Postelichus is a genus of long-toed water beetles in the family Dryopidae. There are seven described species in Postelichus. [1] [2] [3] [4]
These seven species belong to the genus Postelichus:
Byrrhoidea is a superfamily of beetles belonging to Elateriformia that includes several families which are either aquatic or associated with a semi-aquatic habitat. Other than the superfamily Hydrophiloidea, most of the remaining Polyphagan beetles which are aquatic are in this superfamily.
Beetles of the genus Helichus are found worldwide apart from in Australia and Antarctica. Adults reach 1–8 millimetres (0.04–0.31 in) long and live in aquatic or riparian environments. The larvae are land-dwelling which may be unique in water living insects.
Dryopidae is a family of beetles, commonly named long-toed water beetles, in the superfamily Byrrhoidea. It was described by Gustaf Johan Billberg in 1820.
Elminae is a subfamily of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are at least 120 genera and more than 1,300 described species in Elminae.
Elmini is a tribe of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are more than 90 genera and 1,200 described species in North America.
Derodontus is a genus of tooth-necked fungus beetles in the family Derodontidae. There are about eleven described species in Derodontus.
Acmaeodera alpina is a species of metallic wood-boring beetle in the family Buprestidae. It is found in North America, specifically in the western United States. Its adult host is Leptodactylon pungens. This species is more often collected and found on granite and bare soil than on flowers.
Bryelmis is a genus of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are at least three described species in Bryelmis.
Ectopria is a genus of water penny beetles in the family Psephenidae. There are about nine described species in Ectopria.
Neoelmis is a genus of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are more than 50 described species in Neoelmis.
Stenelmis lignicola is a species of riffle beetle in the family Elmidae. It is found in North America.
Cymatoderella collaris is a species of checkered beetle in the family Cleridae. It is found in Central America and North America.
Cymatoderella is a genus of checkered beetles in the family Cleridae. There are at least three described species in Cymatoderella.
Neocylloepus is a genus of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are about eight described species in Neocylloepus.
Pelonomus is a genus of long-toed water beetles in the family Dryopidae. There are about five described species in Pelonomus.
Acmaeodera acuta is a species of metallic wood-boring beetle in the family Buprestidae. It is found in the western United States and Mexico. Its larval host is likely Salix and adults hosts include Achillea, Encelia, Rosa, Salix, and Sphaeralcea. The species is fairly restricted to riparian habitats.
Huleechius is a genus of riffle beetles in the family Elmidae. There are at least two described species in Huleechius.
Postelichus immsi is a species of long-toed water beetle in the family Dryopidae. It is found in North America.
Dryops viennensis is a species of long-toed water beetle in the family Dryopidae. It is found in Europe and Northern Asia and North America.
Hadromychus is a genus of handsome fungus beetles in the family Endomychidae. The genus contains one described species, Hadromychus chandleri.
