Paleobuprestis is an ichnogenus of bioerosion trace fossils found in wood that are thought to have been produced by the larvae of beetles in the family Buprestidae. It was first described by American paleontologist and park naturalist Myrl V. Walker in 1938, based on channels found just under the bark of petrified logs from the Petrified Forest National Park in Arizona, dated to the Late Triassic epoch. He described two different species of these markings: Paleobuprestis maxima for channels with a diameter of about 10 mm, and Paleobuprestis minima for those with a diameter of only 2 mm. Paleobuprestis has since also been recorded from the Upper Jurassic Morrison Formation and the Upper Cretaceous Price River Formation. In 2013, a third ichnospecies, Paleobuprestis sudeticus, was described from the Viséan-aged Paprotnia Beds in the Polish Sudetes. In 2006, Charles L. Bellamy established a new genus-group name Archeobuprestis for P. maxima and P. minima, considering the name Paleobuprestis to be unavailable under the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature because it was described after 1930 without a type species designation in its original publication.
Cyrioides elateroides is a species of beetle in the family Buprestidae native to southwest Western Australia. It was described by the English entomologist Edward Saunders in 1872, the type specimen collected along the Swan River. Saunders noted it to be similar in coloration to the related C. vittigera but had its markings were patterned differently.
Synaphaeta is a monotypic beetle genus in the family Cerambycidae first described by Thomson in 1864. Its only species, Synaphaeta guexi, occurs in the Pacific states of North America, from British Columbia down to California. It has been reared from a variety of hardwood trees, including Pacific willow , white alder , coffeeberry , English walnut , and cherry . It was described by John Lawrence LeConte in 1852 based on a specimen from Benicia, California.
Edwin Cooper Van Dyke was an American physician and entomologist. A leading authority on beetles (Coleoptera) of the Pacific Coast of North America, he was also an expert on insect pests of forests and forest products. He became a professor of entomology at the University of California, Berkeley and worked on the curatorial staff at the California Academy of Sciences for almost fifty years.
