Panagaeus is a genus in the beetle family Carabidae, native to the Holarctic (including Europe), the Near East, and North Africa, as well as Central and South America. There are about 15 described species in Panagaeus. [1] [2] [3]
These 15 species belong to the genus Panagaeus:
Asterias is a genus of the Asteriidae family of sea stars. It includes several of the best-known species of sea stars, including the (Atlantic) common starfish, Asterias rubens, and the northern Pacific seastar, Asterias amurensis. The genus contains a total of eight species in all. All species have five arms and are native to shallow oceanic areas of cold to temperate parts of the Holarctic. These starfish have planktonic larvae. Asterias amurensis is an invasive species in Australia and can in some years become a pest in the Japanese mariculture industry.
Xysticus is a genus of ground crab spiders described by C. L. Koch in 1835, belonging to the order Araneae, family Thomisidae. The genus name is derived from the Ancient Greek root xyst, meaning "scraped, scraper".
Dorcus is a genus of beetles in the family Lucanidae. Of the 30-odd species, most occur in Asia and India; two are found in southern Europe, and two species are from North America. Previously, specimens with serriform teeth on the mandibles and sable pigment were called Serrognathus whereas specimens with but a singular or multiple bulky notches on the mandibles and lustrous sable pigmentation were called Dorcus.
Carabus is a genus of beetles in family Carabidae. The genus is highly diverse with 94 subgenera, 959 species and 2300 subspecies, thus is the largest genus in the subfamily Carabinae. The vast majority are native to the Palearctic, but 16 Nearctic species are also known. Carabus spp. are 12–50 mm (0.47–1.97 in) long, and most species are wingless and often very colourful. These are nocturnal, predatory beetles that feed on snails, earthworms, and caterpillars. Most Carabus species were thought to have inhabited the Eurasian forest, but the species' low dispersal abilities altered the distribution of lineages within the genus.
Loricera is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae, the sole genus of the subfamily Loricerinae. There are about 17 described species in Loricera.
Notiophilus is a genus of ground beetle native to the Palearctic, the Nearctic, the Near East and North Africa. Most known for their distictive head shape and size-body ratio the genus is sometimes referred to as the springtail stalkers.
Omophron is a genus of ground beetle (Carabidae), the only extant genus in the subfamily Omophroninae. It is mostly distributed in the Northern Hemisphere with the southern border running through Guatemala and Hispaniola in Americas, South Africa and Madagascar in Africa, Malaysia and Philippines in Asia.
Anisodactylus is a genus of ground beetle native to the Palearctic, the Near East and North Africa. It contains the following species:
Oodes is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae, found worldwide.
Patrobus is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are more than 20 described species in Patrobus.
Coptodera is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, constituted of 105 species distributed across North and South America, Africa, Oceania and eastern Asia.
Euschizomerus is a genus in the beetle family Carabidae. There are about 15 described species in Euschizomerus.
Platynus is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are more than 180 described species in Platynus.

Pogonistes is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are about eight described species in Pogonistes.
Pogonus is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae, found worldwide. There are more than 50 described species in Pogonus.
Trechoblemus is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae
Panagaeus japonicus is a species of ground beetle in the Panagaeinae subfamily that can be found in Japan, North Korea and Maritime province of Russia. It is also known from various provinces of China such as Heilongjiang, Hubei, Jilin, and Shanxi. The species is black coloured with red spots on its wings.
Pinacodera is a genus in the beetle family Carabidae. There are more than 20 described species in Pinacodera, found in North, Central, and South America.
