Abstract

A revision of the staphylinid subfamily Xantholininae (Coleoptera) of America north of Mexico is presented including a historical review, a discussion of diagnostic characters and techniques, and some conclusive remarks, mostly on the zoogeography of this group in North America.Twenty-eight genera and 105 species are recognized. Six genera and 47 species are described as new, one new name is proposed for a species in the genus Oxybleptes, and new combinations are proposed for 25 species.Nematolinus Casey, 1906, and Oligolinus Casey, 1906, are placed in synonymy with Lithocharodes Sharp, 1876; Leiolinus Casey, 1906, with Hesperolinus Casey, 1906; Paraphallus Bordoni, 1972, with Xantholinus Dejean, 1821, and Phalacrolinus Coiffait, 1972, is placed in synonymy with Hypnogyra Casey, 1906. On the specific level, Platyprosopus texanus Moore, 1963, is placed in synonymy with P. mexicanus Sharp, 1887; Diochus brevipennis Casey, 1906, D. thoracicus Casey, 1906, and D. pallidiceps Casey, 1906, with D. schaumi Kraatz, 1860; Baptolinus fraternus Casey, 1906, with Atrecus punctiventris (Fall, 1901); Nudobius nubipennis Casey, 1906, and Gyrophypnus gilvipennis Casey, 1906, with Nudobius cephalus (Say, 1834); Nudobius limbalis, Casey, 1906, N. corticalis Casey, 1906, and N. debilis Casey, 1906, with N. pugetanus Casey, 1906; Nudobius phoenicis Casey, 1906, with N. arizonicus Casey, 1906; Nudobius elegantulus Casey, 1906, with N. luridipennis Casey, 1906; Leptacinus nigritulus LeConte, 1880, with L. pusillus (Stephens, 1833); Lithocharodes pallidus Casey, 1906, with L. nigripennis (LeConte, 1863); Hesperolinus angustus Casey, 1906, and H. pomonae Casey, 1906, with Linohesperus nanus (LeConte, 1880); Hesperolinus bicolor Casey, 1906, with Linohesperus brunnescens (LeConte, 1880); Stictolinus aequalis Casey, 1906, with S. grandiceps (LeConte, 1863); Stictolinus scolopaceus Casey, 1906, with S. flavipes (LeConte, 1863); Leiolinus tarsalis Casey, 1906, and L. uteanus Casey, 1906, with Hesperolinus parcus (LeConte, 1863); Xantholinus nitidicollis Reitter, 1908, and X. scoticus Joy, 1913, with Gyrohypnus angustatus Stephens, 1832; Xantholinus temporalis LeConte, 1880, and X. floridae Duvivier, 1883, with Neohypnus attenuatus Erichson, 1839; Gyrohypnus bipartitus Casey, 1906, and G. infumatus Casey, 1906, with Neohypnus dimidiatus (LeConte, 1880); Gyrohypnus oregonus Casey, 1906, and G. protractus Casey, 1906, with Neohypnus obscurus (Erichson, 1839); Gyrohypnus macilentus Casey, 1906, with Neohypnus hamatus (Say, 1834); Gyrohypnus mollinus Casey, 1906, with Neohypnus pusillus (Sachse, 1852); Gyrohypnus fucosus Casey, 1884, with Neohypnus fusciceps (LeConte, 1880); Xantholinus aequalis Fauvel, 1898, with X. linearis (Olivier, 1794); Xantholinus miguelensis Méquignon, 1942, and Xestolinus oregonus Fender, 1946, with X. longiventris Heer, 1839; Hypnogyra vernicata Casey, 1906, with H. gularis (LeConte, 1880); Xestolinus oviceps Casey, 1906, X. frontalis Hatch, 1957, and Xantholinus indianensis Blatchley, 1910, with Xestolinus abdominalis Casey, 1906.Neotypes are designated for Nudobius cephalus (Say), Neohypnus hamatus (Say), and Neohypnus pusillus (Sachse).Lectotypes are designated for Platyprosopus mexicanus Sharp, Diochus schaumi Kr., D. brevipennis Csy., D. thoracicus Csy., D. pallidiceps Csy., Atrecus americanus (Csy.), A. punctiventris (Fall), A. fraternus (Csy.), A. quadripennis (Csy.), Parothius californicus (Mannh.), Thyreocephalus nigerrimus (Sharp), Nudobius palliatus (Melsh.), N. nubipennis Csy., N. pugetanus Csy., N. limbalis Csy., N. corticalis Csy., N. debilis Csy., N. arizonicus Csy., N. phoenicis Csy., N. luridipennis Csy., N. elegantulus Csy., Leptacinus nigritulus LeC., L. seriatus LeC., Stenistoderus rubripennis (LeC.), Lithocharodes ruficollis (LeC.), L. pallidus Csy., L. longicollis (LeC.), Habrolinus tahoensis Csy., Linohesperus piceus (Csy.), L. borealis (Csy.), L. alticola (Csy.), L. angustus (Csy.), L. pomonae (Csy.), L. brunnescens (LeC.), L. bicolor (Csy.), Stictolinus grandiceps (LeC.), S. aequalis Csy., S. flavipes (LeC.), S. scolopaceus Csy., S. franciscanus Csy., Hesperolinus parcus (LeC.), Gyrohypnus obsidianus (Melsh.), Neohypnus attenuatus (Er.), N. temporalis (LeC.), N. dimidiatus (LeC.), N. infumatus (Csy.), N. bipartitus (Csy.), N. picipennis (LeC.), N. sanguinipennis (LeC.), N. obscurus (Er.), N. oregonus (Csy.), N. protractus (Csy.), N. macilentus (Csy.), N. lustrans (Csy.), N. mollinus (Csy.), N. fragilis (Csy.), N. linearis (Blatchley), N. fusciceps (LeC.), N. melanops (Csy.), N. emmesus (Grav.), N. sanguinolentus (Melsh.), N. luteiventris (Csy.), Hypnogyra vernicata Csy., H. micans Csy., Xestolinus abdominalis Csy., X. oviceps Csy., and X. indianensis (Blatchley).Keys to tribes, genera, and species are provided.

Résumé

L'auteur présente une révision de la sous-famille des Xantholininés, famille des Staphylinidés (Coléoptères), du nord du Mexique, ainsi qu'une étude historique, une discussion des caractères et techniques diagnostiques, et quelques observations concluantes, en particulier sur la zoogéographie de ce groupe en Amérique du Nord.

L'ouvrage reconnaît 28 genres et 105 espèces. Six genres et 47 espèces sont décrits pour la première fois, un nouveau nom est proposé pour une espèce du genre Oxybleptes et de nouvelles combinaisons sont avancées pour 25 espèces.

Plusieurs noms de genres et d'espèces ont été placés en synonymie et des lectotypes ont été désignés chez de nombreuses espèces. Ces cas ne seront pas répétés ici et on a qu'à consulter d'abstract si-dessus pour la liste détaillée.

L'ouvrage présente des clefs d'identification des tribus, genres et espèces. Les tribus et les genres sont décrits; chaque espèce est décrite et illustrée, toutes les données bionomiques et distributionnelles disponibles sont présentées et les relevés de distribution sont cartographiés.
