  Polyphaga - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The internal classification of Polyphaga involves several superfamilies or series, whose constituents are relatively stable, although some smaller families (whose rank even is disputed) are allocated to different clades by different authors.
Large superfamilies include Hydrophiloidea, Staphylinoidea, Scarabaeoidea, Buprestoidea, Byrrhoidea, Elateroidea, and Bostrichoidea.
The infraorder Cucujiformia includes the vast majority of phytophagous (plant-eating) beetles, united by cryptonephric Malpighian tubules of the normal type, a cone ommatidium with open rhabdom, and lack of functional spiracles on the eighth abdominal segment.

Larvae of Staphylinoid Beetles (Insecta: Coleoptera: Staphylinoidea): Morphology, Chaetotaxy, and Phylogenetic Classification
The applicant visited both the Field Museum in Chicago and Institut für Spezielle Zoologie in Jena and was granted with the permission to borrow all the necessary material from the former institution.
The second goal is to supply larval morphological information on the family-level relationships within Staphylinoidea for the current project of the proposed supervisor (Dr. Beutel, DFG BE1789/2-1) by extensive analysis of larval morphology of the representatives of the outgroup taxa (see Appendix A) and provide a preliminary hypothesis of their branching pattern.

Higher classification, phylogeny, comparative morphology and evolution of beetle groups Staphylinoidea and Hydrophiloidea (including Histeroidea), with current projects centering on the families Staphylinidae, Leiodidae and Silphidae; theory and practice of systematics, especially as applied to large and poorly known groups.
Historical biogeography, especially of southern temperate regions, as illustrated by selected archaic groups of Staphylinoidea and Hydrophiloidea; associated faunal surveys of Australia, New Zealand and Chile, and associated systematic studies.

Terminal abdominal segment modified into a conical to tubular pygopod.
Of the semi-aquatic staphylinids (Polyphaga: Staphylinoidea), Stenus (Steninae) lives in marshes and at the edges of streams and ponds, and is predatory; whilst Bledius (Oxytelinae) burrows in moist sand adjacent to rivers and lakes and feed on algae and diatoms.
Other staphylinids may also be collected adjacent to water courses, notably Paederus (Paederinae).

Articulated urogomphi usually prominent, abdomen lacking other processes/gills.
Hydraenids (Polyphaga: Staphylinoidea) are found in a variety of riparian and littoral habitats including streams, waterfalls, wet rock faces, ponds, marine rock pools, seabird nests and inland salt lakes, however larvae tend to be less truly aquatic than the adults, favouring damp riparian habitats.
Most hydraenids are phytophagous, though some larvae may be more detritivorous or even predacious.
