Monograph of Palaearctic, Oriental, and New Guinean Pinophilina (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Paederinae)

The tribe Pinophilini was made available by Nordmann (1837), who separated the „Pinophiliniformes“ from the „Lathrobiiformes“ and originally included three genera, Pinophilus Gravenhorst, 1802, Araeocerus Nordmann, 1837, and Gymnurus Nordmann, 1837 (now a junior synonym of Taenodema Laporte de Castelnau, 1835). Without providing diagnostic characters, Bernhauer & Schubert (1912) subsequently divided the Pinophilini into two subtribes, the „Pinophili“ and the „Procirri“, assigning Pinophilus, Araeocerus, Taenodema, and Lathropinus Sharp, 1886 to the former, and Procirrus Latreille, 1829, Eucirrus Fauvel, 1895 (now a synonym of Paraprocirrus Bernhauer, 1923), Oedodactylus Fairmaire & Germaine, 1862, Palaminus Erichson, 1839, and Oedichirus Erichson, 1839 to the latter. This subtribal concept was not, at least not explicitly, adopted by Cameron (1931) and Fagel (1963, 1971) in their synopses of the Pinophilini of British India and Africa, respectively. Both authors separated the Pinophilini from other Paederinae primarily based on the large, fusiform or securiform maxillary palpomere IV. While Cameron (1931) attributed all the Pinophilini with paratergites on the abdominal segments III-VI to the genus Pinophilus and those without to Procirrus, Oedichirus, and Palaminus, Fagel (1963, 1971) recognized ten genera with paratergites in the African fauna, eight in the „Groupe de Pinophilus Gravenhorst“ (Pinophilus, Phinopilus Blackwelder, 1952, Pinoritus Fagel, 1963, Pinoragus Fagel 1963, Gridellius Fagel, 1963, Pinocharis Fagel, 1963, Pinophilinus Eichelbaum, 1908, Pinogalus Fagel, 1963), plus Leleupauchmetes Fagel, 1957 and Levasseurius Fagel, 1971.
