Lagria is a genus of beetles in the family Tenebrionidae. [1] [2]
Lagria villosa is a significant pest of crops. [3]
Species recorded in Europe include the following: [1]
Species native to Africa include:
Johan Christian Fabricius was a Danish zoologist, specialising in "Insecta", which at that time included all arthropods: insects, arachnids, crustaceans and others. He was a student of Carl Linnaeus, and is considered one of the most important entomologists of the 18th century, having named nearly 10,000 species of animals, and established the basis for the modern insect classification.
Pentatomidae is a family of insects belonging to the order Hemiptera, generally called shield bugs or stink bugs. Pentatomidae is the largest family in the superfamily Pentatomoidea, and contains around 900 genera and over 4700 species. As hemipterans, the pentatomids have piercing sucking mouthparts, and most are phytophagous, including several species which are severe pests on agricultural crops. However, some species, particularly in the subfamily Asopinae, are predatory and may be considered beneficial.
Pimelia is a genus of darkling beetles in the subfamily Pimeliinae.
Ctenolepisma is a genus of primitive insects in the order Zygentoma, closely related to the silverfish and firebrat but less reliant on human habitation, some species being found both indoors and outdoors and some found exclusively outdoors. The genus is distributed nearly worldwide in warm regions. Australia lacks native Ctenolepisma, but is home to introduced species.
Schinia, commonly called flower moths, is a large genus of moths belonging to the family Noctuidae. The genus has a Holarctic distribution with the vast majority of species being found in North America, many with a very restricted range and larval food plant.
Lomographa bimaculata, the white-pinion spotted, is a species of geometer moth. It belongs to the large geometer moth subfamily Ennominae, and therein to the tribe Baptini. It is – under its junior synonym – the type species of its genus Lomographa. It is also the type species of Bapta, a junior objective synonym of Lomographa and the namesake of the Baptini. The species was first described by Johan Christian Fabricius ion 1775.
Epagoge grotiana, common name brown-barred tortrix, is a moth of the family Tortricidae, first described by Johan Christian Fabricius in 1781.
Cossyphus is a genus of darkling beetles in the family Tenebrionidae. They occur in Eurasia and Africa.
Dexia is a genus of tachinid flies in the family Tachinidae. Most larvae are parasitoids of beetles (Scarabaeidae).
Cerocoma is a Palearctic genus of blister beetle, whose biology is poorly known. As in other members of the family, these insects are hypermetamorphic. Larval hosts of few species were described. Imagines show distinct sexual dimorphism in the feeding apparatus and the antennae. All species in this genus have aposematic colouration.
Stagonomus venustissimus, common name woundwort shieldbug, is a species of shieldbug belonging to the family Pentatomidae, subfamily Pentatominae.
Galerucella is a genus of leaf beetles in the family Chrysomelidae described by George Robert Crotch in 1873. It is widely distributed but absent in the Neotropics.Some species feed on waterlilies and are used as biocontrol of introduced, invasive waterlilies. Galerucella tenella feed on strawberry plants.
Lagria hirta is a species of beetles in the family Tenebrionidae.
Gonocephalum is a genus of darkling beetles in the family Tenebrionidae.
Pinthaeus is a genus of stink bugs.
Atherix is a genus of 'ibis flies' belonging to the family Athericidae, a small family very similar to the Rhagionidae. Species within this genus are present in most of Europe and also in the Nearctic realm. There are at least 30 described species in Atherix.
Stizus is a genus of sand wasps belonging to the family Crabronidae. There are over 100 species.
Crudosilis ruficollis is a species of soldier beetles native to Europe.
Prionychus is a genus of beetles belonging to the family Tenebrionidae.
