New polymorphic species of the genus Menimus Sharp (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae: Gnathidiini) from Borneo and Sumatra

The high morphological plasticity of the epigean species of Menimus should be re-examined in a more comprehensive study of all Gnathidiini, not only with morphological but also with molecular data.

Study on the Relationship between Richness and Morphological Diversity of Higher Taxa in the Darkling Beetles (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae)

This study found that genus/species richness in subfamilies Pimelinae and Stenochiinae was positively correlated with the change trend of MD, and the correlation between the MD of elytron and taxa richness gradually decreased from the tribe-level to the genus- level to the species-level test.
