Pentagonicitae Platynitae Pterostichitae (disputed) and see textHarpalinae is a huge
subfamily ofground beetle s. Among the more than 20,000 describedspecies in thisclade are thesun beetle s ("Amara") and theviolin beetle s ("Mormolyce"). The Harpalinae contain the mostapomorph ic ground beetles, dsplaying a wide range of forms and behaviors. Some are, rare among ground beetles,omnivore s or evenherbivore s.ystematics
Many formerly independent families are now subordinate
taxa of the Harpalinae. Among these are the Chlaeniinae, Cyclosominae, Dryptinae, Lebiinae, Licininae, Mormolycinae, Odacanthinae, Oodinae, Panagaeinae, Perigoninae, Platyninae, Pseudomorphinae, Pterostichinae and Zabrinae.At least 4 large and a number of
monotypic supertribes can be distinguished. The "Pterostichitae " on the other hand seem to be, as presently delimited, aparaphyletic assemblage, but probably also contains a number of tribes closer to each other than to other Harpalinae. In addition, there are a number of tribes of basal or uncertain position: [CWD (2008)]
