Porocara is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are about five described species in Porocara, found in Australia. [1] [2]
These five species belong to the genus Porocara:
Amblytelus is a genus of ground beetle including 47 species distributed through southern Australia, including the Southwest and along the east coast up to North Queensland. It contains the following species:
Anthiinae is a subfamily of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following genera:
Sarothrocrepis is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae.
Anomotarus is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:
Demetrida is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:
Minuthodes is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:
Dicraspeda is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:
Eudalia is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the following species:
Pentagonica is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are more than 170 described species in Pentagonica.
Calyptogonia is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are at least two described species in Calyptogonia.
Stichonotus is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are at least four described species in Stichonotus.
Mecyclothorax is a genus of beetles that contains over 400 described species or subspecies, mostly from the Hawaiian Islands, and Tahiti and Moorea, French Polynesia. Additional radiations have evolved in Queensland, Australia, New Guinea and New Caledonia. The genus has been divided into five subgenera: Eucyclothorax Liebherr 2018 of Australia, Qecyclothorax Liebherr 2018 of Queensland, Australia, Meonochilus Liebherr & Marris, 2009 of New Zealand, Phacothorax Jeannel 1944 of New Caledonia, and the more widely distributed subgenus Mecyclothorax Sharp 1903 [in Australia, the Sundas, New Zealand, the Society Islands, and Hawaii]. The adelphotaxon to Mecyclothorax is hypothesized to consist of the genera associated with Amblytelus Blackburn, also distributed in Australia, and therefore the evolutionary history of Mecyclothorax commenced in Australia.
Pseudomorpha is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, found in North, Central, and South America.
Psydrinae is a subfamily of beetles in the family Carabidae.
Scaritinae is a large subfamily of beetles in the family Carabidae, containing more than 2400 species in over 140 genera. They are found worldwide.
Tachyta is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are more than 30 described species in Tachyta.
Pogonus is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae, found worldwide. There are more than 50 described species in Pogonus.
Tasmanitachoides is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae, endemic to Australia. The beetles are very small, typically 1.5 to 3.0 mm. in length, and live in coarse sand or fine gravel along freshwater shorelines throughout Australia.
Odacanthini is a tribe of ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are more than 40 genera and 680 described species in Odacanthini.
