    Cyclodinus californicus is a species of antlike flower beetle in the family Anthicidae, first described by LaFerté-Sénectère in 1849. Despite its specific epithet suggesting a California origin, the species has a broader distribution across the Caribbean, Central America, and North America. The genus Cyclodinus belongs to a family of small beetles commonly known as antlike flower beetles due to their resemblance to ants. Information on the biology and ecology of this particular species remains limited.

  • Cyclodinus mono

    Cyclodinus mono is a species of ant-like flower beetle in the family Anthicidae, described by Chandler in 2005.

As a member of Anthicidae, it belongs to a family of small beetles commonly known as ant-like flower beetles due to their resemblance to ants. The species is recorded from North America and Middle America according to GBIF data.
