Bromiini
Bromiini (or Adoxini) 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. Nomenclature The name "Bromiini" is conserved over the older name "Adoxini" because of Article 40(2) of the ICZN, which states: "If ... a family-group name was replaced before 1961 because of the synonymy of the type genus, the substitute name is to be maintained if it is in prevailing usage. A name maintained by virtue of this Article retains its own author but takes the priority of the replaced name, of which it is deemed to be the senior synonym." Bromiini is cited with its own author and date, followed by the date of the replaced name in parentheses: Bromiini Baly, 1865 (1863). Taxonomy Following the leaf beetle classification of Seeno and Wilcox (1982), the genera of Bromiini are d ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Eumolpinae
The Eumolpinae are a subfamily of the leaf beetles, or Chrysomelidae. It is one of the largest subfamilies of leaf beetles, including more than 500 genera and 7000 species. They are oval, and convex in form, and measure up to 10 mm in size. Typical coloration for this subfamily of beetles ranges from bright yellow to dark red. Many species are iridescent or brilliantly metallic blue or green in appearance. Description Eumolpinae can be recognized at first sight by their rounded thoraces, more or less spherical or bell-shaped, but always significantly narrower than the mesothorax as covered by the elytra. Additional features include a small head set deeply into the thorax, and usually well-developed legs. They generally resemble other Chrysomelidae, but differ in having front coxae rounded and third tarsal segment bilobed beneath. Many are metallic, or yellow and spotted. The dogbane beetle (''Chrysochus auratus''), for instance, is very attractive—iridescent blue-green wit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Eumolpini
Eumolpini is a tribe of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is the largest tribe in the subfamily, with approximately 170 genera found worldwide. Members of the tribe almost always have a longitudinal median groove on the pygidium, which possibly helps to keep the elytra locked at rest. They also generally have a subglabrous body, as well as appendiculate pretarsal claws. Taxonomy Following the leaf beetle classification of Seeno and Wilcox (1982), the genera of Eumolpini are divided into five informal groups or "sections": Corynodites, Edusites, Endocephalites, Eumolpites and Iphimeites. In the ''Catalog of the leaf beetles of America North of Mexico'', published in 2003, the section Myochroites of Bromiini was placed in synonymy with the section Iphimeites in Eumolpini. The North American genera '' Glyptoscelis'' and '' Myochrous'' from Myochroites were also transferred to Iphimeites. Genera These 172 genera belong to the tribe Eumolpini: * '' Abiromorphus'' Pic, 1 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Typophorini
Typophorini is a tribe of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. The tribe contains approximately 100 genera, which are found worldwide. Members of the tribe are mainly characterized by notches on the tibiae of the middle and hind legs, which are sometimes referred to as antenna cleaners. They also generally have a subglabrous body, as well as bifid pretarsal claws. Taxonomy Following the leaf beetle classification of Seeno and Wilcox (1982), the genera of Typophorini are largely divided into five informal groups or "sections": Callisinites, Metachromites, Nodostomini, Pagriites and Typophorites, with some genera having ''incertae sedis'' placement within the tribe. In the ''Catalog of the leaf beetles of America North of Mexico'', published in 2003, the section Scelodontites of Bromiini was transferred to Typophorini. Genera These 76 genera belong to the tribe Typophorini: * '' Afroeurydemus'' Selman, 1965 * '' Amblynetes'' Weise, 1904 * '' Aphilenia'' Weise ''in'' Reitt ...

Bromius Obscurus
''Bromius obscurus'', the western grape rootworm, is a species of beetle in the leaf beetle family. It is the only member of the genus ''Bromius''. The distribution of the species is holarctic; it can be found in North America, wide parts of Europe, and Asia. The species is a known pest of grape vines in Europe and western North America. Etymology The genus is named after Bromius, an epithet of the Greek god Dionysus. Taxonomic history ''Bromius obscurus'' was first described as ''Chrysomela obscura'' by Carl Linnaeus in his 1758 10th edition of ''Systema Naturae''. In 1836, the genus ''Bromius'' was first established by Louis Alexandre Auguste Chevrolat in Dejean's ''Catalogue des Coléoptères'', including Linnaeus's ''Chrysomela obscura'' as well as the species ''Eumolpus hirtus'' (now in '' Trichochrysea'') and ''Cryptocephalus vitis'' (now a synonym of ''Bromius obscurus''). In 1837, William Kirby established the name ''Adoxus'' (derived from the Greek for "inglorious" ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Julius Weise
Julius Weise (6 June 1844 – 25 February 1925) was a German entomologist. He specialised in Coleoptera, especially Chrysomelidae and Coccinellidae, and was one of the first entomologists to use genitalia to identify and classify species. His collections of Chrysomelidae, Coccinellidae, Staphylinidae and Carabidae are in the Museum für Naturkunde in Berlin, and his collections of Cerambycidae and Coccinellidae are in the National Museum of Natural History, Washington, D.C. at www.biol.uni.wroc.pl Collections of and the |

Aoria (beetle)
''Aoria'' is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. Members of the genus are distributed in East and Southeast Asia. Food plants are known for only a few species, all of which were recorded from Vitaceae The Vitaceae are a family of flowering plants, with 14 genera and around 910 known species, including common plants such as grapevines (''Vitis'' spp.) and Virginia creeper (''Parthenocissus quinquefolia''). The family name is derived from the ge .... Four genera similar to ''Aoria'' are known: '' Aloria'', '' Enneaoria'', '' Osnaparis'' and '' Pseudaoria''. ''Osnaparis'' is regarded as a subgenus of ''Aoria'' by some researchers. In a revision of the genus ''Aoria'' in 2012, L. N. Medvedev included both ''Osnaparis'' and ''Pseudaoria'' as subgenera of ''Aoria'', and treated ''Enneaoria'' as a synonym of ''Aloria''.
