    pill beetles

    Exomella is a genus of pill beetles in the family Byrrhidae, established by Casey in 1914. The genus contains at least two described species: E. merickeli (Johnson, 1985) and E. pleuralis (Casey, 1908). Members of this genus belong to the tribe Exomellini within the subfamily Byrrhinae. The genus has been subject to taxonomic revision and study, with E. pleuralis recently rediscovered and re-evaluated.
