Enigmatic Scarab Beetle
''Glaresis'' is a genus of beetles, sometimes called "Enigmatic scarab beetles", in its own family, the Glaresidae. It is closely related to, and was formerly included in, the family Scarabaeidae. Although its members occur in arid and sandy areas worldwide (except Australia), only the nocturnal adults have ever been collected (typically at lights), and both the larvae and biology of ''Glaresis'' are as yet unknown. Due to their narrow habitat associations, a great number of these species occur in extremely limited geographic areas, and are accordingly imperiled by habitat destruction. These beetles are small, 2.5–6 mm long, and have the stocky appearance typical of fossorial scarabs, with short, heavy, spurred legs. Color ranges from tan to dark brown, and the back is covered with short setae. Efforts to raise glaresids in the laboratory were undertaken in the 1980s by C. H. Scholtz and others, but were unsuccessful. ''Glaresis'' was originally classified with Trogidae ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Scarabaeiformia
Scarabaeoidea is a Taxonomic rank, superfamily of beetles, the only subgroup of the infraorder Scarabaeiformia. Around 35,000 species are placed in this superfamily and some 200 new species are described each year. Its constituent families are also undergoing revision presently, and the family list below is only preliminary. The oldest confirmed member of the group is ''Alloioscarabaeus'' from the Middle Jurassic Jiulongshan Formation of Inner Mongolia, China. Families The following families are listed in Bouchard (2011): * Belohinidae Paulian, 1959 * Diphyllostomatidae Holloway, 1972 (false stag beetles) * Geotrupidae Pierre André Latreille, Latreille, 1802 (earth-boring dung beetles) * Glaphyridae William Sharp MacLeay, MacLeay, 1819 (bumble bee scarab beetles) * Glaresidae Kolbe, 1905 (enigmatic scarab beetles) * Hybosoridae Wilhelm Ferdinand Erichson, Erichson, 1847 (scavenging scarab beetles) ** inclusive of Ceratocanthidae (pill scarab beetles) * Lucanidae Latreille 180 ...
