Xerodermus is a genus of weevils in the beetle subfamily Dryophthorinae. There are at least four described species in Xerodermus. [1] [2]
These four species belong to the genus Xerodermus:
The lagomorphs are the members of the taxonomic order Lagomorpha, of which there are two living families: the Leporidae and the Ochotonidae (pikas). There are 110 recent species of lagomorph of which 109 are extant, including 10 genera of rabbits, 1 genus of hare and 1 genus of pika. The name of the order is derived from the Ancient Greek lagos + morphē.
The beetle subfamily Curculioninae is part of the weevil family Curculionidae. It contains over 23,500 described species in 2,200 genera, and is therefore the largest weevil subfamily. Given that the beetle order (Coleoptera) contains about one-quarter of all known organisms, the Curculioninae represent one of the – if not the – most successful radiations of terrestrial Metazoa.
Lamiinae, commonly called flat-faced longhorns, are a subfamily of the longhorn beetle family (Cerambycidae). The subfamily includes over 750 genera, rivaled in diversity within the family only by the subfamily Cerambycinae.
Erotylidae, or the pleasing fungus beetles, is a family of beetles belonging to Cucujoidea containing over 100 genera. In the present circumscription, it contains 6 tribes and 10 subfamilies. In other words, the narrowly circumscribed Erotylidae correspond to the subfamily Erotylinae in the definition sensu lato. There are doubts on the monophyly of lower ranked taxa within Erotylidae, with further phylogenetic studies requiring better sampling and studies of unexplored character sets, for example the metendosternite and penile flagellum, which are generally lacking detailed morphological studies within the Coleoptera literature. The Eroytlina taxonomy is based on traits such as their different colors and not off morphological differences like mouthparts, thorax, and abdominal terminalia (Pecci-Maddalena).
Oulema is a genus of leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae.
Platycorynus is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. Species of the genus are found in Africa and Asia.
Mastostethus is a genus of beetles in the family Megalopodidae, containing the following species:
Achryson is a genus of beetles in the family Cerambycidae.
Eburiini is a tribe of beetles in the subfamily Cerambycinae, synonymous with the tribe Heteropsini Lacordaire, 1868, containing the following genera:
Heteropsini is a tribe of beetles in the subfamily Cerambycinae, synonymous with the tribe Eburiini Blanchard, 1845, containing the following genera:
Cosmotoma is a genus of beetles in the family Cerambycidae, containing the following species:
Ophryastini is a weevil tribe in the subfamily Entiminae. There are about 4 genera with 90 species in Ophryastini, found in North America, Asia, and Europe.
Tanymecini is a tribe of broad-nosed weevils in the beetle family Curculionidae, subfamily Entiminae.
Deliathis is a genus of flat-faced longhorns in the beetle family Cerambycidae. There are about 15 described species in Deliathis, found in the Neotropics.
Oomorphus is a genus of leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae. There are about 18 described species in Oomorphus.
Cypherotylus is a genus of pleasing fungus beetles in the family Erotylidae. There are over 30 described species in Cypherotylus. It frequently appears in the literature under the name "Gibbifer", but this name is permanently unavailable under ICZN Article 11.4, as are all of Voet's names.
Macetes is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed in Southeast Africa, from Lake Tanganyika to the Eastern Cape province in South Africa.
Bromiini is a tribe of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. The tribe contains approximately 120 genera, which are found worldwide. They are generally thought to be an artificial group, often with a subcylindrical prothorax without lateral ridges and covered with setae or scales.
Xerodermus porcellus, is a species of weevil found in India and Sri Lanka.
Gagatophorus is a genus of weevils belonging to the family Curculionidae, first described by Henri Jekel in 1865. The decisions for synonymy are based on work by Sigmund Schenkling and G.A.K. Marshall (Pseudamycterus), and Elwood Zimmerman.
