Species review of the genus Gnypeta Thomson from Canada, Alaska and Greenland (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae, Aleocharinae): systematics, bionomics and distribution
A review of the rove beetle species of the genus Gnypeta Thomson from Canada, Alaska and Greenland is presented. Eighteen species are reported from Canada of which 7 are described as new to science, 3 species described from the Palaearctic region are reported in North America for the first time: G....
