Beetle
Beetles are insects that form the order Coleoptera (), in the superorder Endopterygota. Their front pair of wings are hardened into wing-cases, elytra, distinguishing them from most other insects. The Coleoptera, with about 400,000 described species, is the largest of all orders, constituting almost 40% of described insects and 25% of all known animal life-forms; new species are discovered frequently, with estimates suggesting that there are between 0.9 and 2.1 million total species. Found in almost every habitat except the sea and the polar regions, they interact with their ecosystems in several ways: beetles often feed on plants and fungi, break down animal and plant debris, and eat other invertebrates. Some species are serious agricultural pests, such as the Colorado potato beetle, while others such as Coccinellidae (ladybirds or ladybugs) eat aphids, scale insects, thrips, and other plant-sucking insects that damage crops. Beetles typically have a particularly har ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Lamiinae
Lamiinae, commonly called flat-faced longhorns, are a subfamily of the longhorn beetle family (Cerambycidae). The subfamily includes over 750 genera, rivaled in diversity within the family only by the subfamily Cerambycinae. Tribes The tribal level classification of the Lamiinae is still yet to be completely resolved. Lacordaire in the 1870s split the Lamiinae into nearly 94 tribes while the work of Bouchard et al. (2011) classified them into 80 tribes. Some tribes have been established for single genera and several genera have not been placed reliably within any tribe. Some of the tribes included below may not be valid and several have been synonymised. Taxa ''incertae sedis'': * genus ''Cerambycinus'' Münster in Germar, 1839 * genus ''Cypriola'' J. Thomson, 1865 * genus ''Decellia'' Breuning, 1968 * genus ''Dorcadionoides'' Motschulsky, 1857 * genus ''Falsozeargyra'' Gilmour & Breuning, 1963 * genus ''Heteropalpoides'' Fisher, 1935 * genus ''Paralamiodorcadion'' Breuning, ...

Cyprus
Cyprus ; tr, Kıbrıs (), officially the Republic of Cyprus,, , lit: Republic of Cyprus is an island country located south of the Anatolian Peninsula in the eastern Mediterranean Sea. Its continental position is disputed; while it is geographically in Western Asia, its cultural ties and geopolitics are overwhelmingly Southern European. Cyprus is the third-largest and third-most populous island in the Mediterranean. It is located north of Egypt, east of Greece, south of Turkey, and west of Lebanon and Syria. Its capital and largest city is Nicosia. The northeast portion of the island is ''de facto'' governed by the self-declared Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, which was established after the 1974 invasion and which is recognised as a country only by Turkey. The earliest known human activity on the island dates to around the 10th millennium BC. Archaeological remains include the well-preserved ruins from the Hellenistic period such as Salamis, Cyprus, Salam ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Erophaca Baetica
''Erophaca'' is a monotypic genus of the tribe Galegeae. Its only species ''Erophaca baetica'' is a perennial plant distributed in disjunct populations in the Mediterranean Region. According to nrDNA ITS analysis, ''Erophaca'' is monophyletic and related to the Astragalean clade. It is also andromonoecious (a rare sexual system among the angiosperms and a novelty for Old World papilionoid legumes). ''Erophaca baetica'' has two subspecies distributed at opposite ends of the Mediterranean region: *''E. baetica subsp. baetica'': Native to the southern half of the Iberian Peninsula (Portugal and Spain) and Northwest Africa (Morocco and Algeria). *''E. baetica subsp. orientalis'': Native to the Eastern Mediterranean (Greece, Turkey, Cyprus and Lebanon Lebanon ( , ar, لُبْنَان, translit=lubnān, ), officially the Republic of Lebanon () or the Lebanese Republic, is a country in Western Asia.
