Age estimation is crucial for investigating animal populations in the past and present. Visual examination of tooth wear and eruption is one of the most common ageing methods in zooarchaeology, wildlife management, palaeontology, and veterinary research. Such approaches are particularly advantageous because they are non-destructive, can be completed using photographs, and do not require specialized training.

- A new genus called Cubanthonomus Anderson has been established to classify the Cuban beetle species Cleogonus grossulus, which was previously uncertain in its taxonomic placement.
- The genus features distinctive characteristics such as a constricted head behind the eyes, a rounded body shape, a seven-segmented compact antennal funicle, and specific structures on its legs and body.
- Specimens of this genus have been found in tropical semi-deciduous forests, but there is currently no information on what plants they might be associated with as hosts.

The originally monobasic genus Crostis Casey, 1922 (type species Crostis subexplanata Casey, 1922 from Brazil) is redefined based on two named and approximately 15 unnamed species occurring between the southern United States and northern Argentina. Three oblong-ovate northern species here grouped informally as the Crostis boreas species group are described: Crostis boreas Prena Anderson new species from Arkansas and Texas in the U.S.
