Microstagetus
Microstagetus is a genus of minute hooded beetles in the family Corylophidae, established by Wollaston in 1861. The genus is poorly known, with very few documented observations—only three records on iNaturalist as of the data cutoff. Members of this genus are among the smallest beetles, reflecting the general characteristics of Corylophidae. The scarcity of records suggests either genuine rarity, cryptic habits, or undercollecting due to their minute size.
