In this study, total of 70 specimens the genus Bledius Leach, 1819 (Staphylinidae: Oxytelinae) were collected from different regions Turkey between 2006 and 2020. As a result 10 species determined study areas in Turkey. Among them, (Astycops) opacus (Block, 1799), B. (Bargus) secessus Bondroit, 1912 (Elbius) diota (Schiødte, 1866) are recorded for first time addition, subterraneus Erichson, 183...

Trichophyinae is one of the smallest subfamilies megadiverse rove-beetle family Staphylinidae, with only 18 species in single extant genus Trichophya Mannerheim. Here we describe first fossil representative mid-Cretaceous amber from Kachin, northern Myanmar. †Trichophya minor sp. nov. unusual having non-filiform thick antennae, similar to T. antennalis Cameron, 1932 India, but this new can read...

All genus-group names first proposed or made available for the first time in the third edition of Dejean's catalogue of his beetle collection are recorded. The following 18 names are made available for the first time in Dejean's third catalogue: Batoscelis Dejean [Carabidae], Laphyra Dejean [Carabidae], Sauriodes Dejean [Staphylinidae], Abrobapta Dejean [Buprestidae], Selagis Dejean [Buprestida...

Agaricomycetes, or mushrooms, are familiar, conspicuous and morphologically diverse Fungi. Most Agaricomycete fruiting bodies are ephemeral, and their fossil record is limited. Here we report diverse gilled mushrooms (Agaricales) and mycophagous rove beetles (Staphylinidae) from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber, the latter belonging to Oxyporinae, modern members of which exhibit an obligate associa...

Laboulbenia littoralis is described from the halobiont Cafius xantholoma (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae); it previously was misidentified and not properly documented. Morphologically the new species belongs to a group of carabidicolous taxa similar to Laboulbenia pedicellata and especially Laboulbenia slackensis. It is generally accepted that the specificity of Laboulbeniales is based on their need...
