  • Gehringiinae

    Gehringiinae is a small subfamily of ground beetles (Carabidae) containing approximately 20 described species across two genera: Gehringia and Zuphioides. Members are minute to small beetles, generally less than 3 mm in length, adapted to specialized microhabitats. The subfamily was established to accommodate taxa with distinctive morphological features that separate them from other carabid lineages. They are among the smallest carabid beetles and are rarely encountered due to their cryptic habits.
