Content
Distribution
Australia , New Guinea , New Zealand , Neotropics ( Mexico , Colombia , Brazil , Argentina , Chile ) and some islands ( Lord Howe , Norfolk Island , subantarctic islands ). The genus Heterothops is found cosmopolitanly, including Europe [2] .
Description
Body length about 1 cm (4 to 16 mm; Devilleferus up to 27 mm). The main color is tan to brownish black. The eyes are large, facetted, located closer to the posterior margin of the head. Wingless. Elytra shortened, wider than its length. Pronotum large trapezoid. The maxillary palps are 4-segmented, and the labial ones consist of 3 segments. The formula for the tarsi is 5-5-5 (all tarsi are 5-segmented). The frontal groove on the head is absent [3] [4] .
Some representatives of the Amblyopinina subtribe demonstrate a unique example of specialization for the staphylinid beetle family: their adults live obligately on the body of large rodents, moving in their hair, and feed on their small parasites (ticks and others) [5] . Other species live in the litter layer of tropical forests and temperate forests [2] . The Amblyopinina subtribe shows a typical Gondwana type of distribution on the planet, since they are found only in parts of the Southern Hemisphere: Australia , New Guinea , New Zealand , South America and some islands ( Lord Howe , Norfolk Island , subantarctic islands ). In addition to free-living amblyopinin, there are several genera and more than 60 species that lead a presumably mutualistic lifestyle with rodents and marsupial mammals in South America, feeding on ectoparasites in their skin. All this makes amblyopinin an extraordinary model group for studying the ecology, biogeography, and evolutionary biology of organisms in the southern hemisphere [6] . Among the owners of Amblyopinina, mammals from four families of the rodent order were noted. This is the Cricetidae family: Oryzomys Baird, Nectomys Peters, Thomasomys Coues, Chilomys Thomas, White- Haired Hamsters ( Peromyscus Gloger), Akodon Meyen, Oxymycterus Waterhouse, Phyllotis Waterhouse, Chinchillula Thomas; Agoutia family ( Dasyproctidae ): Cuniculus Brisson; Family Tuco-Tuco ( Ctenomyidae ): Tuco-Tuco ( Ctenomys De Blainville); Family of Bagged Jumpers ( Heteromyidae ): Heteromys Desmaret. In addition, the marsupials ( Marsupalia ), the Opossum family ( Didelphidae ): Didelphis Linnaeus, Metachirus Burmeister, Naked Possums ( Monodelphis Burnett), Marmosa Gray [4] were also noted on the representatives of the infraclass Marsupalia .
Systematics
About 300 species from about 20 genera [1] [4] [2] . In 1944, the American coleopterologist Charles Hamilton Sivers ( Charles Hamilton Seevers ; 1907-1965) singled out the genus Amblyopinus as a separate subfamily Amblyopininae Seevers, 1944 [3] . Today, the subfamily (tribe) is considered as a subtribe of Amblyopinina in Staphylininae ) [7] . According to other views, the subtribe Amblyopinina is accepted in a wider volume and includes other genera ( Heterothops ) from the subtribe “Quediina” (Chatzimanolis et al. 2010; Ashe and Timm, 1988; Assing and Schülke, 2012) [2] [8] [9 ] ] [10] .
