Typophorini
Typophorini is a tribe of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. The tribe contains approximately 100 genera, which are found worldwide. Members of the tribe are mainly characterized by notches on the tibiae of the middle and hind legs, which are sometimes referred to as antenna cleaners. They also generally have a subglabrous body, as well as bifid pretarsal claws. Taxonomy Following the leaf beetle classification of Seeno and Wilcox (1982), the genera of Typophorini are largely divided into five informal groups or "sections": Callisinites, Metachromites, Nodostomini, Pagriites and Typophorites, with some genera having ''incertae sedis'' placement within the tribe. In the ''Catalog of the leaf beetles of America North of Mexico'', published in 2003, the section Scelodontites of Bromiini was transferred to Typophorini. Genera These 76 genera belong to the tribe Typophorini: * '' Afroeurydemus'' Selman, 1965 * '' Amblynetes'' Weise, 1904 * '' Aphilenia'' Weise ''in'' Reitt ...

Bromiini
Bromiini (or Adoxini) is a tribe of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. The tribe contains approximately 120 genera, which are found worldwide. They are generally thought to be an artificial group, often with a subcylindrical prothorax without lateral ridges and covered with setae or scales. Nomenclature The name "Bromiini" is conserved over the older name "Adoxini" because of Article 40(2) of the ICZN, which states: "If ... a family-group name was replaced before 1961 because of the synonymy of the type genus, the substitute name is to be maintained if it is in prevailing usage. A name maintained by virtue of this Article retains its own author but takes the priority of the replaced name, of which it is deemed to be the senior synonym." Bromiini is cited with its own author and date, followed by the date of the replaced name in parentheses: Bromiini Baly, 1865 (1863). Taxonomy Following the leaf beetle classification of Seeno and Wilcox (1982), the genera of Bromiini are d ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Eumolpinae
The Eumolpinae are a subfamily of the leaf beetles, or Chrysomelidae. It is one of the largest subfamilies of leaf beetles, including more than 500 genera and 7000 species. They are oval, and convex in form, and measure up to 10 mm in size. Typical coloration for this subfamily of beetles ranges from bright yellow to dark red. Many species are iridescent or brilliantly metallic blue or green in appearance. Description Eumolpinae can be recognized at first sight by their rounded thoraces, more or less spherical or bell-shaped, but always significantly narrower than the mesothorax as covered by the elytra. Additional features include a small head set deeply into the thorax, and usually well-developed legs. They generally resemble other Chrysomelidae, but differ in having front coxae rounded and third tarsal segment bilobed beneath. Many are metallic, or yellow and spotted. The dogbane beetle ('' Chrysochus auratus''), for instance, is very attractive—iridescent blue-green wi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Atomyria
''Atomyria'' is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed in Central Asia and Iran. In 2012, the genus was moved from the tribe Bromiini to the tribe Nodinini (now known as Typophorini Typophorini is a tribe of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae.

In 2020, the genus was revised by A. G. Moseyko, who described a new species and transferred two species to '' Chloropterus'', leaving only two valid species remaining within ''Atomyria''. Members of the genus inhabit tugai forests. The known distribution of ''Atomyria'' also corresponds very closely with the distribution of the desert shrub genus '' Tamarix''.

Chloropterus
''Chloropterus'' is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is distributed in Eastern Europe, West to Central Asia and North Africa. The genus was originally established under the name ''Heterocnemis'' by the Russian entomologist Ferdinand Morawitz in 1860 for a single species, '' Heterocnemis versicolor''. However, the name ''Heterocnemis'' had already been used for a genus of flower chafers (Cetoniinae), so Morawitz renamed his genus to ''Chloropterus'' the following year. Species * '' Chloropterus bimaculatus'' ( Raffray, 1873) * '' Chloropterus fiorii'' Ruffo, 1965 * '' Chloropterus grandis'' Weise, 1889 * '' Chloropterus inornatus'' ( Chen, 1935) * '' Chloropterus lefevrei'' Reitter, 1890 ** '' Chloropterus lefevrei arabicus'' Lopatin, 2008 ** '' Chloropterus lefevrei lefevrei'' Reitter, 1890 * '' Chloropterus mateui'' (Selman, 1969) * '' Chloropterus moldaviensis'' Pic, 1909 * '' Chloropterus ornatus'' Lopatin, 1984 * '' Chloropterus pallidus'' C ...
