Subgenera and Selected Species
While some subgenera are accepted by most authors (e.g. Europhilus, Olisares and of course Agonum), others are of disputed validity. Moreover, subgeneric separation has historically been mostly focussed on European and Japanese species.

Famous quotes containing the words selected and/or species:
“She was so overcome by the splendor of his achievement that she took him into the closet and selected a choice apple and delivered it to him, along with an improving lecture upon the added value and flavor a treat took to itself when it came without sin through virtuous effort. And while she closed with a Scriptural flourish, he “hooked” a doughnut.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Not only does every animal live at the expense of some other animal or plant, but the very plants are at war.... The individuals of a species are like the crew of a foundered ship, and none but good swimmers have a chance of reaching the land.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
