Cucujoidea is a superfamily of beetles. This group formerly included all of the families now included in the superfamily Coccinelloidea. [1] They include some fungus beetles and a diversity of lineages of "bark beetles" unrelated to the "true" bark beetles , which are weevils (superfamily Curculionoidea).

2015年8月6日 · A large-scale phylogenetic study is presented for Cucujoidea (Coleoptera), a diverse superfamily of beetles that historically has been taxonomically difficult. This study is the most comprehensive analysis of cucujoid taxa to date, with DNA sequence data sampled from eight genes (four nuclear, four mitochondrial) for 384 coleopteran taxa ...

2015年6月10日 · Herein we present the results of a rigorous molecular phylogenetic analysis of Cucujidae s.l. using maximum-likelihood and Bayesian analyses of seven genes. Representatives of over half of the families of Cucujoidea (excluding the cerylonid series), as well as a broad sampling of Silvanidae and Laemophloeidae, were analysed.

Of the six cucujiform superfamilies, Cucujoidea is the most problematic with regard to classification and no synapomorphies supporting its monophyly have been identified (Leschen etal., 2005; Leschen & ́Slipi ́nski, 2010).

The beetle superfamily Cucujoidea includes pests, beneficial species, and common elements of agricultural and forest ecosystems. However, the taxonomic state of Cucujoidea is poor and little is known about the biology of most cucujoid species.

2023年8月3日 · An online resource devoted to North American insects, spiders and their kin, offering identification, images, and information.

Cucujoidea is a diverse superfamily of beetles, with an intricate taxonomy and varied ecological roles, particularly associated with decay processes and fungi. Their physical characteristics and habits make identification and understanding of their roles in ecosystems crucial.
