Euzona is a genus of tiger beetles found in Australia. It was formed from the breakup of the Cicindela genus, and just like Cylindera, is in a state of dispute. Scientists do not agree whether the genus should be considered as a subgenus of Cicindela or kept in its current taxonomic rank. The genus contains the following species:[1][2][3]
- Euzona aeneodorsis Sloane, 1917
- Euzona albolineata Macleay, 1888
- Euzona aurita Sloane, 1904
- Euzona cyanonota Sumlin, 1997
- Euzona gilesi Sloane, 1914
- Euzona levitetragramma Freitag, 1979
- Euzona tetragramma Boisduval, 1835
- Euzona trivittata Macleay, 1888
