Pleasing Fungus Beetle
''Ischyrus quadripunctatus'' Erotylidae, or the pleasing fungus beetles, is a family of beetles belonging to Cucujoidea containing over 100 genera. In the present circumscription, it contains 6 tribes (Tritomini, Dacnini, Megalodacnini, Erotylini, Cryptophilini, and Languriini) and 10 subfamilies ( Cryptophilinae, Dacninae, Encaustinae, Erotylinae, Languriinae, Loberinae, Megalodacninae, Pharaxonothinae, Tritominae, and Xenoscelinae). In other words, the narrowly circumscribed Erotylidae correspond to the subfamily Erotylinae in the definition ''sensu lato''. There are doubts on the monophyly of lower ranked taxa within Erotylidae, with further phylogenetic studies requiring better sampling and studies of unexplored character sets, for example the metendosternite and penile flagellum, which are generally lacking detailed morphological studies within the Coleoptera literature. The Eroytlina taxonomy is based off traits such as their different colors and not off morphol ...

Tritoma
''Tritoma'' is a genus of beetles in the family Erotylidae, the pleasing fungus beetles. It is distributed worldwide, mainly in the Old World.Goodrich, M. A. and C. A. Springer. (1999)The pleasing fungus beetles (Coleoptera: Erotylidae) of Nebraska.''Transactions of the Nebraska Academy of Sciences'' 25 53-71. There are over 100 species. Some species consume euagaric mushrooms, staying concealed amidst the gills as they feed. Some feed on mushrooms growing from dead trees, as well as mycorrhizae on living roots. One of the most common pleasing fungus beetles in Europe, ''T. bipustulata'', is a black beetle with red spots which engages in autohaemorrhaging as a defensive behavior.Drilling, K. and K. Dettner. (2010)First insights into the chemical defensive system of the erotylid beetle, ''Tritoma bipustulata''.''Chemoecology'' 20(4), 243-53. Molecular analysis suggests that ''Tritoma'' is paraphyletic, and might be best treated as two separate genera.Robertson, J. A., et al. (2 ...
