Diplous aterrimus
Diplous aterrimus is a species of ground beetle in the family Carabidae. It is native to North America, with documented records from Alaska, Canada, and the contiguous United States. As a member of the subfamily Patrobinae, it belongs to a group of small to medium-sized ground beetles often associated with moist habitats.
Diplous californicus
Diplous californicus is a species of ground beetle in the family Carabidae. It is found in North America, with records from Canada and the United States. The species was described by Motschulsky in 1844. It belongs to the subfamily Patrobinae, a group of small to medium-sized ground beetles often associated with riparian and moist habitats.
Diplous rugicollis
Diplous rugicollis is a ground beetle species in the family Carabidae, first described by Randall in 1838. It belongs to the subfamily Patrobinae, a group of small to medium-sized carabid beetles often associated with moist habitats. The species is documented from North America, with records from both Canada and the United States. Available information on this species is limited, with minimal observational data published.
Patrobus foveocollis
Patrobus foveocollis is a ground beetle species in the family Carabidae, characterized by its Holarctic distribution spanning Europe, Northern Asia, and North America. The species belongs to the subfamily Patrobinae, a group of ground beetles often associated with moist habitats. Like other Patrobus species, it is sensitive to soil disturbance and agricultural practices.
Patrobus lecontei
Patrobus lecontei is a species of ground beetle in the family Carabidae, first described by Chaudoir in 1872. It belongs to the subfamily Patrobinae, a group of carabid beetles often associated with moist or riparian habitats. The species is documented from North America, with occurrence records from Canada and the United States. Like other members of the genus Patrobus, it is likely a predatory beetle, though specific ecological details remain poorly documented in the available literature.
Patrobus longicornis
Long-horned Patrobus Beetle
Patrobus longicornis is a ground beetle species in the family Carabidae. It is native to North America and occurs in both Canada and the United States. The species was first described by Thomas Say in 1823 under the basionym Feronia longicornis. Like other members of the genus Patrobus, it inhabits moist terrestrial environments.
Platidiolus
Platidiolus is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae, established by Chaudoir in 1878. The genus contains five described species, four of which are endemic to Russia and one to North America. Species were described between 1878 and 2001.
Platidiolus vandykei
Platidiolus vandykei is a species of ground beetle in the family Carabidae. It was described by Kurnakov in 1960. The species is known from North America, with distribution records from Alaska, Canada, and the contiguous United States. As a member of the subfamily Patrobinae, it belongs to a group of small to medium-sized ground beetles typically associated with riparian and moist habitats.
Platypatrobus
Platypatrobus is a monotypic genus of ground beetles (family Carabidae) established by Darlington in 1938. The genus contains a single species, Platypatrobus lacustris, found in North America. It belongs to the subfamily Patrobinae, a group of small to medium-sized ground beetles often associated with moist habitats.
Platypatrobus lacustris
Platypatrobus lacustris is a ground beetle in the family Carabidae, subfamily Patrobinae. First described by Darlington in 1938, this species is one of only two recognized species in the genus Platypatrobus. The genus is characterized by distinctive morphological features including an elongated, somewhat flattened body form and modified tarsal structures. The species epithet "lacustris" suggests an association with lake or lakeshore habitats. Records indicate presence in Canada and the United States, though specific habitat details remain poorly documented in accessible literature.
