Passandra is a genus of beetles in the family Passandridae. [1]
The Zopheridae family of beetles has grown considerably in recent years as the members of two other families have been included within its circumscription; these former families are the Monommatidae and the Colydiidae, which are now both included in the Zopheridae as subfamilies or even as tribe of subfamily Zopherinae. Some authors accept up to six subfamilies here, while others merge all except the Colydiinae into the Zopherinae.
Colydiinae is a subfamily of beetles, commonly known as cylindrical bark beetles. They have been treated historically as a family Colydiidae, but have been moved into the Zopheridae, where they constitute the bulk of the diversity of the newly expanded family, with about 140 genera worldwide. They are diverse for example in the Australian region, from where about 35 genera are known; in Europe, though, only 20 genera are found and many of these only with few species.
The Lycidae are a family in the beetle order Coleoptera, members of which are commonly called net-winged beetles. These beetles are cosmopolitan, being found in Nearctic, Palearctic, Neotropical, Afrotropical, Oriental, and Australian ecoregions.
Silvanidae, "silvan flat bark beetles", is a family of beetles in the superfamily Cucujoidea, consisting of 68 described genera and about 500 described species. The family is represented on all continents except Antarctica, and is most diverse at both the generic and species levels in the Old World tropics.
Mordella is the type genus of the tumbling flower beetle family (Mordellidae), its subfamily Mordellinae and the tribe Mordellini. It is widely distributed in the Holarctic and adjacent regions. The larvae are primarily dead wood borers.
Rhyzodiastes is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:
Uleiota is a genus of beetles in the family Silvanidae, containing the following species:
Psammoecus is a genus of beetles in the family Silvanidae, containing the following species:
Passandridae, the "parasitic flat bark beetles," are a family of beetles notable for being one of the very few beetle families with larvae that are, as far as known, exclusively ectoparasitic on the immature stages of other beetles and Hymenoptera.
Ancistria is a genus of beetles in the family Passandridae.
Catogenus is a genus of beetles in the family Passandridae.
Passandrella is a genus of beetles in the family Passandridae.
Taphroscelidia is a genus of beetles in the family Passandridae.
Ceroplesis is a genus of flat-faced longhorn beetle in the subfamily Lamiinae of the family Cerambycidae.
Pediacus is the largest genus in the family Cucujidae of flat bark beetles. It contains 31 currently recognized species. Pediacus adults are relatively small (2.7-7.0mm), flattened brownish beetles with no or very small temples, and short antennae with a distinct club. Male genitalia are inverted and possess a short flagellum.
Zonitis is a genus of blister beetles in the family Meloidae. The genus was named and described by Johan Christian Fabricius in 1775.
Lycinae is a subfamily of net-winged beetles in the family Lycidae.
Pycnomerus is a genus of ironclad beetles in the family Zopheridae. There are more than 20 described species in Pycnomerus.
Synchita is a genus of cylindrical bark beetles in the family Zopheridae. There are about 20 described species in Synchita. The genus was first described in 1792 by Johann Christian Ludwig Hellwig.
Prostomis is a genus of beetles in the family Prostomidae.
