Thaumastocephalus

Jałoszyński, Paweł, Hlaváč, Peter & Anlaş, Sinan, 2023, Percussiopalpus gen. n. from Turkey, a free-living relative of cave-dwelling Thaumastocephalus, and revised placement of Thaumastocephalini (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Pselaphinae), Zootaxa 5277 (1), pp. 71-90 : 83

Redescription of Thaumastocephalus

The type genus of Thaumastocephalini has not been adequately described to allow for a discussion of its placement in a supetribe. In order to fill this gap, we provide an illustrated redescription based primarily on a male of an undescribed species from the Croatian Dinarides, with variation from the other described species incorporated.
