Description

Listing of all species and subspecies of beetles known to occur in Canada and Alaska along with their synonyms. Names are arranged alphabetically under the respective genus-group names, with valid genus-group and family-group names listed in phylogenetic order. Species distributions are presented in tabular form, indicating the presence or absence of the taxa in each province and territory, in Labrador, and in Alaska. Introduced and holarctic species are highlighted. References to pertinent identification keys are indicated under the corresponding supraspecific taxon. A brief introduction is given for every family treated and an index to all supraspecific names is included.
