# Porrostoma

Porrostoma is a genus of net-winged beetles in the family Lycidae, occurring in Australia and New Zealand.

## Taxonomy

Most of the >100 species in Porrostoma were formerly placed in other genera such as Metriorrhynchus, and as a result, the spelling of the species names is subject to much confusion in the literature and online sources (e.g.) but under ICZN Article 31 the correct spelling of all adjectival names requires agreement with the neuter gender of the genus, while all names that are nouns (or potentially nouns; e.g., eremita, eucerus, frater, hexastichus, monticola, nigricauda, paradoxa, quinquecavus, rhipidius, and trichocerus) must retain their original spelling, and do not change.
