Pterostichus niger is a species of woodland ground beetle in the family Carabidae, found in the Palearctic. [1] [2] [3]
These two subspecies belong to the species Pterostichus niger:
The lion is a large cat of the genus Panthera, native to Africa and India. It has a muscular, broad-chested body; a short, rounded head; round ears; and a dark, hairy tuft at the tip of its tail. It is sexually dimorphic; adult male lions are larger than females and have a prominent mane. It is a social species, forming groups called prides. A lion's pride consists of a few adult males, related females, and cubs. Groups of female lions usually hunt together, preying mostly on medium-sized and large ungulates. The lion is an apex and keystone predator; although some lions scavenge when opportunities occur and have been known to hunt humans, lions typically do not actively seek out and prey on humans.
The fox squirrel, also known as the eastern fox squirrel or Bryant's fox squirrel, is the largest species of tree squirrel native to North America. Despite the differences in size and coloration, it is sometimes mistaken for American red squirrels or eastern gray squirrels in areas where the species co-exist.
The Marco Polo sheep is a subspecies of argali sheep, named after Marco Polo. Their habitat are the mountainous regions of Central Asia. Marco Polo sheep are distinguishable mostly by their large size and spiraling horns. Their conservation status is "near threatened" and efforts have been made to protect their numbers and keep them from being hunted. It has also been suggested that crossing them with domestic sheep could have agricultural benefits.
Pterostichus is a very large genus of ground beetles with a Holarctic distribution in the subfamily Harpalinae. It has over 1,200 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.
George Beals Schaller is an American mammalogist, biologist, conservationist and author. Schaller is recognized by many as the world's preeminent field biologist, studying wildlife throughout Africa, Asia and South America. Born in Berlin, Schaller grew up in Germany, but moved to Missouri as a teen. He is vice president of Panthera Corporation and serves as chairman of their Cat Advisory Council. Schaller is also a senior conservationist at the Bronx Zoo-based Wildlife Conservation Society.
Pterostichus nicaeensis is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Pterostichinae.
Phytoecia icterica is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Schaller in 1783, originally under the genus Saperda. It has a wide distribution between Europe and the Middle East. It feeds on Daucus carota sativus, Petroselinum crispum, Pastinaca sativa sativa, Pastinaca sativa, Conium maculatum, and Pimpinella saxifraga.
Pterostichus madidus, commonly known as the black clock beetle, is a species of ground beetle native to Europe. The black clock beetle typically grows between 14–20mm in length, and is black in colouration, with legs that are usually red, reddish brown, or black. It can be found most abundantly in summer, and breeds during the autumn. It is commonly found in gardens, grasslands, and dry woodland, under stones, in grass, or in loose bark.
Pterostichus anthracinus is a species of woodland ground beetle in the family Carabidae, native to Europe.
Pterostichus minor is a species of woodland ground beetle native to Europe.
Sphodrus leucophthalmus is a species of ground beetle native to Europe. Západopalearktický,stenotermní druh Tribu Sphodrini,žijící prvotně v hnízdech větších savců;např.jezevec,liška,.druhotně ve starých sklepích,stájích,komorách a jiných vlhkých prostorách s hliněnou podlahou.Jako potravu upřednostňuje brouky z čeledi tenebrionidae ,a jejich larvy.Velikost dosti kolísá,od 23 do 40 mm.Tento druh byl v minulosti celkem obvyklý,avšak rapidním úbytkem jeho druhotných biotopů,a skrytým způsobem života v prvotních hnízdech savců,se stal velmi vzácným,až téměř vymírajícím elementem.Imaga ponejvíce na podzim,/září ,říjen/.Vzhledem ke skrytému způsobu života je záměna možná s druhy rodu Laemostenus/Pristonychus/, případně s Dolichus halensis/,carabidae:Platynini/,nebo s Pterostichus niger/carabidae:Pterostichini/. Western palearctic, stenothermal species of the tribe Sphodrini, living primarily in the nests of larger mammals; e.g. badger, fox, secondarily in old cellars, stables, chambers and other damp spaces with a clay floor. As food, it prefers beetles from the tenebrionidae family and their larvae. Size it fluctuates a lot, from 23 to 40 mm. This species was quite common in the past, but due to the rapid decline of its secondary habitats and the hidden way of life in the primitive nests of mammals, it has become a very rare, almost extinct element. Imaga mostly in autumn/September ,October/.Due to the hidden way of life, confusion is possible with species of the genus Laemostenus/Pristonychus/, possibly with Dolichus halensis/,carabidae:Platynini/, or with Pterostichus niger/carabidae:Pterostichini
Pterostichus brevicornis is a species of woodland ground beetle in the family Carabidae. It is found in Europe and Northern Asia and North America.
