Psyllototus is an extinct genus of flea beetles described from the late Eocene Rovno amber of Ukraine, and from the Baltic amber of Russia and Denmark. It was named by Konstantin Nadein and Evgeny Perkovsky in 2010, and the type species is Psyllototus progenitor. In 2016, a newly described extant flea beetle genus from Bolivia, Chanealtica, was found to be most similar to Psyllototus, based on the characters available for observation.
Xanthonia is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed in North and Central America, and in East, Southeast and South Asia.
Aulacophora abdominalis is a species of leaf beetle in the genus Aulacophora.
Chalcolampra is a genus of leaf beetles. These beetles are widespread from Southeast Asia to Australia and New Zealand, but most common in the southeast of Australia. There are approximately 25 Australian species within this genus. There are also 13 species described from New Zealand, with up to an additional 20 undescribed species from the South Island.
The Spilopyrinae are a small subfamily of the leaf beetles, or Chrysomelidae. They occur in Australia, New Guinea, New Caledonia and Chile. They were formerly considered a tribe of the subfamily Eumolpinae. The group was elevated to subfamily rank by C. A. M. Reid in 2000. However, some authors have criticised this placement, preferring to retain them within the Eumolpinae.
Calligrapha is a genus of large American Chrysomelinae of imprecise taxonomic boundaries. Most species occur in Central and South America.
Eumolpini is a tribe of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is the largest tribe in the subfamily, with approximately 170 genera found worldwide. Members of the tribe almost always have a longitudinal median groove on the pygidium, which possibly helps to keep the elytra locked at rest. They also generally have a subglabrous body, as well as appendiculate pretarsal claws.
Mapinguari is a genus of mydas flies in the family Mydidae, found in Brazil. There are two described species in Mapinguari.
Demotina is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. There are over 50 described species in Demotina. The genus is native to Asia, Australia and Oceania, though one species is an adventive species in the southeastern United States in North America. Some species are known to be parthenogenetic.
Goniopleura is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is found in Southeast Asia. It is sometimes treated as a subgenus of Aulexis.
Proneuronema is an extinct genus of lacewing in the neuropteran family Hemerobiidae known from fossils found in North America and Baltic amber. The genus currently contains three species, the amber species P. gradatum and P. minor plus the Ypresian P. wehri of Washington state.
Tricholapita is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. The genus is endemic to New Caledonia.
Calomela bartoni is a beetle in the Chrysomelidae family, which is found in New South Wales and Victoria.
