Abstract

A commented catalogue of Coleoptera Staphylinidae, collected during a survey carried out in the Aspromonte district and started in 2018, is provided. The surveyed area is remarkably diverse and inhabits several wetland areas, bogs, montane streams and torrents. 19 species are considered as remarkable (new to Italy, endemic, with peculiar geographical features, inhabiting peculiar microhabitats, introduced). The list of species is integrated with further bibliographical citations of 202 taxa. Two are new to Italy (Quedius galaecianus Outerelo, 1976 e Oxypoda cristata Assing, 2006). The communities are discussed according with distribution and ecological features of the species, and the main conservational measures for the surveyed habitats are provided.
