Subgroups of the order Coleoptera

(subgroupstheordercoleoptera,subgroups the order coleoptera,subgroupsthe order coleoptera,subgroups theorder coleoptera,subgroups the ordercoleoptera)

The extraordinary number of species of beetle poses special problems for classification , with somefamilies consisting of thousands of species and needing further division into subfamilies and tribes. Subfamilies and tribes, andsynonyms, are only shown here to preserve entries from the previous edit of this table.
