In botany, "Cladodes" may refer to a synonym of the genus Alchornea or to the plural of "cladode". Cladodes is a genus of firefly beetles. It used to be included in the subfamily Amydetinae, which is probably a highly artificial paraphyletic assemblage however. Thus, the genus is moved to the Lampyrinae for the time being. Species within this genus include: Cladodes flabellatus Solier in Gay, 1849 Cladodes malleri Pic, 1935 References Lampyridae Lampyridae genera Bioluminescent insects Cladode A green leaf-like plant shoot.
