Scirtidae
Scirtidae is a family of beetles (Coleoptera). These beetles are commonly referred to as marsh beetles, as the larvae are typically associated with stagnant water, but can be found in flowing water. Adults prefer decomposing plant material near the water's edge. More than an estimated 600 species are known worldwide, distributed among at least 60 genera. Genera These 81 genera belong to the family Scirtidae: * '' Accolabass'' Watts, 2009 * '' Alpestriscyphon'' Watts, Cooper & Libonatti, 2020 * '' Amplectopus'' Sharp, 1886 * '' Anocyphon'' Watts, Cooper & Libonatti, 2020 * '' Anthocara'' Watts, Cooper & Libonatti, 2020 * '' Anticyphon'' Ruta, 2016 * '' Atopida'' White, 1846 * '' Austrocyphon'' Zwick, 2013 * '' Brachelodes'' Yablokov-Khnzorian, 1961 * '' Brachycyphon'' Fairmaire, 1896 * '' Byrrhopsis'' Champion, 1913 * '' Calvariopsis'' Ruta, 2019 * '' Calvarium'' Pic, 1918 * '' Chameloscyphon'' Watts, 2011 * '' Chilarboreus'' Ruta, 2011 * '' Contacyphon'' Des Gozis, 1886 * '' C ...

Scirtoidea
Scirtoidea is a superfamily of beetles. It is traditionally considered to consist of four families: Clambidae, Decliniidae, Eucinetidae and Scirtidae. However, genetic studies have suggested that Clambidae and Eucinetidae belong to a separate superfamily Clamboidea, which also includes Derodontidae. Scirtoidea and Clamboidea are the two earliest diverging lineages of living polyphagans. Two extinct families have also been assigned to this group: *† Mesocinetidae Kirejtshuk and Ponomarenko 2010 Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous (Asia) *† Elodophthalmidae Kirejtshuk and Azar 2008 monotypic, Lebanese amber, Barremian The Barremian is an age in the geologic timescale (or a chronostratigraphic stage) between 125.77 Ma (million years ago) and 121.4 ± 1.0 Ma (Historically, this stage was placed at 129.4 million to approximately 125 million years ago) It is a ...
