Colaspoides is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is one of the largest genera in the subfamily, containing over 260 species worldwide. It is an extant genus but there is at least one species, C. eocenicus, found in Baltic amber from the Upper Eocene of Russia, and the genus has also been reported from the Miocene of the Dominican Republic.
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.
Demotina is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. There are over 50 described species in Demotina. The genus is native to Asia, Australia and Oceania, though one species is an adventive species in the southeastern United States in North America. Some species are known to be parthenogenetic.
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.
Rhyparida is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed in the Australasian and Indomalayan realms, though some species are also known from the African islands of Madagascar and Seychelles.
Tricliona is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It contains at least 35 species, and is distributed from India and Southern China to the Philippines and New Guinea.
Pagria is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is known from Africa, Asia and Australia.
Basilepta is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is generally distributed in Asia. A single species is also known from central Africa.
Rhyparidella is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed in New Guinea and New Britain.
Cleorina is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is known from Australia and Asia.
Stethotes is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed in Southeast Asia and the Western Pacific.
Aulexis is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed in East and Southeast Asia. The related genus Goniopleura is sometimes included as a subgenus.
Aoria is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. Members of the genus are distributed in East and Southeast Asia. Food plants are known for only a few species, all of which were recorded from Vitaceae.
Scelodonta is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. The genus includes over 70 species, mainly from the Afrotropical, Palearctic and Oriental biogeographic realms. Only three species are found in Australia.
Nodina is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed in Asia.
Aulacia is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed in Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines.
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.
