Usechus
ironclad beetles
Usechus is a genus of ironclad beetles in the family Zopheridae, established by Motschulsky in 1845. The genus contains at least two described species: Usechus lacerta and Usechus nucleatus. Members of this genus belong to the tribe Usechini within the subfamily Zopherinae. These beetles are part of the highly sclerotized ironclad beetle group known for their hardened, protective exoskeletons.
