Plate-thigh Beetle
Eucinetidae is a family of beetles, notable for their large coxal plates that cover much of the first ventrite of the abdomen, sometimes called plate-thigh beetles. The family is small for beetles, with about 50 species in 11 genera, but are found worldwide. Adults are generally elliptical in shape, ranging from 0.8 to 4.0 mm in length, and black or brown in color. The head is small and bent underneath. Eucinetids live in detritus or in fungus-covered tree bark, where both adults and larvae are assumed to eat various sorts of fungi. Around half of the genera possess strongly modified mouthparts, particularly the labrum, adapted for suctorial feeding. Genera These genera belong to the family Eucinetidae: * '' Eucinetella'' * '' Eucinetus'' Germar, 1818 * '' Euscaphurus'' Casey, 1885 * '' Noteucinetus'' Bullians & Leschen, 2005 * '' Nycteus'' Latreille, 1829 * '' Peltocoleops'' Ponomarenko, 1990 * '' Subulistomella'' Sakai, 1980 * †'' Huaxiacinectus'' Hong 1995 Huachi- ...

Scirtoidea
Scirtoidea is a superfamily of beetles. It is traditionally considered to consist of four families: Clambidae, Decliniidae Decliniidae is a family of beetles belonging to Scirtoidea. It contains the single genus ''Declinia'' with two species, ''D. relicta'' and ''D. versicolor'', found in the Russian Far East and Japan, respectively. Little is known of their ecology, ..., Eucinetidae and Scirtidae. However, genetic studies have suggested that Clambidae and Eucinetidae belong to a separate superfamily Clamboidea, which also includes Derodontidae. Scirtoidea and Clamboidea are the two earliest diverging lineages of living polyphagans. Two extinct families have also been assigned to this group: *† Mesocinetidae Kirejtshuk and Ponomarenko 2010 Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous (Asia) *† Elodophthalmidae Kirejtshuk and Azar 2008 monotypic, Lebanese amber, Barremian References External links Tree of Life Beetle superfamilies {{Scirtoidea-stub ...
