03B287E1FFE9FFCC0BDBFB67FE56766F.taxon	description	C o m m e n t: The above material confirms the - previously uncertain (ASSING 2009) - presence of this recently described species in Hungary. The specimen from Romania represents a new country record.	en	Assing, V. (2011): A new species of the Aleochara laevigata group from Spain, with notes on A. rambouseki LIKOVSKÝ and additional records (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Aleocharinae).

03B287E1FFE9FFCC0BDBFC65FE24748C.taxon	description	C o m m e n t: Until recently, A. laevigata had been confounded with other species of the A. laevigata group, so that its distribution requires revision. In Turkey, it was previously known from several provinces in western, northern, and eastern Anatolia (ASSING 2007, 2009).	en	Assing, V.

03B287E1FFEAFFC90BDBFF4AFD9D7132.taxon	description	D e s c r i p t i o n: Body length 4.2 - 5.0 mm. Coloration: head, pronotum, and abdomen blackish; elytra blackish-brown, posteriorly near sutural angle at most indistinctly paler, without reddish spot; femora and tibiae blackish-brown, tarsi brown; antennae blackish, with antennomeres I-III dark-brown; maxillary palpi dark-brown, with palpomere IV (including apical pseudosegment) reddish. Habitus relatively slender (Fig. 1). Whole dorsal aspect of body without microsculpture (Figs 2, 4 - 5). Head with very fine and sparse punctation. Eyes large, but weakly convex, somewhat longer than postocular region in dorsal view (Fig. 2). Maxillary palpomere III moderately slender, approximately 2.5 - 3.0 times as long as broad. Antennae short (Fig. 3), approximately 0.8 mm long; antennomeres V-X strongly transverse. Pronotum approximately 1.35 times as wide as long and 1.6 times as wide as head; posterior angles rounded, indistinct (Fig. 2); punctation fine, but less so than that of head, and sparse (Fig. 4). Elytra approximately 0.71 - 0.75 times as long as pronotum; posterior margin not distinctly sinuate near lateral angles; punctation much coarser and denser than that of pronotum (Fig. 5). Hind wings fully developed. Abdomen somewhat narrower than pronotum; punctation rather dense and coarse.: posterior margin of tergite VIII concave in the middle; posterior margin of sternite VIII weakly and obtusely produced in the middle, with fringe of long thin marginal setae; median lobe of aedeagus shaped as in Figs 6 - 8, base of ventral process somewhat bulging in lateral view; apical internal structures very weakly sclerotized, barely noticeable (Fig. 9).: posterior margin of tergite VIII very indistinctly concave; posterior margin of sternite VIII broadly convex and with fringe of shorter and stouter marginal setae; spermatheca as in Fig. 10. E t y m o l o g y: The specific epithet is the past participle of the Latin verb inescare (to bait) and refers to the circumstances of collection. C o m p a r a t i v e n o t e s: The new species is readily distinguished from A. laevigata by the shorter antennae, somewhat less oblong maxillary palpomeres III, the different coloration of the elytra (in A. laevigata posteriorly usually with a distinct reddish spot), the shape of the spermatheca (shorter proximal portion of the capsule, differently shaped distal portion), and particularly the morphology of the aedeagus (shapes of ventral process, flagellum, and apical internal structures). The aedeagus most resembles that of A. falcata (Russia), from which A. inescata is distinguished by the more slender body, the distinctly shorter antennae (A. falcata: approximately 1.1 mm) with much more transverse antennomeres V-X, the less oblong maxillary palpomeres III (A. falcata: more than three times as long as wide), the coloration of the elytra (A. falcata: posteriorly with reddish spot), and by the more weakly sclerotized and differently shaped apical internal structures of the aedeagus. The habitus (including the morphology of the antennae) and coloration are most similar to those of A. lonae (southern Balkans), from which A. inescata is separated by the different morphology of the aedeagus (broader apex and less bulging base of ventral process in lateral view; differently shaped crista apicalis; weakly sclerotized and differently shaped apical internal structures). For illustrations of the previously known species of the A. laevigata group see ASSING (2009). D i s t r i b u t i o n a n d n a t u r a l h i s t o r y: Thetypelocalityissituatedin Aragón, Western Pyrenees, northern Spain. The specimens were baited with pigeon dung at an altitude of approximately 900 m.	en	Assing, V.

03B287E1FFECFFC90BDBFE0AFD5D7212.taxon	description	C o m m e n t: The known distribution of this recently described, nidicolous species is confined to Ukraine and eastern Anatolia (ASSING 2009).	en	Assing, V.

03B287E1FFECFFC80BDBFDEAFD37724A.taxon	description	C o m m e n t: The original description is based on a single female holotype from " Macedonia: Perister, alpin " (LIKOVSKÝ 1964). Aleochara rambouseki somewhat resembles species of the A. sparsa group (Fig. 11), without distinct microsculpture on the forebody (Fig. 12), rather stout antennae (Fig. 13), and distinctly punctate anterior impressions on the abdominal tergites III-V (Fig. 14), but is distinguished by uniformly dark-yellowish elytra. The spermatheca is of simple morphology and not very distinctive (Fig. 15). It is similar to that of A. hamulata ASSING 2009 of the A. cornuta group. Both species, however, are separated based on external characters. Aleochara rambouseki is distinctly smaller, has much shorter antennae with more transverse antennomeres, yellowish (not reddish) elytra, reddish-brown legs, and a less coarsely and more sparsely punctate abdomen. Nevertheless, the possibility that the holotype of A. rambouseki represents an aberrant, nanistic specimen and that this specimen is conspecific with the type material of A. hamulata cannot be ruled out completely. Males from the vicinity of the type locality would be needed to clarify this.	en	Assing, V.
