Brachypnoea
Brachypnoea is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae, primarily distributed in the Neotropical realm with eight species extending into the Nearctic realm. The genus was established by Gistel in 1848 as a replacement name for the preoccupied Noda (Chevrolat, 1836). Several species have been reclassified to other genera, including Dryadomolpus, Chrysodinopsis, and Spintherophyta. The genus belongs to the tribe Typophorini within the diverse leaf beetle family Chrysomelidae.
Odonteus
Odonteus is a genus of earth-boring dung beetles in the family Bolboceratidae, comprising approximately 60 described species distributed across multiple continents. The genus was established by Samouelle in 1819, predating the synonym Bolboceras by one month; this priority was formally recognized by ICZN Opinion 2138 in 2006. Species in this genus exhibit considerable morphological diversity, particularly in horn development and body sculpturing. The type species is Odonteus armiger (Scopoli, 1772).
