Dermestidae
Dermestidae are a family of Coleoptera that are commonly referred to as skin beetles. Other common names include larder beetle, hide or leather beetles, carpet beetles, and khapra beetles. There are over 1,100 species described. Dermestids have a variety of habits; most genera are scavengers that feed on dry animal or plant material, such as skin or pollen, animal hair, feathers, dead insects and natural fibers. Members of ''Dermestes'' are found in animal carcasses, while others may be found in mammal, bird, bee, or wasp nests. ''Thaumaglossa'' only lives in the egg cases of mantids, while ''Trogoderma'' species are pests of grain. These beetles are significant in forensic entomology. Some species are associated with decaying carcasses, which helps with criminal investigations. Some species are pests ( urban entomology) and can cause extensive damage to natural fibers in homes and businesses. They are used in taxidermy and by natural history museums to clean animal skeletons ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Anthrenus Pimpinellae Complex
''Anthrenus pimpinellae'' complex (informally called ''pimpinellae'' species group) is a group of closely related species from subgenus ''Anthrenus''. Most species that currently belong to the group were previously assigned as subspecies of ''Anthrenus pimpinellae''. Species According to various sources, such as World Dermestidae catalogue and new research, these species currently belong to the group: *'' Anthrenus almatyensis'' (Háva, 2018) – Kazakhstan *'' Anthrenus amandae'' (Holloway, 2019) – Spain (Mallorca) *''Anthrenus angustefasciatus'' (Ganglbauer, 1904) – Europe (Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Czech Republic, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Monaco, Portugal, Serbia, Spain, Switzerland); Turkey; Algeria; Morocco; Tunisia *'' Anthrenus corona'' (Holloway, 2021) – Armenia; Austria; Bosnia; Bulgaria; Croatia; Georgia; Greece; Hungary; Italy; Macedonia; Montenegro; Portugal; Romania; Serbia; Sicily; Spain; Turkey; Iran; Jordan; Syria *''Anthre ...

Anthrenus
''Anthrenus'' is a genus of beetles in the family Dermestidae, the skin beetles. One of several genera of carpet beetles, ''Anthrenus'' was historically placed in a subfamily Anthreninae, though presently included in the Megatominae. The genus '' Neoanthrenus'' is closely related. ''Anthrenus'' carpet beetles are small beetles a few millimetres long with a rather rounded shape. Their antennae bear small clubs at the end, which are plumper in males than in females. Many have a delicate and rather pretty pattern, with a dark body covered in colorful scales of various brown, tan, red, whitish and grey hues. These scales rub off easily, and old individuals are often partially devoid of them, showing the shining black elytra. A considerable number of subspecies and varieties have been named, but it is questionable whether these are all valid or simply refer to such age-related differences. The massive number of species has been divided into several subgenera, but these are not ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Beetles Of Europe
Beetles are insects that form the order Coleoptera (), in the superorder Endopterygota. Their front pair of wings are hardened into wing-cases, elytra, distinguishing them from most other insects. The Coleoptera, with about 400,000 described species, is the largest of all orders, constituting almost 40% of described insects and 25% of all known animal life-forms; new species are discovered frequently, with estimates suggesting that there are between 0.9 and 2.1 million total species. Found in almost every habitat except the sea and the polar regions, they interact with their ecosystems in several ways: beetles often feed on plants and fungi, break down animal and plant debris, and eat other invertebrates. Some species are serious agricultural pests, such as the Colorado potato beetle, while others such as Coccinellidae (ladybirds or ladybugs) eat aphids, scale insects, thrips, and other plant-sucking insects that damage crops. Beetles typically have a particularly hard exos ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
