Germarica is a genus of metallic wood-boring beetles in the family Buprestidae. There are at least three described species in Germarica, found in Australia.[1][2][3]
Species
These three species belong to the genus Germarica:
- Germarica blackburni Obenberger, 1923
- Germarica carteri Obenberger, 1923
- Germarica lilliputana (Thomson, 1879)
Note on the date: Although Blackburn's paper was "read" on 4 October, 1887, the journal in which the paper was contained was not published until 1888.[4] The authority should therefore properly be "Blackburn 1888", as listed in Nomenclator Zoologicus.
