Meganoplium imbelle
Meganoplium imbelle is the sole species in the monotypic genus Meganoplium, a group of longhorn beetles in the family Cerambycidae. Originally described by John Lawrence LeConte in 1881 as Elaphidion imbelle, the species was later transferred to its current genus by Linsley in 1940. It represents a rare example of a genus-level monotypy within the diverse cerambycid fauna of western North America.
