Group of beetles From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Cantharoid beetles are a deprecated non-monophyletic taxonomic grouping (formerly superfamily Cantharoidea[2]), whose former members are now mostly within the currently accepted superfamily Elateroidea, and some (the former families Drilidae and Omalisidae) are now within Elateridae. One former family, Cneoglossidae, is now in the superfamily Byrrhoidea.
