Review of the family Bostrichidae (Coleoptera) of Korea

A new Oriental genus of bostrichid beetle (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae: Xyloperthini), a new synonym and a lectotype designation for Octodesmus episternalis (Lesne, 1901)

“…pusillus Liu & Beaver, gen. et sp. nov. Park et al (2015) have recently synonymised Calophagus Lesne, 1902with Xylothrips Lesne, 1901. Hence, the description of Octomeristes gen. nov. keeps the number of genera in the tribe Xyloperthini at thirty-four (Borowski & Węgrzynowicz 2007).…”

“…The Bostrichinae comprises three tribes, of which the most genus-rich is the Xyloperthini with 33 genera (Borowski & Węgrzynowicz 2007;Park et al 2015). The tribe is characterized by the lamelliform intercoxal process of the first abdominal ventrite, which is visible only as a narrow carina and does not have a ventral face, …”

A review of the powderpost beetle genera Xylothrips Lesne, 1901 and Calophagus Lesne, 1902 (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae: Bostrichinae: Xyloperthini)

“…The tribe Xyloperthini Lesne, 1921 is the most species-rich in Bostrichidae Latreille, 1802, and currently includes 33 genera (Borowski & Węgrzynowicz 2007, 2019Park et al 2015;Liu et al 2016;Liu & Beaver 2017). The tribe has a world-wide distribution, but the individual genera are mostly confined to a single zoogeographical region or subregion (Borowski & Węgrzynowicz 2007).…”

Three Coleopterous Tree Borers Newly Recorded in Egypt

“…Several authors allover the world gave description, taxonomical keys of subfamilies, genera and species of family Bostrichidae (e.g. Chujo, 1936Chujo, -1940Fisher, 1950;Badawy and Naguib, 1961;Moussa, 1977;Carrillo et al, 2001;Ivie, 2002;Filho et al, 2006;Liu et al, 2006;Woodruff and Thomas 2006;De La Puebla et al 2007;Beiriger 2010;Liu 2010;Azmi et al 2011;Liu and Schnitzer, 2011;Bonsignore, 2012;Lopez-Perez, 2012;Luna Murillo and Obregon, (2013;Kollar, 2014;Hava and Chaboo, 2015;Nardi and Mifsud, 2015;Park et al, 2015;Liu et al, 2016 andWylie andBrenton, 2016).…”
