“…They are small, highly mobile, and common in organic litters. Humans often inadvertently introduce them into other regions of the world with imported domestic livestock, plants, and soil (Klimaszewski et al 2002a). The introduced and highly competitive predatory species may threaten native species and cause imbalances in previously established predator-prey relationships (Klimaszewski et al 2002a).…”

“…The species-rich tribe Athetini Casey is known to have many adventive species all over the world (Muona 1984;Klimaszewski and Peck 1986;Sivasubramaniam et al 1997;Klimaszewski et al 2002a;Gusarov 2003). Muona (1984) recorded 22 Palaearctic aleocharine species occurring in North America, including 17 athetines, but only 7 of these species were recorded from Canada (Gnypeta caerula (Sahlberg), Dochmonota rudiventris (Eppelsheim), Geostiba circellaris (Gravenhorst), Philhygra botanicarum (Muona) (we now regard P. botanicarum as a Holarctic species, hence it is not included in the list of adventive species in Appendix A), Mocyta fungi (Gravenhorst), Boreophilia islandica (Kraatz), and Amischa analis (Gravenhorst)), and the rest were recorded from the United States.…”

Eight additional adventive aleocharine beetles, native to the Palaearctic region, are reported from Canada, five of them for the first time. They belong to three tribes: Crataraea suturalis (Mannerheim) (Nova Scotia, Saskatchewan, British Columbia) and "Meotica pallens (Redtenbacher)" (Ontario, British Columbia) belong to Oxypodini; Atheta (Chaetida) longicornis (Gravenhorst) (Nova Scotia, Quebec), Atheta (Thinobaena) vestita (Gravenhorst) (New Brunswick), Dalotia coriaria (Kraatz) (Alberta), Dinaraea angustula (Gyllenhal) (Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, Alberta), and Nehemitropia lividipennis (Mannerheim) (New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, Ontario) belong to Athetini; and Homalota plana (Gyllenhal) (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick) belongs to Homalotini. These species have likely been introduced into Canada from Europe by various anthropogenic activities, and their bionomics and possible modes of introduction are discussed. For each species, a short diagnosis and habitus and genital images are provided to assist with identification. The habitus and genital images are presented here for the first time for these species in North America. New United States records are not included in the abstract. 79Résumé-Huit espèces additionnelles de coléoptères aleocharines, originaires de la région Paléarctique, sont rapportées pour le Canada, parmi lesquelles cinq sont mentionnées pour la première fois. Elles appartiennent aux trois tribus suivantes : Oxypodini (2 espèces) -Crataraea suturalis (Mannerheim) (Nouvelle-Écosse, Saskatchewan, Colombie-Britannique), « Meotica pallens (Redtenbacher) » (Ontario, Colombie-Britannique); Athetini (5 espèces) -Atheta (Chaetida) longicornis (Gravenhorst) (Nouvelle-Écosse, Québec), Atheta (Thinobaena) vestita (Gravenhorst) (Nouveau-Brunswick), Dalotia coriaria (Kraatz) (Alberta), Dinaraea angustula (Gyllenhal) (Nouvelle-Écosse, Île-du-Prince-Édouard, Québec, Alberta), Nehemitropia lividipennis (Mannerheim) (Nouvelle-Écosse, Île-du-Prince-Édouard, Nouveau-Brunswick, Québec, Ontario); and Homalotini (1 espèce) -Homalota plana (Gyllenhal) (Nouvelle-Écosse, Nouveau-Can.

“…They are present jointly, the latter probably as an introduced species, in some Atlantic islands and in the coastal region of Europe with Atlantic-Mediterranean climate. Atheta immucronata even occurs in the Tristan da Cunha Archipelago (Klimaszewski et al, 2002;Pace, 2006). Several species currently attributed to other athetine subgenera, especially Xenota, probably also belong to Mycetota.…”

Remarks on some European Aleocharinae, with description of a new Rhopaletes species from Croatia (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) Based on an examination of type and non-type material, ten species-group names are synonymised: Atheta mediterranea G. Benick, 1941, Aloconota carpathica Jeannel et Jarrige, 1949 and Atheta carpatensis Tichomirova, 1973 with Aloconota mihoki (Bernhauer, 1913); Amischa jugorum Scheerpeltz, 1956 with Amischa analis (Gravenhorst, 1802); Amischa strupii Scheerpeltz, 1967 with Amischa bifoveolata (Mannerheim, 1830); Atheta tricholomatobia V. B. Semenov, 2002 with Atheta boehmei Linke, 1934; Atheta palatina G. Benick, 1974 and Atheta palatina G. Benick, 1975 with Atheta dilaticornis (Kraatz, 1856); Atheta degenerata G. Benick, 1974 and Atheta degenerata G. Benick, 1975 with Atheta testaceipes (Heer, 1839). A new name, Atheta velebitica nom. nov. is proposed for Atheta serotina Ádám, 2008, a junior primary homonym of Atheta serotina Blackwelder, 1944. A revised key for the Central European species of the Aloconota sulcifrons group is provided. Comments on the separation of the males of Amischa bifoveolata and A. analis are given. A key for the identification of Amischa species occurring in Hungary and its close surroundings is presented. Remarks are presented about the relationships of Alevonota Thomson, 1858 and Enalodroma Thomson, 1859. The taxonomic status of Oxypodera Bernhauer, 1915 and Mycetota Ádám, 1987 is discussed. The specific status of Pella hampei (Kraatz, 1862) is debated. Remarks are presented about the relationships of Alevonota Thomson, 1858, as well as Mycetota Ádám, 1987, Oxypodera Bernhauer, 1915 and Rhopaletes Cameron, 1939. The publication date of several Atheta species described by G. Benick is discussed. Aloconota mihoki, Amischa forcipata, A. filum and Atheta boehmei are reported from Hungary, Croatia and Romania, respectively, for the first time. A new species, Rhopaletes slavoniae sp. n. is described from Croatia.

A peer-reviewed open-access journal Diglotta mersa (Haliday) and Halobrecta flavipesAbstract Diglotta mersa (Haliday) of the Diglottini, a western Palaearctic species, is reported for the fi rst time from the Atlantic coast of North America (Canada, New Brunswick). It was found in fi ne gravel under small (10-15 cm diameter) rocks in the intertidal zone, approximately 2 m below the mean high tide mark. A description, and images of the external body, median lobe of aedeagus, spermatheca and terminal segments are provided. New distributional and bionomic data for Halobrecta fl avipes Th omson, a coastal species of the Athetini Casey, are presented.
