Megacephalini is a tribe of big-headed tiger beetles in the family Cicindelidae.
Genera
[edit | edit source]These genera belong definitively to the tribe Megacephalini, as they are groups often placed within the type genus Megacephala itself:
- Grammognatha Motschulsky, 1850
- Megacephala Latreille, 1802
- Metriocheila Thomson, 1857
- Phaeoxantha Chaudoir, 1850
- Pseudotetracha Fleutiaux, 1894
- Tetracha Hope, 1838 (metallic tiger beetles)
These genera are of less certain placement or status:[1]
- Aniara Hope, 1838 (probable synonym of Tetracha)
- Callidema Guérin-Méneville, 1843 (unrelated to other megacephalines)[2]
- Cheiloxya Guerin-Meneville, 1855 (genetically unrelated to other megacephalines)
- †Cretotetracha Zhao et al., 2019 (fossil taxon of uncertain affinity)
- Oxycheila Dejean, 1825 (genetically unrelated to other megacephalines)
- †Oxycheilopsis Cassola & Werner, 2004 (fossil taxon of uncertain affinity)
- Pseudoxycheila Guerin-Meneville, 1839 (genetically unrelated to other megacephalines)
