Trachelostenini
Tribe of beetles
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Trachelostenini is a tribe of darkling beetles in the family Tenebrionidae. There are at least three genera in Trachelostenini.[1][2] It was historically ranked as the family Trachelostenidae,[3] but a 2015 study sunk the family into the tenebrionid (darkling beetle) subfamily Tenebrioninae.[4]
