Taxonomic Note
Pseudanidorus calvescens was described by John Lawrence LeConte in 1875. The Pseudanidorus is part of the Aderidae, a group historically placed in various superfamilies but now generally classified within Cucujoidea. Aderidae are commonly known as ant-like leaf beetles due to their elongate bodies and somewhat -like appearance, though this is a family-level trait and specific morphological features of P. calvescens have not been separately documented in accessible literature.
