A new termitophilous genus of Lomechusini (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Aleocharinae) from Brazil, and the ecological niche modeling of its host association

Carlos Moreno, Amanda Montanhini, Juan Mateo Rivera-Pérez, Mauricio M. Rocha, Ruan F. Da-Silva

Editorial summary

The authors establish a new termitophilous genus and species from Brazil and analyse its association with the host termite through ecological niche modelling. The record retains the source's unresolved subtribal placement rather than assigning one in the public hierarchy.
