The author provides a comprehensive revision of the genera within these groups, including detailed morphological descriptions, illustrations, and keys for identification. Beyond the taxonomic treatment, the book presents a significant contribution to the higher-level phylogeny of the Brentidae superfamily (s. lato) and a detailed biogeographical analysis of the Apionidae, exploring their distribution patterns and evolutionary history. It serves as a fundamental, authoritative reference for specialists in coleopterology and insect systematics. -- "The genera of Rhadinocybinae and Myrmacicelinae of the Australo-Pacific are revised based on the material of over 3,600 specimens representing ca. 360 species, most of them undescribed. Diagnoses, descriptions and illustrations for each genus are provided. Keys to the subfamilies and supertribes of Apionidae and to the genera of Rhadinocybinae are given.".…
