See Klimaszewski &amp; Pelletier (2002).</p> <p>Type species. Tinotus cavicollis Sharp, 1883, by subsequent designation (Fenyes, 1918).</p> <p>Discussion. The genus Tinotus Sharp, 1883 currently includes about 30 valid species (Klimaszewski &amp; Pelletier 2002; Hanley 2002). Recently Hanley (2002) published a world catalogue of the genus. Klimaszewski and Pelletier (2002) revised the types of Nearctic species of Tinotus, synonymized some species names and provided a key for identification of Tinotus of America north of Mexico.</p> <p>Casey (1911a) described the genus Acrimea, including three species described in the same paper. He placed Acrimea in the tribe Aleocharini and considered it related to Thiasophila Kraatz, 1856 and Ischnoglossa Kraatz, 1856. Subsequently Acrimea was considered to be a member of the tribe Oxypodini (Fenyes 1918, 1920; Bernhauer &amp; Scheerpeltz 1926; Seevers 1978; Newton et al. 2000).</p> <p>My revision of the types of the three species of Acrimea revealed that in all three the tarsal formula is in fact 4­5­5 and all three belong to the genus Tinotus. The type species of Acrimea, Acri. resecta, is a synonym of Ti. acerbus (see below). Therefore, Acrimea is a junior synonym of Tinotus.</p> <p>Because Acrimea was erroneously considered to have the tarsal formula 5­5­5, the genus was incorrectly listed in key B to the Nearctic genera of aleocharines (Newton et al. 2000: 303). Couplet 19 should be deleted from key B, and couplet 18 should be modified as follows:</p> <p>18(16).

See Klimaszewski &amp; Pelletier (2002).</p> <p>Discussion. The lectotype of Acrimea fimbriata is similar to the holotype of Ti. trisectus in external characters. The shape of the aedeagus, including the structure of the internal sac, is identical in the lectotype of Acri. fimbriata and in examined males of Ti. trisectus.</p> <p>Klimaszewski et al. (2002) placed Ti. pallidus in synonymy with Ti. caviceps. Unfortunately, the male paralectotype of Ti. pallidus lacks the head and pronotum which does not allow the comparison of these parts of the body with the males of Ti. caviceps which have strong medial impressions of the head disk and pronotum. However, both types of Ti. pallidus are more glossy than the types of Ti. caviceps and resemble Ti. trisectus in that respect. The aedeagus (including the structures of the internal sac) of the paralectotype of Ti. pallidus is similar to the aedeagus of Ti. trisectus, and not Ti. caviceps. This fact is clear when Figures 21, 23 and 17–20 in Klimaszewski &amp; Pelletier (2002) are compared. Therefore, Ti. pallidus is removed from synonymy with Ti. caviceps and placed in synonymy with Ti. trisectus Casey, 1906.</p> <p>Hanley (2002) designated the lectotype of Ti. trisectus. However, when Casey (1906) described Ti. trisectus he indicated that he had “the single type” of this species. Therefore this type is the holotype, and the lectotype designation by Hanley (2002) is redundant. Hanley (2002) also designated the lectotype of Ti. binarius. When Casey (1911a) described Ti. binarius he indicated that he had “only one example” of this species. Therefore this type is the holotype, and the lectotype designation by Hanley (2002) is redundant.</p> <p>Distribution. Ti. trisectus is widespread in the United States. It is known from Oregon, California, Arizona, Idaho, Iowa, Pennsylvania and Tennessee.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FF8A5347CD2450CEFB88A409	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Casey (1910a) did not specifically state in his description of Ancillota that Anc. sollemnis was the type species of Ancillota; however, while designating the type species of Noverota Casey, 1910a in the same paper, Casey stated (1910a, p. 90): “The first species may be regarded as the type, as in all other cases where the type is not specifically named”. The type species of Ancillota, Anc. sollemnis, has a tarsal formula 5­ 5­5 and is synonymous with Oxypoda amica Casey, 1906 (see below). Therefore, Ancillota is placed in synonymy with Oxypoda.</p> <p>Casey (1911a) described the monotypic genus Moluciba in the subtribe Athetina. My examination of the holotype of Mol. grandipennis revealed that the tarsal formula in the type is 5­5­5, and the species has all characters of the nominotypical subgenus of the genus Oxypoda. When describing Moluciba, Casey (1911a) compared it with Acrotona and related athetine genera, and failed to realize that Mol. grandipennis in fact belonged to Oxypodini.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FF8E5342CD245154FE55A566	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

The types of O. amica, Anc. sollemnis, O. vetula, O. neptis and O. schaefferi are similar in external characters and in the shape of the aedeagus (including the sclerites of the internal sac) and spermatheca.</p> <p>Distribution. Oxypoda amica is widespread in the eastern United States. It is known from Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Kentucky, New York, New Jersey, Tennessee, North Carolina and Louisiana.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FF91535FCD24524EFDF9A639	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

See Lohse 1974c (as Dasyglossa prospera); Lohse et al. 1990 (as De. congruens).</p> <p>Discussion. There is some controversy on how many species of Devia occur in North America. Bernhauer and Scheerpeltz (1926) listed Das. prospera as a single valid species of Dasyglossa and considered it as a Holarctic species. They listed Das. angularis (Mäklin in Mannerheim, 1853) and Das. congruens (both described from North America) as synonyms of Das. prospera. Moore and Legner (1975) followed Bernhauer and Scheerpeltz (1926).</p> <p>Seevers (1978) listed De. congruens and De. prospera as separate valid species, both represented in North America.</p> <p>Muona (1984) confirmed that De. prospera occurred in North America but did not comment on the status of De. congruens, perhaps because he did not have an opportunity to examine the type of the latter species.</p> <p>Lohse and Smetana (1985) designated the lectotype of Myrmedonia angularis Mäklin in Mannerheim, 1853 and transferred it to the genus Lypoglossa Fenyes, 1918 in the tribe Athetini. They considered De. prospera and De. congruens as separate species and illustrated the aedeagi for both. Lohse and Smetana (1985) were mostly interested in clarifying the status of My. angularis and provided no information on the localities of the illustrated specimens; nor did Lohse and Smetana discuss the geographical distribution of De. prospera and De. congruens. In a later paper (Lohse et al. 1990) dealing with the Arctic North American aleocharines Lohse mentioned only De. congruens. Unfortunately, he did not explicitly state whether, in his opinion, De. prospera occurred in North America.</p> <p>Ashe (Newton et al. 2000) states that only one species of Devia (De. congruens) occurs in North America.</p> <p>My examination of the types of Oxypoda prospera and O. congruens, as well as additional specimens did not reveal any differences between the specimens from the Nearctic and Palaearctic Regions in the shape of the aedeagus and the sclerites of its internal sac. The drawings in the paper by Lohse and Smetana (1985: Figs. 22–23) are very schematic and the difference between them results mostly from different extent of the evertion of the internal sac in the two preparations. I consider De. congruens to be a synonym of De. prospera, a species with Holarctic distribution and the single valid species in the genus Devia.</p> <p>Distribution. Devia prospera has a circumpolar distribution. In North America De. prospera is known from Canada (British Columbia, Northwest Territories (Lohse et al. 1990), Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario and Labrador) and the United States (Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FF93535ACD24568EFCA0A6C9	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

When describing Paradilacra, Bernhauer (1909) included in it an additional Nearctic species (Atheta ambigua (Erichson, 1839)) and one species from North Africa (At. hyperbolica Bernhauer, 1905). In this paper At. ambigua is placed in the genus Strigota Casey, 1910a (see below). The aedeagus and spermatheca of Pa. densissima are shown in Figs. 23–30.</p> <p>Discussion. My comparison of the types of the species described by Casey (1910a, 1911a) in the genus Paradilacra with the types of Pa. densissima confirmed the synonymies established by Fenyes (1920). The body size and the length of the female spermatheca (Figs. 29–30) varies in examined specimens but this variation is continuous. In all examined male specimens the shape of the aedeagus and the sclerites of its internal sac were identical.</p> <p>Distribution. Paradilacra densissima is widely distributed in the western United States (California, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Montana and North Dakota) and Canada (British Columbia and Alberta).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FF975350CD24528BFDA7A3B9	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

The magnitude of the genus Atheta varies in different contemporary works (Benick &amp; Lohse 1974; Muona 1979b; Lohse et al. 1990). In the narrowest sense (e.g., Lohse et al. 1990, where it is equivalent to Atheta s. str. of Benick and Lohse 1974) Atheta includes the athetines with pronotal setation of type I (Benick &amp; Lohse 1974), with hypomera fully visible in lateral view and with distinctly shaped spermatheca with thick distal portion and thin coiled proximal portion (Figs. 150–155 in Strand &amp; Vik 1964). In other interpretations (Benick &amp; Lohse 1974; Muona 1979b), which can be traced back to Ganglbauer (1895), Atheta is a much wider group. If this wider interpretation of the genus is accepted it is hard to say what the autapomorphies are which define it. In the key by Benick and Lohse (1974; pp. 72–79) one arrives at Atheta at the very end of the key, after having eliminated all other athetine genera, and essentially the genus is characterized by the features it lacks. Further analysis is needed to determine whether Atheta in the broad sense can be maintained as a monophyletic group.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FF9C5350CD24517CFC8CA4E6	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

See Benick &amp; Lohse (1974). Aedeagus and spermatheca: Fig. 155 in Strand &amp; Vik (1964).</p> <p>Discussion. The lectotype of At. nomadica represents a small specimen of At. graminicola, and falls within the range of intraspecific variation of At. graminicola in punctation, proportions of antennal segments and the shape of the spermatheca. The lectotype of At. lanei is similar to examined specimens of At. graminicola in external characters and in the shape of the spermatheca.</p> <p>Lohse and Smetana (1985) argued that At. graminicola and At. granulata are closely related but different species, citing the difference in the shape of the aedeagus and spermatheca and in punctation of the pronotum and elytra. The proximal portion of the spermatheca in At. graminicola is variable and the difference between Figs. 5 and 7 in Lohse and Smetana (1985) is within the range of variability of this species. I was unable to confirm the difference between Palaearctic specimens of At. graminicola and Nearctic specimens. I consider At. granulata to be synonymous with At. graminicola.</p> <p>Distribution. Atheta graminicola is a Holarctic species. In North America it is known from Canada (British Columbia, Yukon Territory, Northwest Territories, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Québec, Labrador, Newfoundland) and the United States (Alaska and Oregon).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FF9D536CCD24524EFEA9A431	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

See Klimaszewski and Winchester (2002; as Atheta vasta).</p> <p>Discussion. The lectotype of At. innocens agrees with the types of At. keeni in external characters and the shape of the spermatheca. The lectotype of At. profecta has no head and prothorax but agrees with the types of At. keeni in the shape of the aedeagus and abdominal tergum 8. The lectotype of At. profecta is poorly pigmented, but otherwise it agrees completely with At. keeni in external characters, including male secondary features, and in the shape of the aedeagus.</p> <p>The type series of Homalota vasta Mäklin in Mannerheim, 1853 (examined) includes two specimens (Lohse &amp; Smetana 1985). One of them is a female conspecific with Atheta keeni and the other is a female belonging to the genus Liogluta and illustrated by Lohse and Smetana (1985). This second female bears the following labels: “Sitka”, “Holmberg”, “Mus. Zool. H:fors. Spec. Typ. No. 2251. Homalota vasta Mäklin ”. From the description and illustrations in Lohse and Smetana (1985) it is clear that they meant to designate the second specimen (a female of Liogluta) as the lectotype of Homalota vasta. Unfortunately, when they cited the labels of the lectotype, they listed the labels of the first specimen (a female of Atheta keeni). Moreover, it is the first specimen that had been labeled as the lectotype. The latter circumstance is especially misleading and originally I was going to accept what the lectotype label said, and consider Atheta keeni and Homalota vasta to be synonymous. While identifying some athetines from British Columbia for Jan Klimaszewski (Klimaszewski &amp; Winchester 2002) I labeled the specimens of Atheta keeni as At. vasta. However, Lohse and Smetana are very explicit in that they meant the specimen of Liogluta, illustrated and redescribed by them, to be the lectotype of Homalota vasta. Therefore I accept their intent to designate the Liogluta specimen as the lectotype, disregard their misplaced lectotype label and consider At. keeni to be a valid species, different from Liogluta vasta. In the type series of Homalota vasta I labeled the specimen of Liogluta as lectotype and the specimen of At. keeni as paralectotype.</p> <p>Atheta keeni is the type species of the subgenus Lamiota Casey, 1910a (by original designation). Subgeneric assignment of At. keeni and the status of the name Lamiota requires further study. Atheta keeni has the pronotal pubescence of the type I and cannot be placed in the genus Liogluta Thomson, 1858.</p> <p>Distribution. Atheta keeni is known from Alaska, British Columbia and Oregon.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFA4536ACD245076FB2FA7D9	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

See Lohse &amp; Smetana (1985); Klimaszewski &amp; Winchester (2002).</p> <p>Discussion. The name Atheta picipennis (Mannerheim, 1843) (ex Homalota) is a secondary junior homonym of the name Atheta picipennis (Stephens, 1832) (ex Aleochara) which is itself a primary junior homonym of the name Aleochara picipennis Gyllenhal, 1827. Atheta picipennis (Stephens, 1832) has been considered a synonym of Atheta amicula (Stephens, 1832) since at least 1868 (Gemminger &amp; Harold 1868) and to the best of my knowledge has not been cited as valid after 1899 (Article 23.9.1.1). In the last 50 years at least 31 works by at least 42 authors have been published (Hatch 1957; Gensicke 1960; Hansen et. al. 1960; Strand &amp; Vik 1964; Koch 1968; Scheerpeltz 1968; Easton 1970; Palm 1970; Blackwelder 1973; Bordoni 1973; Tikhomirova 1973; Benick &amp; Lohse 1974; Moore &amp; Legner 1975; Yosii &amp; Sawada 1976; Hanski &amp; Koskela 1977; Pope 1977; Hanski &amp; Koskela 1978; Muona 1979b; Burakowski et al. 1981; Uhlig &amp; Vogel 1981; Benick 1982; Sawada 1982; Muona 1984; Lohse 1985; Segers 1986; Kahlen 1987; Muona 1987; Silfverberg 1988; Alexandrovitch et al. 1996; Derunkov &amp; Melke 2001; Klimaszewski &amp; Winchester 2002) listing Atheta picipennis as valid (Article 23.9.1.2). Atheta picipennis (Mannerheim, 1843) is a nomen protectum and Atheta picipennis (Stephens, 1832) is a nomen oblitum (Article 23.9.2).</p> <p>Atheta picipennis was believed to have a Holarctic distribution (e.g., Bernhauer &amp; Scheerpeltz 1926) until Lohse and Smetana (1985) demonstrated that the Palaearctic specimens belonged to a separate species, At. aeneipennis (Thomson, 1856).</p> <p>Females of At. picipennis and At. altaica Bernhauer, 1901 have very similar spermathecae. Klimaszewski and Winchester (2002) were unable to find any difference between females of the two species. Although in average At. picipennis has a larger body than At. altaica, females of these two species can be reliably identified only by association with males. In comparison to At. altaica, males of At. picipennis have a narrower apex of the median lobe of the aedeagus.</p> <p>Distribution. Atheta picipennis and At. altaica appear to be allopatric: Atheta picipennis is known from southeast Alaska (Sitka, Wrangell), coastal British Columbia and California, while At. altaica is known (in North America) from the Kenai Peninsula (Alaska), central Alaska, Yukon Territory, Northwest Territories and Labrador (Lohse et al. 1990).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFA75365CD2450E4FEA1A721	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Atheta modesta is closely related to the Palaearctic At. crassicornis (Fabricius, 1793) but differs in having the pronotal setation pattern of the type III, the distinct shape of the male tergum 8 (Fig. 56) and in the shape of the aedeagus (Figs. 60– 68). The spermathecae of the two species are very similar (Fig. 69).</p> <p>Discussion. Bernhauer (1907) described At. virginica as a variety of At. crassicornis. He noted the similarity between the examined North American specimens and the European specimens, but listed several differences between the two. He also noted that when additional Nearctic specimens become available they might prove to represent a distinct species and not a variety of At. crassicornis.</p> <p>The types of H. modesta, At. crassicornis var. virginica, At. rhodeana, At. capella, At. ducens, At. temperans, At. logica, At. tradita, At. fenisex, At. vierecki, At. auguralis and At. bifaria are similar in external characters and in the shape of the aedeagus and spermatheca. All these names are considered to be synonyms.</p> <p>Distribution. Atheta modesta is widely distributed in the eastern United States (Michigan, Vermont, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and District of Columbia) and Canada (New Brunswick, Ontario and Québec).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFB15379CD24524EFB7BA4E7	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

UKRAINE: Crimea: Simferopol’ distr.: 10 specimens, Krasnoles’ye, 400 m, in rotting wood and on mushrooms, 27.v.1990 (V.I.Gusarov) (SPSU); Ivano­Frankovsk Reg.: 7 specimens, Nadvornaya, on polypore mushrooms, 6.viii.1978 (S.Mosyakin) (SPSU).</p> <p>Diagnosis. See Benick &amp; Lohse (1974).</p> <p>Discussion. The types of Ale. nigritula were examined to clarify the status of At. frosti and At. nigritula. The historic collection at ZMHB which contains the Gravenhorst types has several specimens arranged as Aleochara nigritula in the following order: the label at the bottom of the drawer “var. c. A. nigritula Gr. ” is followed by 11 specimens: 1) ♀ (with the head and pronotum missing), labeled “ nigritula Gr. ”; 2) ♀, without labels; 3) ♀, without labels; 4) ♂, without labels; 5) ♀, without labels; 6) a specimen labeled “ fungicola Kraatz”; 7) a specimen without labels; 8) a specimen labeled “var. d”; 9) a specimen without labels; 10) a specimen labeled “Sard. Géné”; 11) a specimen labeled “Ural Er.”. These 11 specimens complete the row. The next row starts with a label at the bottom of the drawer “var.?” which is followed by 7 specimens: 12–15) four unlabeled specimens, 16) a specimen labeled “Aust. …[illegible]”; 17–18) two specimens mounted on the same card labeled “Pallau H. socialis var. nigra Gve. ”. Apparently, the specimens listed above had been arranged by Erichson, who described Homalota socialis Erichson, 1839 and listed Aleochara nigritula Gravenhorst as “Var. c” of H. socialis. Therefore only the specimens (Nos. 1–7) which follow the label “var. c” qualify as potential syntypes of Aleochara nigritula. My examination of these seven specimens demonstrated that only specimen No. 1 belongs to At. nigritula in the commonly used sense (e. g., Strand &amp; Vik 1964; Benick &amp; Lohse 1974); specimens No. 2 and No. 5 belong to At. pallidicornis (Thomson, 1856); specimen No. 3 belongs to Dalotia coriaria (Kraatz, 1856); specimen No. 4 belongs to At. gagatina (Baudi, 1848); specimen No. 6 is not conspecific with At. nigritula and has the pronotal pubescence of type I; specimen No. 7 is not conspecific with At. nigritula and has the pronotal pubescence of type II. Specimen No. 1 was selected as the lectotype of Aleochara nigritula. The spermatheca of that specimen matches the illustrations by Strand and Vik (1964: Fig. 117) and Benick and Lohse (1974, p. 154: Fig. 7).</p> <p>Atheta nigritula (Gravenhorst, 1802) is the types species of the subgenus Tetropla Mulsant &amp; Rey, 1874a (by subsequent designation, fixed by Blackwelder (1952)).</p> <p>Distribution. Atheta nigritula is a common European species associated with fungi. It has been reported from North America (Bernhauer 1907; Bernhauer &amp; Scheerpeltz 1926) but, to the best of my knowledge, does not occur there. The examined North American specimens formerly identified as At. nigritula turned out to be At. frosti Bernhauer, 1909, a closely related but separate species.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFBB5370CD2451AEFD71A641	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Atheta ventricosa is very similar to At. sodalis (Erichson, 1837) but differs in the shape of the aedeagus (Figs. 85–88, 90–92) (particularly the apex of the median lobe (Figs. 85–86) and the sclerites of the internal sac (Figs. 90–92)), and the posterior margin of the male tergum 8 (Fig. 81).</p> <p>Discussion. The types of At. ventricosa, At. mollicula, Sa. phrenetica, At. callens, At. franklini and At. postulans are similar in external characters and the shape of the aedeagus and spermatheca. All these names are considered to be synonyms.</p> <p>Distribution. Atheta ventricosa is a widespread species but its distribution is poorly documented. It is known from the United States (Alaska, Vermont, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, District of Columbia and North Carolina) and Canada (British Columbia, Ontario and New Brunswick).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFBC5373CD24578EFD34A558	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

GERMANY: ♂, env. of Bayreuth, 30.ix.1992; ♀, Bavaria, Mittelfranken, env. of Feuchtwangen, vi.1991 (Th.Blick) (SPSU); RUSSIA: Samara Reg.: 2 specimens, Zhiguli Nature Reserve, 25.vii–15.viii.1988 (Krasnobayev) (SPSU).</p> <p>Diagnosis. See Benick &amp; Lohse (1974).</p> <p>Discussion. The types of Homalota sodalis were examined to clarify the status of At. ventricosa and At. sodalis. The historic collection at ZMHB which contains the Erichson types has 5 specimens arranged as Homalota sodalis in the following order: 1) ♀, labeled “ sodalis Er. Berol. [Berlin] Er. [Erichson]”, “5411”; 2) ♂, without labels; 3) ♂, without labels; 4) ♂, labeled “Aust.”; 5) ♀, without labels. My examination of these five specimens demonstrated that only specimens Nos. 1–4 belonged to At. sodalis in the commonly used sense (e. g., Strand &amp; Vik 1964; Benick &amp; Lohse 1974). In specimen No. 5 the shape of the antennal articles is different and that specimen is not conspecific with At. sodalis. Specimen No. 4 is not a syntype because it was not collected in the type locality of At. sodalis (Mark Brandenburg). Specimen No. 3 was selected as the lectotype. It agrees with the commonly accepted concept of this species in external characters, including the shape of the tergum 8. The lectotype was not dissected. Specimens Nos. 1 and 2 were labeled as paralectotypes.</p> <p>Distribution. Atheta sodalis is a common European species. Although formerly reported from North America (Bernhauer &amp; Scheerpeltz 1926), to the best of my knowledge, At. sodalis does not occur there. In North America At. sodalis is replaced by a closely related species, At. ventricosa Bernhauer, 1907.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFC0530DCD2457E4FC49A189	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Atheta klagesi can be recognized by the following combination of characters: head and abdominal terga 5–6 black; pronotum, abdominal terga 3–4 and 7–8, and antennal articles 4–11 or 3–11 brown; elytra yellow with vaguely defined darker areas around scutellum and in postero­lateral angles; antennal articles 1–2 or 1–3, legs and mouthparts yellow; antennal articles 5–10 strongly transverse, article 10 twice as wide as long; pronotal pubescence of type V (Benick &amp; Lohse 1974); mesotibial macrosetae thin, as long as tibial width; posterior margin of male tergum 8 convex and crenulate (Figs. 93, 95); aedeagus as in Figs. 99–102; and spermatheca as in Fig. 98.</p> <p>Discussion. The types of At. klagesi, At. cephalina, At. nympha, At. discreta, Ps. dissensa and At. villica are similar in external characters and the shape of the aedeagus and spermatheca. All these names are considered to be synonyms.</p> <p>Atheta cephalina is the type species of the subgenus Delphota Casey, 1910a by original designation. Pseudota dissensa is the type species of the genus Pseudota Casey, 1910a by original designation (Casey first species rule). Casey did not specifically state in his description of Pseudota that Ps. dissensa was the type species of Pseudota; however, while designating the type species of Noverota Casey, 1910a in the same paper, Casey stated (1910a, p. 90): “The first species may be regarded as the type, as in all other cases where the type is not specifically named”.</p> <p>Since both At. cephalina and Ps. dissensa are synonyms of At. klagesi, the names Delphota and Pseudota are subjective synonyms of each other, irrespective of what subgenera in the genus Atheta are accepted as valid. The problem of subgeneric placement of At. klagesi within Atheta is outside the scope of the present paper. The matter will be addressed in a separate work when the generic revision of the tribe Athetini is completed.</p> <p>Distribution. Atheta klagesi is known from the eastern United States (Minnesota, Iowa, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Maine) and eastern Canada (Québec).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFC15309CD245746FB0DA361	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

In the Casey collection there is only one type of At. annexa. Apparently this is the type that was examined and designated as the lectotype by Klimaszewski and Peck.

Atheta festinans can be recognized by the black head and abdomen, the brown pronotum, elytra, antennae and mouthparts, yellow legs, strongly transverse antennal articles 8–10, the pronotal pubescence of type II (Benick &amp; Lohse 1974), the mesotibial macroseta thin, short and poorly visible among microsetae; and the distinct shape of the spermatheca (Figs. 105–106).</p> <p>Discussion. The types of H. festinans, At. punctata, Sy. merica and Sy. consonens are similar in external characters and the shape of the spermatheca. All these names are considered to be synonyms.</p> <p>Synaptina merica is the type species of the genus Synaptina Casey, 1910a by original designation (Casey first species rule). Casey did not specifically state in his description of Synaptina that Sy. merica was the type species of Synaptina; however, while designating the type species of Noverota Casey, 1910a in the same paper, Casey stated (1910a, p. 90): “The first species may be regarded as the type, as in all other cases where the type is not specifically named”.</p> <p>When describing the genus Synaptina, Casey (1910a) did not explicitly state in what characters it differed from other athetine genera. In my opinion, all characters mentioned by Casey in the description of Synaptina fit the genus Atheta in the broad sense. The type species of Synaptina is similar to other species of Atheta with pronotal pubescence of type II. I consider Synaptina to be a synonym of Atheta at the rank of genus.</p> <p>Atheta festinans appears to be a parthenogenetic species. All 53 examined specimens are females.</p> <p>Distribution. Atheta festinans is known from Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas and Arizona.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFC75306CD245614FC8FA0F9	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Atheta pennsylvanica belongs to a group of distinctly colored species within Microdota with dark brown head and abdominal terga 5–8, light brown elytra, and reddish yellow pronotum and abdominal terga 3–4. Atheta pennsylvanica can be distinguished from other species of this group by having a larger body size and the distinct shape of the aedeagus (Figs. 114–115) and spermatheca (Figs. 112–113).</p> <p>Discussion. The types of At. fontis are similar to the types of At. pennsylvanica in the body size, in external characters and in the shape of the spermatheca. Therefore, the synonymy of the two species established by Fenyes (1920) and Bernhauer &amp; Scheerpeltz (1926) is confirmed. I agree with Bernhauer &amp; Scheerpeltz (1926) that of all species of Microdota described by Casey (1910a, 1911a) only At. fontis is synonymous with At. pennsylvanica.</p> <p>Distribution. Atheta pennsylvanica is widespread in the eastern United States (Vermont, Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania and Minnesota) and is also known from eastern Canada (Ontario, Québec).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFCD531CCD24567EFD07A101	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

See Lohse et al. (1990).</p> <p>Discussion. Lohse (Lohse et al. 1990) considered the single type of Din. nomensis in the Casey collection as the holotype. However, Casey (1910a) neither used the word “ holotype ” nor stated that he had the single specimen of that species. Therefore, Lohse designated the lectotype of Din. nomensis by inference of holotype (Article 74.6; ICZN 1999).</p> <p>Lohse (Lohse et al. 1990) stated that “the aedeagi of B. caseyiana and B. nomensis are extremely similar”. However, based on a larger body size (3.8 mm versus 3.0 mm) and a less transverse pronotum (width to length ratio 11 /5 versus 11 /3) of the holotype of Boreophilia caseyiana in comparison to the lectotype of Din. nomensis, Lohse considered the two as separate species. The aedeagi of the types of both species, including the sclerites of the internal sac, are in fact identical. According to my measuring, in the holotype of Boreophilia caseyiana the body length is 3.6 mm and pronotal width to length ratio is 1.22. In the lectotype of Din. nomensis the body length is 3.3 mm, and pronotal width to length ratio is 1.29. In Athetini, such difference in body length and pronotal width is not unusual within the same species. Considering the identity of the aedeagi I place Boreophilia caseyiana in synonymy with Boreophilia nomensis.</p> <p>Distribution. Boreophilia nomensis is known from Alaska and Yukon Territory.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFD0531DCD2457E4FB34A17C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Boreophilia angusticornis is closely related to Palaearctic Boreophilia subplana (J. Sahlberg, 1880) but differs in the shape of the aedeagus (Figs. 120–123), particularly a narrower apex of the median lobe (in parameral view) (cf. Fig. 73 in Brundin 1953 and Fig. 120 in this paper).</p> <p>Discussion. The lectotype of Me. plutonica and the paralectotype of At. angusticornis are similar in external characters and also in the shape of the spermatheca. The two species were described from the same locality. I consider Me. plutonica to be a synonym of Boreophilia angusticornis.</p> <p>Distribution. Boreophilia angusticornis is known only from the Mount Washington, New Hampshire. This area was affected by the last glaciation and is unlikely to have relict endemic species. Boreophilia angusticornis may occur in other high mountains of the north­eastern United States and also in Canada, at lower altitudes further north.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFD2531FCD24524EFB70A161	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

See Brundin (1940; as At. frigida) and Lohse et al. (1990; as Boreostiba lamellifera).</p> <p>Discussion. Lohse (Lohse et al. 1990) did not examine the types of At. frigida and based his judgement on the status of this species on the drawings by Brundin (1940) who had examined the types of both At. frigida and H. sibirica (the type species of Boreostiba). Lohse (Lohse et al. 1990: 197) believed that the difference in Brundin’s drawings for At. frigida and At. sibirica resulted from “the variable extent of the evagination of the internal sac”. I do not agree with this interpretation of Brundin’s drawings (Brundin 1940: Figs. 85–88) which are, in my opinion, more accurate than the drawings in Lohse et al. (1990: Figs. 190–191, 194–196). When Brundin’s drawings of the median lobe of the aedeagus of At. sibirica (Figs. 85–86) and At. frigida (Figs. 87–88) are compared, the difference between the two species in the length of the athetine bridge (cf. Fig. 85 and Fig. 87 in Brundin 1940) and the shape of the apex of the median lobe (cf. Fig. 86 and Fig. 88 in Brundin 1940) is very clear. Both the athetine bridge and the apex of the median lobe are rigid structures which do not change their shape when the internal sac is everted. The differences in Brundin’s drawings for At. sibirica and At. frigida allow to easily separate both species (the first species has a shorter athetine bridge than the second species) and cannot be attributed to a different extent of the evagination of the internal sac. My examination of the holotype of Boreostiba lamellifera demonstrated that it was conspecific with examined Palaearctic specimens of Boreostiba frigida. The drawings of the aedeagus of Boreostiba lamellifera (Figs. 190–191, 193 in Lohse et al. 1990) match the corresponding drawings of Boreostiba frigida (Figs. 87–88 in Brundin 1940). Therefore I remove Boreostiba frigida from synonymy with Boreostiba sibirica and place Boreostiba lamellifera in synonymy with Boreostiba frigida.</p> <p>Distribution. Boreostiba frigida has circumpolar distribution. In North America it is known from Canada (Québec and Yukon Territory).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFD35319CD2455EEFCB1A049	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Dalotia can be recognized by the combination of the following characters: body broad; sensilla a of epipharynx long; antennal article 2 as long as article 3, articles 4– 10 slightly elongate or subquadrate; ligula with narrow base and split apically; labial palpus with setae, and present; ligula with two long setae; hypopharynx with long setae; infraorbicular carina complete, pronotum strongly transverse, with microsetae directed anteriad along the midline; in lateral portions of the disc microsetae directed laterad and obliquely posteriad (Type I, Benick &amp; Lohse 1974); pronotal macrosetae long; pronotal hypomera fully visible in lateral view; medial macroseta of mesotibia strong, longer than tibial width; mesothoracic process narrow; tarsal formula 4­5­5; metatarsal segment 1 as long as segment 2; with one empodial seta, shorter than claws; abdominal terga 3–5 with transverse basal impression; medial lamellae of internal sac present; copulatory piece with pointed apex.</p> <p>Dalotia differs from Atheta in having its ligula with two long setae (Fig. 125) and long hypopharyngeal setae (Fig. 126).</p> <p>Discussion. The type species of Dalotia is Dimetrota pectorina Casey, 1910a by original designation. Casey did not specifically state in his description of Dalotia that Dimetrota pectorina was the type species of Dalotia; however, while designating the type species of Noverota Casey, 1910a in the same paper, Casey stated (1910a, p. 90): “The first species may be regarded as the type, as in all other cases where the type is not specifically named”. Dimetrota pectorina is a synonym of the species known as Atheta coriaria (Kraatz, 1856) (see below).</p> <p>Muona (1979a, 1979b, 1987) pointed out that the species well known under the name Atheta coriaria does not in fact belong to Atheta because of the bisetose glossa and the distinct complex structure of the internal sac of the aedeagus. Because this species occurs in North America (Muona 1979a, 1984) Muona did not propose a new name for the genus which would include this species. He suggested that one of the Casey names might be used when the types of Casey species are revised. My revision of Casey types of Aleocharinae suggests that Dalotia should be the valid name for this genus.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFD75314CD2451AEFBA5A70C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

See Benick &amp; Lohse (1974; as Atheta coriaria). Aedeagus and spermatheca: Fig. 129 in Strand &amp; Vik (1964).</p> <p>Discussion. The lectotypes of Ps. miscella, Dim. pectorina and Dim. crucialis agree completely with the specimens of Dal. coriaria from Europe in external characters, including male secondary features and the shape of the aedeagus.</p> <p>Muona (1979a, 1987) pointed out that Atheta coriaria is conspecific with Taxicera academica based on the detailed illustrations of the internal sac of the aedeagus of the latter species by Yosii and Sawada (1976). I accept Muona's interpretation.</p> <p>Distribution. In North America Dal. coriaria is known from California, Florida (Frank 1980), Louisiana, New Jersey and New York. Because Dal. coriaria is restricted to areas on the West and East coasts, and not known from inland states of the United States, it is probably an introduction from Europe.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFD85316CD2456C2FD31A019	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

See Hoebeke (1988 (as Th. lira), and 1994 (as Th. paralira)).</p> <p>Discussion. According to Hoebeke (1994), Th. paralira differs from Th. lira only in having a smaller body size, shorter teeth at the posterior margin of the male abdominal tergum 8, and a weaker medial swelling in the posterior half of the tergum. My examination of the types of both species confirmed that they are identical in the shape of the aedeagus. In one paratype of Th. paralira and in several specimens fitting the description of Th. lira (in details of the male tergum 8) the internal sac was everted, and rather elaborate sclerites of the internal sac (Figs. 133–134) were examined. No difference between the specimens was found. Within species, the shape of the aedeagus and the sclerites of internal sac are usually less variable than the shape of the male tergum 8. It is a common phenomenon in many groups of aleocharines for smaller male specimens to have less prominent secondary sexual features (e. g., in Stethusa dichroa (Gravenhorst, 1802) (cf. Figs. 24–26 in Gusarov 2003d); in Tropimenelytron americanum Gusarov, 2002e and Tr. californicum Gusarov, 2002e (Gusarov 2002e)). Considering that 1) the types of Th. lira and Th. paralira are identical in the shape of the aedeagus; 2) there is no gap between the male specimens with the sexual features fitting Th. lira on one side, and Th. paralira on the other (Figs. 127–132); 3) it is the smaller male specimens of Thamiaraea that have less pronounced sexual features on the tergum 8; 4) both morphs are sympatric and even were collected in the same samples (Hoebeke 1994); I synonymize Th. lira and Th. paralira.</p> <p>My examination of the lectotype of Sableta brittoni revealed that it in fact belongs to Thamiaraea and is conspecific with both Th. lira and Th. paralira. Thamiaraea brittoni is the valid name for this species. Unfortunately, Casey (1911a) misplaced this species in Sableta Casey, 1910a, a genus unrelated to Thamiaraea, and when Hoebeke (1988) published his review of Thamiaraea, he had no means of knowing that one species of Thamiaraea had already been described by Casey.</p> <p>Distribution. Thamiaraea brittoni is widely distributed in the eastern United States and Canada. It is known from Ontario, Québec, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin (Hoebeke 1994), Kansas, North Carolina (Hoebeke 1994) and Mississippi.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFDF532DCD24524EFE1EA412	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

As in Acrotona and Mocyta, in Strigota the pronotal hypomera are invisible in lateral view. However, in Strigota the punctation of abdominal terga is denser, and the pronotum is not as broad as in Mocyta and most examined species of Acrotona. Strigota also has the following unusual characters: in both sexes the basal line of the abdominal tergum 8 laterally joins the base of the tergum (Figs. 142, 145) while in other examined athetines the basal line is always separated from the tergum base (cf. Figs. 107, 110; 135, 137); in both sexes the base of the abdominal tergum 8 has two gland openings (Figs. 142, 145); and the apical margin of the male sternum 8 with a row of microsetae on its dorsal [sic!] side (Fig. 144) (like in Philhygra Mulsant &amp; Rey, 1873).</p> <p>Discussion. Casey did not specifically state in his description of Strigota that St. oppidana was the type species of Strigota; however, while designating the type species of Noverota Casey, 1910a in the same paper, Casey stated (1910a, p. 90): “The first species may be regarded as the type, as in all other cases where the type is not specifically named”.</p> <p>The type species of Strigota (St. oppidana) and Anaduosternum (Ana. brevipennis) are conspecific (see below). Therefore, Anaduosternum is a junior subjective synonym of Strigota.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFE95326CD245033FEB5A3EA	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Strigota ambigua is very similar to other Nearctic species of Strigota and can be reliably identified only by the distinct shape of the aedeagus (Figs. 149–154) and spermatheca (Figs. 147–148).</p> <p>Discussion. The types of H. ambigua, St. oppidana, St. gnava, St. verecunda, St. assueta, St. mediocris, St. vapida, St. inculta, St. placata, St. recta and Ana. brevipennis are similar in external characters and in the shape of the aedeagus and spermatheca. All these names are considered to be synonyms.</p> <p>Moore and Legner (1975) proposed the name Atheta notmani to replace the name Atheta brevipennis (Notman, 1922) (ex Anaduosternum) which was preoccupied by the name Atheta brevipennis (J. Sahlberg, 1876) (ex Homalota), listed by Bernhauer &amp; Scheerpeltz (1926) as a junior synonym of Atheta (Anopleta) arcana (Erichson, 1839). Atheta notmani is a junior synonym of Strigota ambigua.</p> <p>Distribution. Strigota ambigua is widespread across the United States. It is known from New York, Connecticut, New Jersey, North Carolina, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Texas, Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada and California.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFEA5320CD24515EFCE5A519	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

See Lohse (1974b).</p> <p>Discussion. The type material of Staphylinus canaliculatus was not examined but this is a well known European species. The holotype of Dr. cavicollis agrees completely with European specimens of Dr. canaliculata in external characters and the shape of the aedeagus, including the sclerites and diverticula of the internal sac (Figs. 155–156).</p> <p>Distribution. In North America Dr. canaliculata is known from New York (Muona 1984), Ontario, Québec, Kentucky and Alaska and appears to be to be an introduction from Eurasia. In Europe and Siberia Dr. canaliculata is a common species in natural habitats. The fact that the only known Alaskan specimen is known from Sitka and Dr. canaliculata was never collected again anywhere in Alaska, despite numerous collecting trips by Smetana, Campbell and myself, suggests that this species was introduced to Sitka by early Russian colonists, perhaps in ship ballast and never was established in continental Alaska. In eastern North America Dr. canaliculata appears to be restricted to disturbed habitats. This fact also supports the introduction hypothesis.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/03F387B2FFEF533CCD24524EFC08A699	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Pace (1989) synonymized Le. obscura with Le. canonica without having examined the type of the first species. My examination of the lectotype of Le. obscura demonstrated that it is not conspecific with Le. canonica. Leptusa obscura differs from Le. canonica in its uniform dark brown body color, its stronger pronotal punctation and its flatter pronotum. The lectotype of Le. obscura does not match the types of any other Casey species of Leptusa. This species will be redescribed when male specimens become available.</p> <p>Distribution.

See Pace (1989).</p> <p>Discussion. In his list of examined type material Pace (1989) listed a single male specimen as the holotype of U. pusio. However, in the Casey collection U. pusio is represented by two specimens from the type locality. One specimen (the lectotype) was dissected by Pace and illustrated in Figs. 579–582 (Pace 1989). The second specimen (the paralectotype) was dissected by me. My examination of the genitalia preparations of both specimens demonstrated that the illustrations by Pace (1989; Figs. 579, 582) are incorrect. The distal of the two projections on the parameral side of the median lobe illustrated by Pace in Figs. 579 and 582 does not exist. Pace mistook a small piece of dirt encased in the Canada balsam for a projection of the aedeagus. The correct drawing of the median lobe is given in Figs. 157–158. The basal of the two projections illustrated by Pace (cf. Fig. 579 in Pace 1989 and Fig. 157 in this paper) does exist. This projection is shared by two other Nearctic species of the subgenus Dysleptusa Pace, 1982 (Le. carolinensis Pace, 1989 and Le. smetanaiella Pace, 1989) (see Figs. 1686, 1691) but not by the Palaearctic species included by Pace in Dysleptusa. The type species of Dysleptusa is Leptusa fuliginosa (Aubé, 1850), a Palaearctic species without a projection. Therefore, the three Nearctic species placed by Pace (1989) in this subgenus may belong to a different lineage of Leptusa.</p> <p>Distribution.

Pace (1989) designated the lectotype of Le. brevicollis, however from the original description (Casey 1893) it is clear that Casey had a single male type of this species.

Unfortunately, the holotype of Le. laticollis, like some other Notman’s staphylinid types deposited at SIIS, is almost completely destroyed.
