Glyphonyx championi
Glyphonyx championi is a species of click beetle in the family Elateridae. The genus Glyphonyx comprises small to medium-sized click beetles characterized by their ability to produce an audible clicking sound through a prosternal process that snaps into a mesosternal groove, allowing them to right themselves when flipped onto their backs. Species within this genus are typically associated with soil and decaying organic matter in various terrestrial habitats.
Glyphonyx ferruginosus
Glyphonyx ferruginosus is a species of click beetle in the family Elateridae. Very little published information exists specifically for this species. The specific epithet "ferruginosus" (rust-colored) suggests reddish-brown coloration, a trait common among many Glyphonyx species. The genus Glyphonyx comprises small to medium-sized click beetles primarily distributed in North America.
Glyphonyx inquinatus
Glyphonyx inquinatus is a species of click beetle in the family Elateridae. The genus Glyphonyx comprises small to medium-sized click beetles, and this species is among the less documented members of the group. Records indicate it has been observed in limited numbers, with six documented observations on iNaturalist. The species name 'inquinatus' suggests a soiled or dirty appearance, possibly referring to coloration or markings.
