Zopheridae Jewelry Sjh
The Zopheridae family of beetles has grown considerably in recent years as the members of two other families have been included within its circumscription; these former families are the Monommatidae and the Colydiidae, which are now both included in the Zopheridae as subfamilies or (in the former case) even as tribe of subfamily Zopherinae. Some authors accept up to six subfamilies here, while others merge all except the Colydiinae into the Zopherinae. The family has approximately 190 genera and 1700 species, which are found worldwide. A large number of members of the family feed on rotting wood or fungus associated with rotting wood, though some members of Colydiinae are predatory, or feed on living plant tissue such as roots, stems, flower stalks and fruit. The oldest fossils of the family are '' Paleoendeitoma'' (subfamily Colydiinae, tribe Synchitini) and '' Cretomysteria'' from the early Late Cretaceous (Cenomanian) Burmese amber from Myanmar.

Zopherus Nodulosus
''Zopherus nodulosus,'' is a species of ironclad beetle in the family Zopheridae. It is found in Central America and North America. The species name ''nodulosus'' refers to the bumps or nodes on the beetle's back. Subspecies ''Z. n. haldemani'' ''Z. n. haldemani'' Horn, 1870, common names Haldeman's ironclad beetle or Texas ironclad Beetle, is sometimes treated as a separate species. It can grow between 1.5 and 2 centimetres in length. The body is a blotchy black-and-white pattern, and the legs are fully black. The subspecies name, ''haldemani'', references the Haldeman brothers ( Samuel Haldeman and Horace Haldeman), the former a naturalist and philologist, the latter a soldier and one of the first people to concentrate on insect collection in Texas. They are thought to feed on lichen and dead plant material. Females have been observed laying eggs on American elms, and larvae and pupae have been found in pecan wood, which "apparently serves as the developmental site for ...
