• Campylomorphus

  Campylomorphus is a monotypic genus of click beetles (Elateridae) containing a single species, Campylomorphus homalisinus. The genus is characterized by its rare orophilous (mountain-dwelling) habit and discontinuous distribution across southwestern Europe. Adults are small, flower-foraging beetles with generalist feeding strategies. The genus exhibits a fragmented geographic pattern hypothesized to reflect Pleistocene glaciation dynamics.
