Basic Information
Nitidulidae
-
The sap beetles, also known as Nitidulidae, are a family of beetles. They are small (2–6 mm) ovoid, usually dull-coloured beetles, with knobbed antennae. Some have red or yellow spots or bands. They feed mainly on decaying vegetable matter, over-ripe fruit, and sap. Some sap beetle species coexist with fungi species and live in habitats of coniferous trees. These fungi-dependent beetles are found in all across Europe and Siberia and are the biggest nitidulid species known in those areas. Other species like the Australian Chychramptodes murrayi are known to feed on scale insects. There are a few pest species, like the strawberry sap beetle that infest crops in Brazil between the months of August and February.

PRJNA1484582 SRX34130098 SRP714367 insect RNA-Seq of Aethina tumida: ovary RNA was extracted from ovarian tissues of adult small hive beetle (Aethina tumida). Three biological replicate control samples were constructed for mRNA transcriptome sequencing using PolyA enrichment library construction strategy, paired-end RNA-seq was performed on Illumina platform.
