Aulonogyrus is a genus of the tumble beetle family(Gyrinidae). It occurs in Europe with two types; in Central Europe only Aulonogyrus concinnus is native.
features
The beetles have a hairless body with a yellow margin. The cover wings have 11 matt furrows finely chagrined (scar pattern-like) at the bottom. The pronotum has no transverse furrow.
The larvae differ from those of the genus Gyrinus in their broader and more compact body shape, shorter gill appendages and the four-toothed head shield in the middle.
