Phaenops is a genus of metallic wood-boring beetles, or jewel beetles, in the family Buprestidae. There are more than 20 described species in Phaenops, found in North America and the Palearctic. [1] [2] [3]
These 27 species belong to the genus Phaenops:
Buprestis is a genus of beetles in the tribe Buprestini, the jewel beetles. As of 2011 there were 78 described species distributed across most of the world's biogeographic realms except parts of Africa and Antarctica.
Agrilus is a genus of jewel beetles, notable for having the largest number of species of any single genus in the animal kingdom.
Anthaxia is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae.
Coraebus is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, containing the following species:
Meliboeus is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, the jewel beetles. They are distributed throughout the Palearctic, Afrotropical, and Indomalayan realms. As of 2008, there were 227 species.
Paracylindromorphus is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, containing the following species:
Taphrocerus is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, the jewel beetles. As of 2014 there are 174 described species. All are native to the New World except a single species described from South Africa.
Tetragonoschema is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, the jewel beetles. There are 17 species in the genus, which is distributed throughout the Americas from Mexico to Patagonia.
Chalcophora is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, containing the following living species:
Sphenoptera is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, containing the following species:
Acmaeoderella is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, containing the following species:
Acmaeodera is a genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, a group of metallic wood-boring beetles favored by insect collectors. Whereas most beetles including most buprestids fly with their elytra held out and vibrating their hindwings to give lift and thrust, Acmaedodera, however, fly with their hind wings only — the elytra are fused down the center and form a shield over the insect's abdomen, even during flight. This fact, combined with the banding across the abdomen which is common in this family, gives many of them a distinct wasp-like appearance when in flight. Several are therefore considered hymenopteran mimics.
Dicerca tenebrica, the flatheaded wood borer or flatheaded poplar borer, is a brassy to black coloured beetle from Chrysochroinae subfamily which can be found in Canada and both Southern and Northeastern United States. The species was first described by William Kirby in 1837.
Agrilus cuprescens, known generally as the rose stem girdler or bronze cane borer, is a species of metallic wood-boring beetle in the family Buprestidae. It is found in Europe and Northern Asia and North America.
Magdalis is a genus of wedge-shaped bark weevils in the family Curculionidae. There are at least 20 described species in Magdalis.
Tyloderma is a genus of hidden snout weevils in the family Curculionidae. There are at least 30 described species in this genus.
Phyllobaenus is a genus of checkered beetles in the family Cleridae. There are at least 60 described species in Phyllobaenus.
Phaenops drummondi, the flatheaded fir borer, is a species of metallic wood-boring beetle in the family Buprestidae. It is found in North America.
Entomoscelis is a genus of leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. There are about 12 described species in Entomoscelis. The genus has a Holarctic distribution. Adults have red elytra with black markings.
