Endeitoma
Endeitoma is a genus of cylindrical bark beetles in the family Zopheridae, established by Sharp in 1894. The genus contains at least two described species in North America: Endeitoma dentata and Endeitoma granulata. These beetles are part of the diverse zopherid fauna associated with dead or decaying wood.
Lasconotus
cylindrical bark beetles
Lasconotus is a genus of cylindrical bark beetles in the family Zopheridae, established by Erichson in 1845. The genus contains at least 20 described species. Members are associated with coniferous forests, particularly spruce systems. Some species exhibit specialized behavioral adaptations, including attraction to bark beetle aggregation pheromones.
Monoedus
Monoedus is a genus of cylindrical bark beetles in the family Zopheridae. It contains approximately eight described species distributed primarily in the Neotropical region. The genus was established by G.H. Horn in 1882 and is currently classified within the tribe Adimerini, subfamily Colydiinae. Species in this genus are characterized by their elongated, cylindrical body form typical of many colydiine beetles.
Phloeonemus
Phloeonemus is a genus of cylindrical bark beetles in the family Zopheridae, established by Erichson in 1845. The genus contains at least three described species: P. catenulatus, P. interruptus, and P. martorelli. These beetles are associated with bark habitats, though specific ecological details remain poorly documented. Members of this genus are rarely encountered in collections and field observations.
Synchitini
cylindrical bark beetles
Synchitini is a tribe of cylindrical bark beetles in the family Zopheridae, established by Redtenbacher in 1845. The tribe contains approximately 19 genera and at least 40 described species. Members of this group are characterized by their elongated, cylindrical body form adapted for living under bark. A fossil genus, †Paleoendeitoma, has been described from Burmese amber dating to the Cenomanian period.
