Agathidium oniscoides
round fungus beetle
Agathidium oniscoides is a species of round fungus beetle in the family Leiodidae, described by Palisot de Beauvois in 1817. The species is found across eastern and central North America, from Canada through the United States. The specific epithet "oniscoides" derives from the Greek "oniskos" (woodlouse) and "-oides" (resembling), indicating a resemblance to woodlice. Like other members of the genus Agathidium, this species is associated with fungal habitats.
