See Lohse 1974c (as Dasyglossa prospera ); Lohse et al. 1990 (as De. congruens ). Discussion. There is some controversy on how many species of Devia occur in North America. Bernhauer and Scheerpeltz (1926) listed Das. prospera as a single valid species of Dasyglossa and considered it as a Holarctic species. They listed Das. angularis (Mäklin in Mannerheim, 1853) and Das. congruens (both described from North America) as synonyms of Das. prospera. Moore and Legner (1975) followed Bernhauer and Scheerpeltz (1926). Seevers (1978) listed De. congruens and De. prospera as separate valid species, both represented in North America. Muona (1984) confirmed that De. prospera occurred in North America but did not comment on the status of De. congruens , perhaps because he did not have an opportunity to examine the type of the latter species. Lohse and Smetana (1985) designated the lectotype of Myrmedonia angularis Mäklin in Mannerheim, 1853 and transferred it to the genus Lypoglossa Fenyes, 1918 in the tribe Athetini. They considered De. prospera and De. congruens as separate species and illustrated the aedeagi for both. Lohse and Smetana (1985) were mostly interested in clarifying the status of My. angularis and provided no information on the localities of the illustrated specimens; nor did Lohse and Smetana discuss the geographical distribution of De. prospera and De. congruens . In a later paper (Lohse et al. 1990) dealing with the Arctic North American aleocharines Lohse mentioned only De. congruens . Unfortunately, he did not explicitly state whether, in his opinion, De. prospera occurred in North America. Ashe (Newton et al. 2000) states that only one species of Devia ( De. congruens ) occurs in North America. My examination of the types of Oxypoda prospera and O. congruens , as well as additional specimens did not reveal any differences between the specimens from the Nearctic and Palaearctic Regions in the shape of the aedeagus and the sclerites of its internal sac. The drawings in the paper by Lohse and Smetana (1985: Figs. 22–23) are very schematic and the difference between them results mostly from different extent of the evertion of the internal sac in the two preparations. I consider De. congruens to be a synonym of De. prospera , a species with Holarctic distribution and the single valid species in the genus Devia . Distribution. Devia prospera has a circumpolar distribution. In North America De. prospera is known from Canada (British Columbia, Northwest Territories (Lohse et al. 1990), Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario and Labrador) and the United States (Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan). : Published as part of Gusarov, Vladimir I., 2003, Revision of some types of North American aleocharines (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Aleocharinae), with synonymic notes, pp. 1-134 in Zootaxa 353 (1) on pages 20-23, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.353.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/5019783 : {"references": ["Erichson, W.

See Lohse 1974c (as Dasyglossa prospera ); Lohse et al. 1990 (as De. congruens ). Discussion. There is some controversy on how many species of Devia occur in North America. Bernhauer and Scheerpeltz (1926) listed Das. prospera as a single valid species of Dasyglossa and considered it as a Holarctic species. They listed Das. angularis (Mäklin in Mannerheim, 1853) and Das. congruens (both described from North America) as synonyms of Das. prospera. Moore and Legner (1975) followed Bernhauer and Scheerpeltz (1926). Seevers (1978) listed De. congruens and De. prospera as separate valid species, both represented in North America. Muona (1984) confirmed that De. prospera occurred in North America but did not comment on the status of De. congruens , perhaps because he did not have an opportunity to examine the type of the latter species. Lohse and Smetana (1985) designated the lectotype of Myrmedonia angularis Mäklin in Mannerheim, 1853 and transferred it to the genus Lypoglossa Fenyes, 1918 in the tribe Athetini. They considered De. prospera and De. congruens as separate species and illustrated the aedeagi for both. Lohse and Smetana (1985) were mostly interested in clarifying the status of My. angularis and provided no information on the localities of the illustrated specimens; nor did Lohse and Smetana discuss the geographical distribution of De. prospera and De. congruens . In a later paper (Lohse et al. 1990) dealing with the Arctic North American aleocharines Lohse mentioned only De. congruens . Unfortunately, he did not explicitly state whether, in his opinion, De. prospera occurred in North America. Ashe (Newton et al. 2000) states that only one species of Devia ( De. congruens ) occurs in North America. My examination of the types of Oxypoda prospera and O. congruens , as well as additional specimens did not reveal any differences between the specimens from the Nearctic and Palaearctic Regions in the shape of the aedeagus and the sclerites of its internal sac. The drawings in the paper by Lohse and Smetana (1985: Figs. 22–23) are very schematic and the difference between them results mostly from different extent of the evertion of the internal sac in the two preparations. I consider De. congruens to be a synonym of De. prospera , a species with Holarctic distribution and the single valid species in the genus Devia . Distribution. Devia prospera has a circumpolar distribution. In North America De. prospera is known from Canada (British Columbia, Northwest Territories (Lohse et al. 1990), Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario and Labrador) and the United States (Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan). : Published as part of Gusarov, Vladimir I., 2003, Revision of some types of North American aleocharines (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Aleocharinae), with synonymic notes, pp. 1-134 in Zootaxa 353 (1) on pages 20-23, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.353.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/5019783 : {"references": ["Erichson, W.
