<i>Carabus</i> Genus of beetles

Carabus is a genus of beetles in family Carabidae. The genus is highly diverse with 91 subgenera and more than 1000 recognised species, thus is the largest genus in the subfamily Carabinae. The vast majority are native to the Palearctic, but 11 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.

<i>Pterostichus</i> Genus of beetles

Pterostichus is a very large genus of ground beetles with a Holarctic distribution in the subfamily Harpalinae. It has over 1,100 species. The beetles are predatory, but sometimes feed on strawberries. They can be found under rocks and prefer slightly moist, sandy soil although preferences differ between species. Pterostichus contains the following species:

<i>Brachinus</i> genus of insects

Brachinus is a genus of ground beetle native to the Nearctic, Palearctic, the Near East and North Africa. Beetles in this genus are commonly referred to as bombardier beetles. The genus contains the following species:

<i>Cymindis</i> Genus of beetles

Cymindis is a genus of ground beetle native to the Palearctic, the Near East, and North Africa. It contains the following species:

<i>Ophonus</i> genus of insects

Ophonus is a ground beetle genus native to the Palearctic, the Near East, the Nearctic and North Africa. It contains the following species:

<i>Poecilus</i> Genus of beetles

Poecilus is a genus of ground beetle native to the Afro-tropical region, the Palearctic, the Near East, and North Africa.

<i>Stenolophus</i> genus of insects

Stenolophus is a genus of ground beetle native to the Palearctic, the Nearctic, the Near East, and North Africa. It contains the following species:

<i>Acupalpus</i> Genus of beetles

Acupalpus is a genus of insect-eating beetle species. Its representatives are found across Europe, Asia, and North America.

<i>Lebia</i> Genus of beetles

Lebia is a genus of predatory ground beetles. Common names include colorful foliage ground beetles and flat ground beetles. They are found worldwide and there over 700 species in 17 subgenera.

Lebiinae Subfamily of beetles

Lebiinae is a subfamily of beetles in the family Carabidae.

Platyninae Subfamily of beetles

Platyninae is a subfamily of ground beetles. Occasionally it was treated as a tribe Platynini of subfamily Harpalinae, particularly when this was circumscribed loosely.

Pterostichinae Subfamily of beetles

Pterostichinae is a subfamily of ground beetles. It belongs to the advanced harpaline assemblage, and if these are circumscribed sensu lato as a single subfamily, Pterostichinae are downranked to a tribe Pterostichini. However, as the former Pterostichitae supertribe of the Harpalinae as loosely circumscribed does seem to constitute a lineage rather distinct from Harpalus, its core group is here considered to be the present subfamily and the Harpalinae are defined more narrowly.

Tapinopterus is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:

Scaritinae is a subfamily of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following genera:

Trechinae Subfamily of beetles

Trechinae is a subfamily in the ground beetle family, Carabidae.
