Microdera

***Microdera*** er en slekt av skyggebiller der de fleste av artene er knyttet til tørre miljøer.

## Utseende
Middelsstore (ca. 8 millimeter), avlange, blankt brunlige til svarte skyggebiller.

## Levevis
Disse billene har et svært tykt og nokså vanntett hudpanser, og er derfor godt skikket til å overleve under svært tørre vilkår - de fleste lever i ørkener og halvørkener.

## Utbredelse
Slekten er utbredt i Kaukasus og steppeområder i Russland og videre østover til Sentral-Asia.
