            <p>Type species.</p>
            <p> Chlaenius nitidulus Dejean, 1826</p>
            <p>Diagnosis.</p>
            <p>Small to medium-sized specimens (11-13 mm) for Oriental chlaeniines, with the following characters: habitus semi-elongate; color mostly olivaceous; integument punctate and pubescent, pubescence denser on sides of elytra and on sides of abdomen, less developed, scattered or lacking on rest of body; head with conspicuously large eyes and minute tempora; penultimate segment of labial palpomere without setae; antennomeres 1-3 lighter than other antennomeres, scape and pedicel glabrous, antennomere 3 with a few fine and scattered setae; pronotum subquadrate, without protruded angles, with basal margin laterally oblique towards posterior angle; elytra more densely pubescent and punctate laterally and apically, with only a few hairs basally and on disc; striae 1-7 of elytra punctiform; striae 5-7 obliterated anteriorly; stria 8 linear, somewhat more impressed than other striae; mesocoxa with two long setae, one lateral seta and one posteromedial seta; sterna 4-5 with pair of long ambulatory setae, sternum 3 without such setae; last abdominal sternum with two pores in male, four pores in female; male protarsomeres 1-3 longer than wide and with protarsomere 1 longer than each of following two protarsomeres separately; tarsomere 5 of all legs setose ventrally.</p>
            <p>Taxonomic position.</p>
            <p> LaFerté-Sénectére (1851: 274) proposed  Hololeius for  Chlaenius nitidulus Dejean, 1826 , due to: 1, pronotum at the base narrower than the base of elytra; 2, lack of pubescence; 3, antennomere 3 not longer than subsequent antennomeres. He placed the genus in tribe  
Oodini 
LaFerte-Senectere
, 1851
 , concluding:  “C’est-à-dire qu’à l’exception de la largeur du corselet, cet insecte  réunit tout les  charactèrs à l’aide desquels nous avons  séparé les Oodites des  Chlaœnides.” . In terms of the present knowledge, I can state that the first and third characters are true, but not the second one. When examined it was found that  Hololeius ceylanicus has the integument partially and diffusely punctate and pubescent, both dorsally and ventrally. This state is opposed to one of the basic features of the  Oodini , namely the lack of pubescence and lack of extensive punctation of the integument (Bousquet 1996: 448). Hence, the three characters  LaFerté-Sénectére mentioned are typical of  Chlaeniini . The length and ratio of antennomere 3 to the following antennomeres is not of tribal significance. </p>
            <p> Hololeius is usually placed in the beginning of the genera of  Chlaeniini (Lorenz 1998, 2005), presumably because of some odd features that it possesses. Actually, the genus combines characters distinctive for either one or the other tribe and the importance of each is discussed below (see  ‘Affinities’ under  Bamaroodes gen. n. ,  ‘Discussion’ ). </p>

            <p> Holosoma opacum Semenov, 1889</p>
            <p>Historical remarks.</p>
            <p> Semenov (1889: 388) proposed the generic name  Holosoma for  Holosoma opacum from South Gansu, China. The author placed the genus in "subtribum Oodidarum, prope genera  Oodes Bon. et  Simous Chaud , collocandum" (ibid.: 389). This tribal placement has been subsequently accepted (Jakobson 1906: 310-311). In 1923, Heller (1923: 66) described the genus  Parahololius Heller, 1923 , for  Parahololius weigoldi Heller, 1923 , from Sichuan, China. He placed this genus in  Chlaeniini , near to  Hololeius . Shortly afterwards, Semenov (1927: 232) proposed [not Basilewsky 1953, as Kirschenhofer 1995: 77 stated] the synonymy of  Parahololius and  Holosoma and emended the former name to  Parololius [according to the Article 32.2.3 of ICZN 1999, the change of the original name to  Parololius is an "unjustified emendation].  Jedlička (1931: 21-22) described  
Holosoma rambouseki 
Jedlicka
, 1931
 from Sichuan, China. Andrewes (1935) described  Chlaenius hedini Andrewes, 1935 , from North Gansu and Southeast Sichuan, China. He noted, "It does not appear to be nearly allied to any other Asiatic species." [of  Chlaenius Bonelli, 1810 ].  Jedlička (1936: 51) described  
Holosoma boettcheri 
Jedlicka
, 1936
 , from the Philippines, which is the only known extra-Palaearctic record for the genus. Subsequent authors dealing with the genus, except for Lorenz (2005), have omitted this species. I have seen the holotype of  Holosoma boettcheri in BMNH and found that it belongs to a different group of  Oodini . Later, Basilewsky (1953: 153) included  Holosoma to the tribe  Simoini Basilewsky, 1953 , of subfamily  Oodinae (sensu Jeannel, 1949a). Kirschenhofer (1995) reviewed the known species (excl.  Chlaenius hedini and  Holosoma boettcheri ), adding three more species and retaining the tribal affiliation of the genus. Later, he synonymized one of his added taxa with  Holosoma hedini (Kirschenhofer 1998) . Recently, Ito (2003, 2012) added five more species and one subspecies to the genus and keyed all species known at that time. He retained the position of the genus within the  Oodini . </p>
            <p>Taxonomic position.</p>
            <p> The discussion here is based on all the generic and species descriptions (Semenov 1889, Heller 1923,  Jedlička 1931, Andrewes 1935, Kirschenhofer 1995, Ito 2003, 2012) and on the detailed examination of two specimens. It considers only the characters that are significant for the tribal position of  Holosoma . Excluding  Holosoma boettcheri , I am aware that the group is homogeneous and the main structural features are uniform among the species. </p>
            <p> Pronotum posterior margin as wide as basal margin of elytra, thus habitus seems semi-oval rather than elongate. Atypical of  Chlaeniini (but occurs in a few species, such as the Nearctic  Chlaenius tomentosus (Say, 1823) ; remark by R. Davidson). Typical of  Oodini , except for the new genera. This condition is probably a derived trend within the genus because it occurs in most, but not all, species. </p>
            <p> Body dorsally with metallic lustre (greenish, turquoise, bluish, violet to black-blue) on dorsal surface. Habitual to  Chlaeniini , since many species from this tribe are metallic colored. In the  Oodini , a metallic hue is present only in  Bamaroodes gen. n. , most species of  Simous and a few taxa of  Stenocrepis Chaudoir, 1857 . </p>
            <p> Integument sparsely pubescent dorsally and ventrally. The character is distinctive of  Chlaeniini , but it is unknown in the  Oodini . In the species of  Holosoma , the dorsal surface of the head, antennomere 3 (excl. apical setae), pronotum, intervals 8-9 of elytra, prosternum, mesepisternum, mesocoxa, mesofemur, metasternum, metepisternum, and abdomen all have rather fine and scattered punctures (see also Kirschenhofer 1995, Ito 2003). Most of the punctures are provided with short, yellowish hairs, usually well visible under higher magnification. Sparse pubescence is also present on the medial elytral intervals posteriorly, though it is much more sporadic than on the intervals 8-9. </p>
            <p> Labrum with six setae along anterior margin. This feature is typical of  Chlaeniini . Although it is present in most  Oodini , several groups have different setation of the labrum. </p>
            <p> Clypeus with a pair of setae. The condition is usual for  Chlaeniini . Although it occurs in most  Oodini , several groups lack clypeal setae. </p>
            <p> Penultimate labial palpomere with 2-4 spines at front margin. Indicative of  Chlaeniini (occurs in the most of the species). This feature is unknown in the  Oodini .  Jedlička (1931: 22) has noted that the penultimate labial palpomere in  Holosoma rambouseki lack setae, but this fact needs verification. </p>
            <p> Terminal labial palpomere with a few fine and short setae on lateral margin (see also Ito 2012: 303). Occurs in some  Chlaeniini . Unknown in the  Oodini . </p>
            <p> Elytral stria 8 shallower than, or as deep as striae 1-7. Typical of  Chlaeniini , except for  Hololeius . All taxa of  Oodini I have studied have stria 8 more or less grooved along its extent and deeper than other striae. </p>
            <p> Discal setiferous punctures situated in elytral intervals 3 and 5, or in intervals 3, 5 and 7. There is no data for this condition in  Chlaeniini , but it is also atypical of  Oodini . Like point 1, it can be an apotypic trend within the genus since it occurs in several, but not in all species of  Holosoma . For example,  Holosoma hedini ,  Holosoma heros Kirschenhofer, 1995 , and the specimens from Wenxian possess setiferous punctures in intervals 3, 5 and 7.  Holosoma namikoae Ito, 2012 , has such punctures only in intervals 3 and 5, and  Holosoma rambouseki solely in interval 3. Discal punctures are lacking in  Holosoma opacum ,  Holosoma nigritum Ito, 2003 ,  Holosoma imurai ,  Holosoma speciosum Ito, 2003 , and  Holosoma misaoae Ito, 2012 . This character has not been described for  Holosoma weigoldi . </p>
            <p> Elytral intervals 7 and 8 separate (e.g., not fused) posteriorly, thus stria 7 perceptible to apex. Typical of  Chlaeniini . Unusual for  Oodini , except for  Bamaroodes gen. n.</p>
            <p> Elytral interval 8 not forming ridge laterally. Typical of  Chlaeniini . Unusual for  Oodini , except for  Bamaroodes gen. n.</p>
            <p> Tarsomere 5 of all legs setose ventrally. Typical of  Chlaeniini . Unusual for  Oodini , except for the two new genera and a few species of  Systolocranius . Among the species of  Holosoma , the number of the setae varies from two to six on each side of tarsomere 5. </p>
            <p> Quinone-like smell defensive secretion. This is one of three groups of compounds used for defence in the  Chlaeniini . It is not found in  Oodini . Ito (2003: 95) noted that the defensive chemical in  Holosoma is "also the same as that of the genus  Chlaenius ". I noticed this pungent smell many times when was taking the specimens from Wenxian out of the test-tube and handling them. The odor is identical or similar to that existing in the European species of  Chlaeniellus Reitter, 1908 (Bousquet 1987). Moore (1979: 198-199) regarded the quinones as one of the most elaborate defensive strategies in the ground beetles. </p>
            <p> Thirteen character states are considered. Number 9 is not counted due to deficient data about its presence among other taxa. Six character states, i.e., 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 13, are typical for  Chlaeniini and are unknown to  Oodini . Characters 10, 11 and 12 are also typical of the  Chlaeniini and have a few exceptions in the  Oodini . Similarly, characters 4 and 5 are always indicative of  Chlaeniini . Most genera and species of  Oodini also share these two conditions, but there are some important exceptions. Character 1 is the only one characteristic of  Oodini and not typical of  Chlaeniini . </p>
            <p> In conclusion,  Holosoma lacks oodine characters but does share important traits with the chlaeniines. It is therefore removed to a new tribal placement incertae sedis within  Chlaeniini . The precise affinity of the genus within the tribe remains unresolved. </p>

            <p> Hololeius cyaneus Facchini, 2011</p>
            <p>Diagnosis.</p>

            <p>Etymology.</p>
            <p> A compound word, based on the ethnic name of the people in the region where the type species was first found, Bamar, and  Oodes (for its etymology see Bousquet 2012: 955). It is treated as a Latin masculine. </p>
            <p>Affinities.</p>
            <p> In 2011, Facchini described eight new species of  Chlaeniini from the Afrotropical and Oriental region, among them  Hololeius cyaneus from Myanmar (Facchini 2011: 350-351). The author noted also that the holotype of the species has sympatrically been collected with specimens of  Hololeius ceylanicus , the type species of the genus. Facchini differentiated the latter from the former by: 1, size of the body; 2, coloration of the integument, including the color of femora and epipleura; 3, shape of the pronotum; 4, shape and striation of the elytra; 5, punctuation of the elytral intervals; 6, chaetotaxy of the last abdominal sternum in the females; 7, distance between the joints of the claws of tarsomere 5. Examination of the paratype and another specimen of  Hololeius cyaneus from Thailand confirms that these distinguishing features are valid (except for the color of epipleura, which is not markedly different) and well-chosen for ready differentiation of these taxa. However, they are inadequate to give an idea of a more precise systematic position of the species, though some of the differences noted by Facchini are of generic value. </p>
            <p> Careful study ascertained significant structural differences between  Hololeius cyaneus and  Hololeius ceylanicus (Table 2). </p>
            <p> Five of the listed character states (1, 2, 3, 9, and 11) are of tribal magnitude, though one of them (i.e., attribute 9) shows transitional conditions in the two species. All the states are characteristic of  Oodini and atypical for  Chlaeniini (Jeannel 1949a, Bousquet 1996). Point 11 exhibits a unique condition in  Hololeius cyaneus that is hitherto unknown in the two tribes. However, a complete character state transformation of this feature occurs in the  Oodini . Except for  Bamaroodes gen. n. , all other examined oodines possess a ninth interval of elytra completely transformed into a marginal gutter throughout. In my view, this special feature may be morphological evidence for transition between the two tribes, but this needs further examination. The losses of the mesocoxa lateral seta (point 13) and parallel position of the joints of the tarsal claws (attribute 14) are conditions hitherto not found together in the aforementioned tribes. Among the  Oodini , the three character states occur together only in  Hololeius cyaneus and  Thaioodes gen. n. piceus sp. n. I believe that they have arisen as a consequence of a specific adaptation and survival strategy for an aquatic manner of living. The remaining character states (i.e., 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12, 15, and 16) demonstrate marked differences of a grade higher than the grade usual for species from one and the same genus. I treat each of these nine differences as of generic significance. </p>
            <p> In conclusion, there are quite a number of considerable morphological differences between  Hololeius ceylanicus and  Hololeius cyaneus , which taken together are cause for the separation of the latter in a separate genus. That is why  Bamaroodes gen. n. is proposed to accommodate this species. The new taxon does not share main tribal characters of chlaeniines but shows important similarities with oodines.  Bamaroodes cyaneus is therefore removed to a new tribal placement within  Oodini . The relationships of the new genus are discussed below (see  ‘Discussion’ ). </p>

Thaioodes piceus B. 
Gueorguiev sp. n.</p>
            <p>Diagnosis.</p>
            <p> Small to medium-sized species (6.7-6.9 mm) for Oriental  Oodini , habitus semi-elongate; color piceous on dorsal and ventral surface, with slight bluish color dorsally, antennomeres 1-3 of antennae, palpi, tibiae, tarsomeres red-yellow to yellow; microsculpture isodiametric; tegument completely glabrous and impunctate, only disc of head lightly punctate; head with conspicuously large eyes and minute tempora; frons with punctiform impressions and one pair of supraorbital punctures; labrum with six setae along anterior margin; clypeus with two setae; labial palpomere glabrous; mentum tooth rounded anteriorly, bordered posteriorly; pronotum subquadrate, rounded, without protruded angles, with anterior and posterior margins of nearly equal width; sides of pronotum bordered apically and laterally, not bordered basally; anterolateral and posterolateral setae lacking; laterobasal impressions faint, sublinear; elytra with well-im  pressed striae, distinct to apex; striae 5-7 obliterated basally; stria 8 grooved along most of its length, deeper than striae 1-7; parascutellar striola well-developed, long, situated between suture and stria 1; intervals impunctate, smooth, subconvex in anterior half, convex posteriorly; interval 3 at apex nearly twice as broad as intervals 1 and 2; intervals 7 and 8 fused posteriorly or not to apex; interval 8 (or its substitute interval 7) forming outward ridge, moderately elevated, more distinct along posterior half of elytra; interval 9 transformed into marginal gutter throughout; marginal gutter distinct to apex of elytron; prosternal process bordered; mesosternum concave; metepisternum laterally coadunate with elytral epipleuron; sterna 4-5 with pair of minute ambulatory setae; apical sternum without setae in male; mesocoxa without lateral seta, with posteromedial seta; metacoxa with anterior pore; mesofemur without posterior setae; metafemur glabrous; protarsomeres 1 and 3 in males longer than wide, tarsomere 2 subquadrate, each with variable number of small round adhesive setae with oval discs underneath; tarsomere 5 of all legs setose ventrally. </p>
            <p>Etymology.</p>
            <p> A compound word, based on the ethnic name of the predominating people in the country where the type species was found, Thai, and  Oodes (for the etymology of this name see Bousquet 2012: 955). It is treated as a Latin masculine. </p>
            <p>Affinities.</p>
            <p> Specific characters of the new genus correspond with the basic features of  Oodini as far as these have been outlined by Jeannel (1949a) and Bousquet (1996): 1, integument of body glabrous and largely impunctate; 2, antennomere 3 glabrous, excluding apical setae; 3, stria 8 deeper than other striae; 4, interval 8 forming outward ridge posteriorly; 5, interval 9 transformed into marginal gutter. </p>
            <p> Thaioodes gen. n. is most closely allied to  Bamaroodes gen. n. (see  ‘Discussion’ ). The former genus differs from the latter genus by: 1, tegument unicolored dorsally (vs. tegument bicolored dorsally); 2, pronotum slightly wider than long (PW/PL: 1.18), with sides partly bordered (vs. pronotum distinctly wider than long, PW/PL: 1.24-1.37, with sides finely bordered throughout); 3, anterolateral and basolateral setae of pronotum lacking (vs. anterolateral seta lacking, basolateral setae present); 4, all striae of elytra distinct to apex (vs. elytral striae 1-7 obliterated before apex); 5, stria 7 ending before apex or joining stria 8, thus intervals 7 and 8 fused posteriorly (vs. stria 7 separate before apex, thus intervals 7 and 8 not fused posteriorly); 6, intervals convex posteriorly (vs. intervals uniformly flat throughout); 7, interval 8 forms ridge posteriorly (vs. interval 8 not forming ridge posteriorly); 8, interval 9 transformed into marginal gutter throughout (vs. interval 9 transformed into marginal gutter only at anterior two fifths of elytron); 9, marginal gutter distinct to apex of elytron (vs. marginal gutter ended before apex of elytron); 10, umbilicate series of elytra with 19-20 pores (vs. umbilicate series with 15-16 pores); 11, prosternal process bordered (vs. prosternal process unbordered). </p>
            <p> In my estimation, the presented series of differences and their opposed states are enough to differentiate  Thaioodes piceus sp. n. from  Bamaroodes cyaneus at a generic level. </p>
