Ranolus
Ranolus is a genus of beetles in the family Dermestidae from Southeast Asia and Oceania. It was originally described as a subgenus of Attagenus, containing only the species Ranolus cavernicola. It was later found to be a separate genus, and was placed in its own tribe, Ranolini, along with Orphilodes. A second species, Ranolus tenebricola, was described by Jiří Háva in 2014. Orphilodes was later synonymized with Ranolus.
