Baeocera inusitata is a species of beetle in the family Staphylinidae. This species is found in south-eastern Brazil (Minas Gerais).
Adults reach a length of about 1.09–1.31 mm and have a dark brown body.
Adults have been collected from Ceratiomyxa fruticulosa on a fallen Pinus tree and other two logs, also covered with C. fruticulosa.
The species epithet is a Latin word meaning ‘unusual’, referring to the distinctive morphology of the female ovipositor. [1]
