چکیده
The subgenus Cladoconnus Reitter, 1909 of the megadiverse genus Euconnus Thomson, 1859 is redescribed and revised for the Balkan Peninsula, Turkey and Caucasus. The following species are described: Euconnus (Cladoconnus) gagranicus sp. nov., E. (C.) ispartaensis sp. nov., E. (C.) meybohmi sp. nov., E. (C.) brachati sp. nov. and E. (C.) croaticus sp. nov. Lectotypes are designated for E. (C.) anatolicus Franz, 1997, E. (C.) dodecanicus Franz, 1966, E. (C.) robustus Reitter, 1882 and E. (C.) winneguthi Apfelbeck, 1907. Euconnus (Cladoconnus) major (Motschulsky, 1851) is placed as a junior synonym of E. (C.) motschulskii (Motschulsky, 1837). Two species groups, schlosseri and denticornis are defined; identification keys to the groups and species are given.

Comparative morphology and taxonomy of Sciacharis s. str., Chathamaenus Franz and Maorinus Franz (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Scydmaeninae).
Sciacharis s. str. is redefined based on the morphology of its type species, S. fulva Broun, and compared with sympatric genera Chathamaenus Franz (endemic to New Zealand) and Maorinus Franz (known from New Zealand and Australia). As a result, Chathamaenus is placed as a junior synonym of Sciacharis s. str., and Maorinus, originally described as a subgenus of Euconnus Thomson (under a preoccupi...
متن کاملTaxonomic status of Cyrtoscydmus described by C. Schaufuss from the Philippines (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Scydmaeninae).
In 1891 Camillo Schaufuss described two new species of Cyrtoscydmini from the Philippines and placed them in a genus Cyrtoscydmus Motschulsky, 1870: C. fundaebraccatus and C. manillae. Later authors (e.g., Csiki 1919; Newton & Franz 1998) treated Cyrtoscydmus as a subgenus of Stenichnus Thomson, 1859 and currently these names are synonyms (Meybohm 2004). Csiki (1919) lists the species of Schauf...
