Paranchus is a genus of ground beetle native to Europe, the Near East, the Nearctic and North Africa. The species of this genus are either black or brown coloured. [1]
These four species belong to the genus Paranchus: [2] [1]
The yellow-fronted canary is a small passerine bird in the finch family. It is sometimes known in aviculture as the green singing finch.
Dracaena draco, the Canary Islands dragon tree or drago, is a subtropical tree in the genus Dracaena, native to the Canary Islands, Cape Verde, Madeira, western Morocco, and is thought to be introduced in the Azores. Its closest living relative is the dragon blood tree of Socotra, Dracaena cinnabari.
Thomas Vernon Wollaston was a prominent English entomologist and malacologist, becoming especially known for his studies of Coleoptera inhabiting several North Atlantic archipelagoes. He was well-placed socially. His religious beliefs effectively prevented him from supporting Charles Darwin's theories after 1859, but Darwin remained a close friend. Wollaston supported the theory that continental lands had once extended outward farther to encompass some of the island groups he studied.
The yellow canary is a small passerine bird in the finch family. It is a resident breeder in much of the western and central regions of southern Africa and has been introduced to Ascension and St Helena islands.
Hemicycla is a genus of medium-sized air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropods in the family Helicidae, the typical snails.
Napaeus is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Eninae of the family Enidae.
Gomerina is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are at least two described species in Gomerina, found in the Canary Islands.
Paraeutrichopus is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are at least two described species in Paraeutrichopus, found in the Canary Islands.
Calathidius is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are at least three described species in Calathidius, found in the Canary Islands.
Licinopsis is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are about six described species in Licinopsis, found in the Canary Islands.
Calathus abaxoides is a species of ground beetle from the Platyninae subfamily that is endemic to the Canary Islands.
Platynaspis is a genus of beetle of the family Coccinellidae.
Macrocoma divisa is a species of leaf beetle endemic to the Canary Islands. It was first described by Thomas Vernon Wollaston in 1864 as a species of Pseudocolaspis. It has been reported from Lanzarote, Fuerteventura and Graciosa.
Macrocoma dubia is a species of leaf beetle endemic to the Canary Islands. It was first described by Thomas Vernon Wollaston in 1864 as a species of Pseudocolaspis. It has been reported from Fuerteventura and Lanzarote.
Macrocoma obscuripes is a species of leaf beetle endemic to the Canary Islands. It was first described by Thomas Vernon Wollaston in 1862 as a species of Pseudocolaspis. It is found on Gran Canaria.
Macrocoma is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It contains about 100 species, which are found in tropical Africa, around the Mediterranean, on the Canary Islands, in western and central Asia, and in India.
Acanthiophilus walkeri is a species of tephritid or fruit flies in the genus Acanthiophilus of the family Tephritidae.
Campiglossa reticulata is a species of tephritid or fruit flies in the genus Campiglossa of the family Tephritidae.
Trox confluens is a species of hide beetle in the subfamily Troginae. Within the genus Trox, it is placed in the subgenus Granulitrox. Though this species is disputed, with some taxonomists arguing T. confluens is merely a duplicate of Trox granulipennis, the general consensus is that T. confluens and T. granulipennis are distinct. This beetle lives in Algeria, the Canary Islands, Libya, Morocco, and Tunisia.
