• Hymenorus

  comb-clawed beetle

  Hymenorus is a genus of comb-clawed beetles in the subfamily Alleculinae, family Tenebrionidae. These beetles were formerly classified in their own family Alleculidae before being subsumed into Tenebrionidae. They do not resemble 'classic' darkling beetles and represent one of several groups that complicate identification of this family. The 'sp-two-eastern' designation suggests an undescribed or provisionally identified species found in eastern North America.
