Oodini
Tribe of beetles
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Oodini is a ground beetle tribe in the subfamily Harpalinae. Oodines are found worldwide (with highest diversity in tropical Africa) and are generally associated with standing water.[1] This tribe contains more than 400 species arrayed in 43 genera.[2] Beetles in Oodini are distinguishable from other members of Carabidae by a combination of two characters: a laterally coadunate metepisternum (a feature of the exoskeleton), and an elytral ridge formed by the fusion of intervals 7 and 8.[3]
