Anatrichis
Anatrichis is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae, established by LeConte in 1853. The genus belongs to the subfamily Licininae and tribe Oodini. It comprises approximately eleven described species distributed across multiple continents including Asia, Australia, and North America. Species within this genus are generally small-bodied, with several species names (lilliputana, minuta, pusilla) reflecting this diminutive size.
Anatrichis minuta
Anatrichis minuta is a species of ground beetle in the family Carabidae, first described by Dejean in 1831. It is a small beetle distributed across North America. The species belongs to the subfamily Licininae and tribe Oodini, placing it among a diverse group of predatory ground beetles. Beyond basic taxonomic classification and geographic distribution, detailed ecological and behavioral information for this species remains limited in available sources.
Evolenes
Evolenes is a monotypic genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae, containing the single species Evolenes exarata. The genus was established by LeConte in 1853 and is classified within the subtribe Oodina of the tribe Oodini. The sole species is known from the United States.
Lachnocrepis
Lachnocrepis is a subgenus of ground beetles within the genus Oodes (family Carabidae), established by LeConte in 1853. It was historically treated as a full genus but was downgraded to subgenus status within Oodes based on morphological character analysis. The subgenus currently contains two recognized species: Oodes (Lachnocrepis) desertus and Oodes (Lachnocrepis) japonicus. These species occur in the Palaearctic and Oriental regions, including China and Taiwan. Members of this subgenus share high morphological similarity with other Oodini, contributing to historical taxonomic confusion.
Lachnocrepis parallela
Lachnocrepis parallela is a species of ground beetle in the family Carabidae, subfamily Licininae. Originally described by Thomas Say in 1830, it is currently treated as a synonym of Oodes parallelus. The species has been recorded from Canada and the United States, including Vermont. As a member of the tribe Oodini, it belongs to a group of carabid beetles often associated with moist habitats.
Oodes
Oodes is a genus of ground beetles (Carabidae) in the tribe Oodini. The genus has undergone significant taxonomic revision, with many species formerly classified in Oodes now placed in three new genera: Pseudoodes, Sundaoodes, and Nothoodes. The genus currently comprises seven recognized species, with five in Oodes s.str. and two in the subgenus Lachnocrepis. Oodes species are distributed across the Palaearctic and Oriental regions.
Oodes amaroides
Oodes amaroides is a ground beetle species in the family Carabidae, first described by Dejean in 1831. It belongs to the subfamily Licininae and tribe Oodini. The species is documented from North America, with occurrence records from Canada and the United States. As a member of the genus Oodes, it shares characteristics with other oodine ground beetles, though specific biological details remain limited in published literature.
Oodinus
Oodinus is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae, subfamily Licininae. The genus was established by Motschulsky in 1865 and contains at least ten described species distributed primarily in the Neotropical region. Species within this genus are small to medium-sized carabids with limited available ecological documentation.
Oodinus alutaceus
Oodinus alutaceus is a ground beetle species in the family Carabidae, originally described by Henry Walter Bates in 1882. It belongs to the tribe Oodini within the subfamily Licininae. The species has a documented distribution spanning parts of North and Central America, including Mexico and the United States.
