• Aegialites californicus

  Aegialites californicus is a flightless intertidal beetle in the family Salpingidae. It inhabits the supralittoral zone of rocky shores along the northern Pacific coast, from California to Alaska and across to northern Japan and Kamchatka. The species possesses specialized morphological adaptations for its challenging habitat, including widely separated coxae, long tarsi, and large claws. Its complete mitochondrial genome has been sequenced, representing the first such data for the genus Aegialites.
