Abdomen broad at base and narrowing posteriorly, length of dorsally visible part along midline 1.34 mm, maximum width 1.25 mm. Tergite IV longest, more than twice as long as tergite V. Sternite IX (Fig. 2 H) semi-membranous and elongate.

03ED1964735BDC58FD6C9FDCFC45274D.taxon	etymology	Etymology. The specific epithet is a noun combined from Latin ‘ flamma ’ (flame) and ‘ cornus ’ (horn), referring to the unique modification of the male antennomere 9.	en	Yin, Zi-Wei, Zhang, Yu-Qing (2019): First Species of Labomimus Sharp (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Pselaphinae) from Nepalese Himalaya. The Coleopterists Bulletin 73 (3): 722-726, DOI: 10.1649/0010-065X-73.3.722, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1649/0010-065x-73.3.722
03ED1964735BDC58FD6C9FDCFC45274D.taxon	discussion	Comparative Notes. The male of L. flammicornis is most similar to those of two Chinese congeners, L. qiujianyuae from Xizang (Zhang et al. 2019 a: figs. 19 A, 20) and Labomimus wuchaoi Zhang, Yin and Li from Yunnan (Zhang et al. 2019 a: figs. 22 A, 23). These species share angulate anterior corners of the pronotum, a strongly expanded antennomere 9, and similar antennal clubs (Fig. 3). Labomimus flammicornis can be readily separated by the antennomere 9 being broadly excavated on the dorsal surface, the excavation with tufted setae of unique shape and position, and antennomere 10 strongly oblique, transverse, and expanded mesally. In contrast, antennomeres 9 and 10 of L. qiujianyuae (Fig. 3 B) and L. wuchaoi (Fig. 3 C) are of distinctly different shapes and structures (i. e., antennomere 9 of L. qiujianyuae is simply elongate and that of L. wuchaoi is roundly triangle; antennomere 10 of L. qiujianyuae and L. wuchaoi is much less expanded, and the shape of the excavation and the placement of tufted setae are different). Additionally, the profemur of L. flammicornis bears a large, blunt ventral spine (simple in L. qiujianyuae and L. wuchaoi), the protibia has a preapical tubercle (protibia with an apical spur in L. qiujianyuae; simple in L. wuchaoi), and the median lobe of the aedeagus is narrowed apically and has a round apex (median lobe broadening apically in L. qiujianyuae; apically broadened and shallowly forked in L. wuchaoi).	en	Yin, Zi-Wei, Zhang, Yu-Qing (2019): First Species of Labomimus Sharp (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Pselaphinae) from Nepalese Himalaya.
