Zopheridae is a family of beetles belonging to Tenebrionoidea. It has grown considerably in recent years as the members of two other families have been included within its circumscription; these former families are the Monommatidae and the Colydiidae, which are now both included in the Zopheridae as subfamilies or even as tribe of subfamily Zopherinae. Some authors accept up to six subfamilies here, while others merge all except the Colydiinae into the Zopherinae.
Anobiinae is the subfamily of death-watch beetles in the family Ptinidae, with at least 45 genera. It was formerly considered a member of the family Anobiidae, but its family name has since been changed to Ptinidae.
Megatominae is a subfamily of the beetle family Dermestidae. This subfamily contains several of the most well-known household and stored-product pest beetles, in the genera Anthrenus and Trogoderma.
Monotomidae is a family of beetles in the superfamily Cucujoidea. The family is found worldwide, with approximately 240 species in 33 genera. The ecological habits of the family are diverse, with different members of the group being found under tree bark, in decaying vegetation, on flowers and in ant nests. Their ecology is obscure, while at least some species are mycophagous, feeding on the fruiting bodies of ascomycete fungi, Rhyzophagus are predators on bark beetles and possibly Phoridae larvae, with the larvae of some species also being mycophagous.
Tomoxia is a genus of beetles in the family Mordellidae, containing the following species:
Lamiini is a tribe of longhorn beetles of the subfamily Lamiinae.
Contacyphon is a genus of marsh beetles in the family Scirtidae. There are over 100 described species in Contacyphon, all of which were formerly treated under the deprecated name Cyphon, which was recognized as an objectively invalid name.
Prionocyphon is a genus of marsh beetles in the family Scirtidae. There are at least 20 described species in Prionocyphon.
Contacyphon pusillus is a species of marsh beetle in the family Scirtidae. It is found in North America from British Columbia east to Quebec and south to Florida. Contacyphon neopadi was synonymized with C. pusillus and all previously documented occurrences of C. padi in North America are now considered to be this species.
Elodes is a genus of marsh beetles in the family Scirtidae. There are more than 60 described species in Elodes.
Ora is a genus of flea marsh beetles in the family Scirtidae. There are about 17 described species in Ora.
