Laemophloeidae
Laemophloeidae, "lined flat bark beetles," is a family in the superfamily Cucujoidea characterized by predominantly dorso-ventrally compressed bodies, head and pronotal discs bordered by ridges or grooves, and inverted male genitalia. Size range of adults is in length. Currently, it contains 40 genera and about 450 species, and is represented on all continents except Antarctica; species richness is greatest in the tropics. Classicification Historically, Laemophloeidae was treated as a subfamily of Cucujidae, but starting in the middle of the 20th century, most of what had been treated as subfamilies of the Cucujidae were considered to be families. Habitat and behaviour Most laemophloeids, adults and larvae, are found under bark of dead trees, where they apparently are primarily fungivores, although some genera with adults having subcylindrical bodies (e.g., '' Leptophloeus'', '' Dysmerus'') occur in the galleries of bark beetles (Curculionidae The Curculionidae are a family ...

Cryptolestes
''Cryptolestes'' is a genus of beetles in the family Laemophloeidae. Several species are known as economically important pests of stored products, especially food grains. The four most notorious species are '' Cryptolestes ferrugineus'', '' Cryptolestes pusilloides'', '' Cryptolestes pusillus'', and '' Cryptolestes turcicus''.Thomas, M. C. (1988)A revision of the new world species of ''Cryptolestes'' Ganglbauer (Coleoptera: Cucujidae: Laemophloeinae).''Insecta Mundi'' 2(1), 43-65. paper 495. ''C. capensis'', ''C. klapperichi'', and ''C. ugandae'' are less widespread pests. Species in this genus can be hard to distinguish from one another, and definitive identification often requires close examination of the genitalia A sex organ (or reproductive organ) is any part of an animal or plant that is involved in sexual reproduction. The reproductive organs together constitute the reproductive system. In animals, the testis in the male, and the ovary in the female, a .... Species incl ...

Laemophloeus Germaini
''Laemophloeus'' is a genus of beetles; it is the type genus of the family Laemophloeidae. The genus has been almost completely reviewed in modern times. Following Lefkovitch, by recognizing only those species congeneric with the type species, ''Laemophloeus monilis'' (Fabricius), as valid members of the genus, this reduces the size of the genus from more than a hundred species to only 28, as follows (with their distribution): * ''Laemophloeus apache'' (Thomas) orth America* '' Laemophloeus biguttatus'' (Say) orth America* ''Laemophloeus buenavista'' (Thomas) exico, Central and South America* ''Laemophloeus capitisculptus'' (Thomas) outh America* ''Laemophloeus concinnus'' (Thomas) entral and South America* ''Laemophloeus corporoflavus'' (Thomas) outh America* ''Laemophloeus dozieri'' (Thomas) outh America* '' Laemophloeus fasciatus'' (Melsheimer) orth America* '' Laemophloeus fervidus'' (Casey) orth America* ''Laemophloeus germaini'' (Grouvelle) entral and South America* ...
