''Sericoda'' is a genus of harpaline ground beetles. They are native to the Holarctic. Their habit resembles some members of the related genus ''Agonum'', but they are generally smaller. The origin of ''Sericoda'' is apparently North America, with the Central American genus ''Elliptoleus'' the closest living relative. ''Sericoda'' beetles are pyrophilous, meaning that they are attracted by burned areas after forest fires. This means they are found in large numbers the summer following the fires, after which their numbers decrease again. Species include: * ''Sericoda balli'' J.Schmidt, 2008 * ''Sericoda bembidioides'' Kirby, 1837 * ''Sericoda bogemannii'' (Gyllenhal, 1813) * ''Sericoda ceylonica'' (Motschulsky, 1859) * ''Sericoda lissoptera'' (Chaudoir, 1854) * ''Sericoda montana'' Liebherr, 1991 * ''Sericoda obsoleta'' (Say, 1823) * ''Sericoda quadripunctata'' (Degeer, 1774) ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sericoda」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
