Guides
Notoxus bifasciatus
Notoxus bifasciatus is a species of monoceros beetle in the family Anthicidae, first described by LeConte in 1847. The species is found in North America, with records from Canada (Manitoba, New Brunswick, Saskatchewan) and the United States. Like other members of the genus Notoxus, it is commonly known as an ant-like flower beetle due to its resemblance to ants.
Notoxus gelidus
monoceros beetle
Notoxus gelidus is a small ant-like flower beetle in the family Anthicidae, described by Chandler in 1978. The species is known from Central America and North America. Like other members of the genus Notoxus, it possesses a distinctive forward-projecting horn on the pronotum, a characteristic feature of "monoceros beetles."
Notoxus haustrus
Notoxus haustrus is a species of ant-like flower beetle in the family Anthicidae. Members of the genus Notoxus are characterized by their elongated, narrow prothorax that projects forward into a distinct snout-like structure. The genus is diverse in North America, with many species found in arid and semi-arid regions. Like other anthicids, adults are typically found on flowers, foliage, or ground debris where they feed on pollen and small organic particles.
Notoxus lustrellus
Notoxus lustrellus is a species of monoceros beetle in the family Anthicidae, described by Casey in 1895. It is one of approximately 300 described species in the genus Notoxus, commonly known as ant-like flower beetles. The species is known from North America. Members of the genus Notoxus are characterized by a distinctive forward-projecting horn on the pronotum, a trait that gives the group its common name 'monoceros beetles.'
Notoxus sparsus
Notoxus sparsus is a species of ant-like flower beetle in the family Anthicidae, described by John Lawrence LeConte in 1859. Members of the genus Notoxus are characterized by a distinctive elongated rostrum with antennal insertions located near its tip, a trait that separates them from superficially similar ant-like beetles in other families. The species occurs in North America and Middle America, though specific details about its biology remain poorly documented. Like other anthicids, adults are likely active on the ground surface or in low vegetation.
