Mecyclothorax cordicollis is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Psydrinae. [1] [2] It was first described by Thomas Gibson Sloane in 1900, [2] as Cyclothorax cordicollis. [1] [3] It is found in Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria. [1]

Mecyclothorax is a genus of beetles that contains over 400 described species or subspecies, mostly from the Hawaiian Islands, and Tahiti and Moorea, French Polynesia. Additional radiations have evolved in Queensland, Australia, New Guinea and New Caledonia. The genus has been divided into five subgenera: Eucyclothorax Liebherr 2018 of Australia, Qecyclothorax Liebherr 2018 of Queensland, Australia, Meonochilus Liebherr & Marris, 2009 of New Zealand, Phacothorax Jeannel 1944 of New Caledonia, and the more widely distributed subgenus Mecyclothorax Sharp 1903 [in Australia, the Sundas, New Zealand, the Society Islands, and Hawaii]. The adelphotaxon to Mecyclothorax is hypothesized to consist of the genera associated with Amblytelus Blackburn, also distributed in Australia, and therefore the evolutionary history of Mecyclothorax commenced in Australia.
Psydrinae is a subfamily of beetles in the family Carabidae.

Mecyclothorax ovalis is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Psydrinae. It was described by Sloane in 1915.
Mecyclothorax blackburni is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Psydrinae. It was described by Sloane in 1898.
Mecyclothorax rotundicollis is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Psydrinae. It is endemic to New Zealand. It was described by White in 1846.

Abacetus cordicollis is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Pterostichinae. It was described by Chaudoir in 1869.
Promecoderus is a genus of ground beetle in the subfamily Broscinae. The genus was described by Pierre François Marie Auguste Dejean in 1829 with the genus being found in Australia and is divided into six groups with several subgroups:
Bembidarenini is a tribe of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are 4 genera and more than 30 described species in Bembidarenini. Three of the genera are found in South America and one in Australia.
Zolini is a tribe of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are 11 genera and more than 60 described species in Zolini. All but one of the genera are found in Australia and New Zealand. The genus Merizodus occurs in South America.
