Thione
Thione is a genus of small beetles in the family Monotomidae, established by Sharp in 1899. Members of this genus belong to the tribe Thionini, a group of monotomid beetles characterized by their association with decaying organic matter and fungal substrates. The genus is part of the nitiduloid beetle assemblage within the superfamily Cucujoidea. Species-level taxonomy and biology of Thione remain poorly documented in available literature.
