Description

Genus Barycnemis Förster, 1869

Barycnemis is a predominantly Holarctic genus with 14 species in the Nearctic region, including Mexico (Khalaim 2002b; Horstmann 2010), and 26 species in the Palaearctic region (Horstmann 1981; Khalaim 2004, 2015b, 2015c; Balueva et al. 2013a). Beyond the Holarctic region, the genus is known from Central America (Khalaim & Broad 2012), Australia (Khalaim 2015d) and tropical Asia (Khalaim 2017c).

Five species of Barycnemis occur in Japan (Khalaim 2015c; Khalaim & Tereshkin 2019): B. naganoensis Khalaim, B. sugonyaevi Khalaim, B. tobiasi Khalaim and two species listed below.

Very little is known about host range of Barycnemis. In Europe, the genus has been recorded from the coleopteran genera Byrrhus L. (Byrrhidae) and Bledius Leach (Staphylinidae) (Horstmann 1981; Wyatt & Foster 1989), and in the Nearctic region one species was reared from a Pissodes species (Curculionidae) (Horstmann 2010).
