133. FAMILY COLYDIIDAE<br />

The cylindrical bark beetles or colydiid beetles<br />

These beetles occur in dead wood, under bark,<br />

in leaf litter, <strong>and</strong> sometimes <strong>on</strong> fungi. Some are<br />

predators <strong>on</strong> wood-boring beetles, <strong>and</strong> some feed <strong>on</strong><br />

fungus spores <strong>and</strong> hyphae (Slipinski <strong>and</strong> Lawrence<br />

1997). The higher classificati<strong>on</strong> is used differently<br />

in different sources (Ivie <strong>and</strong> Slipinski 1990). The<br />

following are placed in Zopheridae in Slipinski <strong>and</strong><br />

Lawrence (1999).<br />
