Panagaeini
Panagaeini is a tribe of hairy ground beetles in the family Carabidae. There are at least 3 genera and more than 30 described species in Panagaeini. Genera These three genera belong to the tribe Panagaeini: * ''Micrixys'' LeConte, 1854 * ''Panagaeus'' Latreille, 1802 * ''Tefflus ''Tefflus'' is a genus of large, black and flightless Afrotropical ground beetles in the tribe Panagaeini.

Tefflus
''Tefflus'' is a genus of large, black and flightless Afrotropical ground beetles in the tribe Panagaeini. They are broadly similar to the Anthiini ('oogpisters'), but are not colourful, and have a six-sided and flattish pronotum. The distinct longitudinal carinae (ridges) on their elytra are separated by two rows of punctures running along the striae (grooves). Males have some segments of the forelegs enlarged. They are solitary and mostly nocturnal hunters, that move about at a brisk pace. They have strong mandibles that can inflict a serious bite, and prey on a variety of invertebrates. The last revision of the genus was undertaken in 1946. Species Some 14 to 15 species are native to the Afrotropics: * ''Tefflus angustipes'' Kolbe, 1903 * ''Tefflus brevicostatus'' Quedenfeldt, 1883 * '' Tefflus camerunus'' Kolbe, 1903 * ''Tefflus carinatus'' Klug, 1853 – Malawi, South Africa (length: c.26–37 mm) * ''Tefflus hamiltonii'' Bates, 1871 * ''Tefflus juvenilis'' Gerstaecke ...

Carabidae
Ground beetles are a large, cosmopolitan family of beetles, the Carabidae, with more than 40,000 species worldwide, around 2,000 of which are found in North America and 2,700 in Europe. As of 2015, it is one of the 10 most species-rich animal families. They belong to the Adephaga. Members of the family are primarily carnivorous, but some members are phytophagous or omnivorous. Description and ecology Although their body shapes and coloring vary somewhat, most are shiny black or metallic and have ridged wing covers ( elytra). The elytra are fused in some species, particularly the large Carabinae, rendering the beetles unable to fly. The species '' Mormolyce phyllodes'' is known as violin beetle due to their peculiarly shaped elytra. All carabids except the quite primitive flanged bombardier beetles (Paussinae) have a groove on their fore leg tibiae bearing a comb of hairs used for cleaning their antennae.

Harpalinae
Harpalinae is a huge subfamily of ground beetles that contains 20,000 species or ~6,400 spp. in 24 tribes worldwide, according to others. A rarely used common name for the subfamily is the harp beetles. The Harpalinae contain the most apomorphic ground beetles, displaying a wide range of forms and behaviors. Some are, rare among ground beetles, omnivores or even herbivores. Many closely related subfamilies have been treated as subordinate taxa of the Harpalinae by various authors. Among these are the Dryptinae, Lebiinae (including Cyclosominae, Mormolycinae, Odacanthinae, Perigoninae), Licininae (including Chlaeniinae, Oodinae), Orthogoniinae, Panagaeinae, Platyninae, Pseudomorphinae, Pterostichinae (including Zabrinae). Here, they are considered independent families within the harpaline (''sensu lato'') assemblage, and this is also tentatively assumed for the enigmatic monotypic genus '' Ginema''.
