Bedelia insignis Lefèvre, 1875 |
Bedelia is a genus of leaf beetles in the subfamily Eumolpinae. It is generally distributed in the Caucasus, Central Asia and East Asia. It was first described by Édouard Lefèvre in 1875, for two species from Persia collected by Ernest Marie Louis Bedel (which are now considered to be the same species). It was considered by Lefèvre to be a neighbour of Chloropterus.
