Cyrtoquediini Brunke & Solodovnikov, 2016

Diagnosis.

Cyrtoquediini (as recently redefined by Brunke et al. (2021)) can be recognized among other Staphylininae based on the following combination of characters: microsculpture on disc of head and pronotum absent; obvious presence of both posterior frontal and basal punctures (Brunke et al., 2019: fig. 1); profemora with apical row of lateroventral spines (near joint with protibia) (Brunke et al. 2021: fig. 8B); protibia without subapical notch (Brunke et al. 2021: fig. 8C); metatarsomeres 1-4 flattened and trapezoidal, not elongate and cylindrical. Most genera in Cyrtoquediini can also be recognized by the unique row of coarse, impressed setose punctures on the elytral epipleuron (Brunke et al. 2016: fig. 4).
