedrich Klug, was a German entomologist. He described the butterflies and some other insects of Upper Egypt and Arabia in Christian Gottfried Ehrenberg and Wilhelm Friedrich Hemprich's Symbolæ Physicæ. He was professor of medicine and entomology in the University of Berlin where he curated the insect collections from 1810 to 1856. At the same time he directed the Botanic Garden in Berlin which contains his collections. Klug worked mainly on Hymenoptera and Coleoptera. The plant genus Klugia was named in his honour as well as the butterflies Geitoneura klugii and Heliophisma klugii.

Epicauta is a genus of beetles in the blister beetle family, Meloidae. The genus was first scientifically described in 1834 by Pierre François Marie Auguste Dejean. Epicauta is distributed nearly worldwide, with species native to all continents except Australia and Antarctica. Surveys have found the genus to be particularly diverse in northern Arizona in the United States. Few species occur in the Arctic, with none farther north than the southern Northwest Territory of Canada.
Odonteus is a genus of beetles in the family Bolboceratidae, formerly known by the name Bolboceras. The name Bolboceras was replaced in 1990 when it was discovered that Odonteus had been published one month earlier; this finding was upheld by ICZN Opinion 2138 in 2006, which made the two names synonymous, with Odonteus having priority. Some researchers continue to use the invalid junior name (e.g.).
