Remarks.
The
holotype
of
Gyrophaena puber
and one
syntype
of
Aleochara semifusca
in BMNH were confirmed
and labelled by J. Klimaszewski in Klimaszewski & Crosby (1997). Bernhauer did not indicate the number of
specimens examined for naming
Silusa (Stenusa) arrowi
.
In order to stabilize this name a
lectotype
and one
paralectotype
are
here designated
for the two
syntypes
of
Silusa (Stenusa) arrowi
