Guides

  • Charhyphus

    Charhyphus is a genus of rove beetles in the family Staphylinidae, established by Sharp in 1887. The genus contains five described species, all restricted to North America. Species range from the southwestern United States (Arizona) to broader distributions across the continent. The genus is part of the megadiverse rove beetle family, though specific ecological and behavioral traits remain poorly documented.

  • Edaphus

    Edaphus is the largest genus in the rove beetle subfamily Euaesthetinae, comprising approximately 600 described species worldwide. The genus exhibits cosmopolitan distribution with particularly high diversity in the Palaearctic and Oriental regions. Members are small, typically soil-dwelling beetles associated with forest floor habitats. The Korean fauna has expanded from a single known species to six through recent systematic surveys.

  • Euaesthetini

    Euaesthetini is a tribe of rove beetles (Staphylinidae) within the subfamily Euaesthetinae, established by Thomson in 1859. Members are small, often minute beetles characterized by distinctive antennal and mouthpart structures. The tribe is distinguished from the related Stenina by specific morphological features of the head and antennae. Euaesthetini contains multiple genera distributed across various biogeographic regions.

  • Euaesthetus brevipennis

    Euaesthetus brevipennis is a species of rove beetle in the family Staphylinidae, described by Casey in 1884. It belongs to the subfamily Euaesthetinae, a group of small staphylinid beetles often associated with forest floor habitats. The species epithet 'brevipennis' refers to its short-winged condition. Current taxonomic status is ambiguous synonym, suggesting potential taxonomic uncertainty or consolidation with related species.

  • Euaesthetus similis

    Euaesthetus similis is a rove beetle species in the family Staphylinidae, first described by Casey in 1884. It belongs to the subfamily Euaesthetinae, a group of small staphylinids often associated with forest litter and soil habitats. The species has a broad transcontinental distribution across North America, with records from Canada through the United States to Mexico.

  • Fenderia capizzii

    Fenderia capizzii is a species of rove beetle in the family Staphylinidae, described by Hatch in 1957. It belongs to the subfamily Euaesthetinae, a group of small staphylinids often associated with forest floor habitats. The species is known from Oregon, USA, and appears to have a restricted distribution within the Pacific Northwest.

  • Stictocranius puncticeps

    Stictocranius puncticeps is a species of rove beetle (Staphylinidae) in the subfamily Euaesthetinae, described by John Lawrence LeConte in 1866. It belongs to the tribe Stictocraniini, a group of small rove beetles characterized by distinctive cranial and antennal features. The species has been recorded across eastern North America from Canada to the southeastern United States.
