Oomorphus is a genus of leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. There are about 18 described species in Oomorphus. [1] [2] [3]
These 18 species belong to the genus Oomorphus:
The Fulcidacini, sometimes known as the warty leaf beetles, are a tribe within the leaf beetle subfamily Cryptocephalinae, though historically they were often treated as a distinct subfamily, Chlamisinae. 11 genera with altogether about 400 species are currently placed here; some four-fifths of the species are found in the Neotropics, but the rest is distributed over all other continents except Antarctica.
The Lamprosomatinae are a small subfamily of leaf beetles (Chrysomelidae). They belong to the case-bearing Camptosomata.
The Spilopyrinae are a small subfamily of the leaf beetles, or Chrysomelidae. They occur in Argentina, 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.
Saxinis is a genus of case-bearing leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. There are at least 10 described species in Saxinis.
Megalostomis is a genus of case-bearing leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. There are at least three described species in Megalostomis.
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.
Trirhabda is a genus of skeletonizing leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. There are more than 30 described species in Trirhabda. They are found in North America and Mexico.
Miraces is a genus of skeletonizing leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. There are six described species in Miraces. They are found in North America and the Neotropics.
Urodera is a genus of case-bearing leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. There are about nine described species in Urodera.
Coleorozena is a genus of case-bearing leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. The group is largely composed of species that were originally placed in the genus Coscinoptera; some authorities have suggested placing these species back into Coscinoptera but the most recent revisions prefer to retain it as a separate genus.
Lexiphanes is a genus of case-bearing leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. There are about 17 described species in Lexiphanes.
Megascelis is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is known from both North and South America. There are around 140 described species in Megascelis.
Chlamisus, sometimes known as the cloaked warty leaf beetles, is a genus of warty leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. There are more than 90 described species in Chlamisus.
Janbechynea is a genus of leaf beetles in the family Orsodacnidae. There are at least 12 described species in Janbechynea, found in North America. The genus is named after the Czech entomologist Jan Bechyně.
Scelida is a genus of skeletonizing leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. There are at least four described species in Scelida. They are found in North America and the Neotropics.
Ophraea is a genus of skeletonizing leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. There are about eight described species in Ophraea. They are found in North America and the Neotropics.
Typophorini is a tribe of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. The tribe contains approximately 100 genera, which are found worldwide. Members of the tribe are mainly characterized by notches on the tibiae of the middle and hind legs, which are sometimes referred to as antenna cleaners. They also generally have a subglabrous body, as well as bifid pretarsal claws.
Malacorhinus is a genus of skeletonizing leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. There are about 30 described species in Malacorhinus. They are found in North America and the Neotropics.
Abirus is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed from the Malay Archipelago to the Indian subcontinent, China, and the Ryukyu Islands. The genus was first established by the Belgian entomologist Félicien Chapuis in 1874, as a split of Dermorhytis.
Bromiini is a tribe of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. The tribe contains approximately 120 genera, which are found worldwide. They are generally thought to be an artificial group, often with a subcylindrical prothorax without lateral ridges and covered with setae or scales.
