    Diplous is a genus of ground beetles in the family Carabidae, tribe Patrobini. The genus contains more than 20 described species distributed primarily in boreal North America and Asia.

  • Patrobina

    Patrobina is a subtribe of ground beetles (Carabidae) within the tribe Patrobini, established by Kirby in 1837. Members of this subtribe are small to medium-sized beetles associated with moist, often riparian or wetland habitats. The subtribe includes genera such as Patrobus and others, though the precise generic composition has been subject to taxonomic revision. Patrobina beetles are part of the diverse carabid fauna that contributes to predatory control of invertebrate populations in temperate ecosystems.
