Clinidium is a genus of wrinkled bark beetles in the subfamily Rhysodinae. Most species are Neotropical, but some occur further north in North America and there is also one species in Europe and one in Japan. Two species are known from Miocene amber.
Clinidium alleni is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by R.T. & J.R. Bell in 1985. It is named for R. T. Allen, whose collection efforts have contributed to the understanding of beetle fauna in lower Central America. It is known from Cerro Jefe in Panama. The holotype is a male measuring 4 mm (0.16 in) in length.

Clinidium humboldti is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by R.T. & J.R. Bell in 1985. It is named for Alexander von Humboldt and the Humboldt Museum, from where the holotype was borrowed. It is known from "Nueva Granada", which could be in either present-day Colombia or Panama. The holotype is a female measuring 6.4 mm (0.25 in) in length.
Clinidium humile is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by R.T. Bell & J.R. Bell in 1985. It is known from "New Granada", which could be in either present-day Colombia or Panama. What now is the holotype of Clinidium humile was originally identified by Louis Alexandre Auguste Chevrolat as Clinidium cavicolle of "the other sex". The holotype is a male measuring 6.8 mm (0.27 in) in length.

Clinidium moldenkei is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by R.T. Bell & J.R. Bell in 1985. It is endemic to the Golfo Dulce region in Puntarenas Province, Costa Rica. The species is named for the coleopterist Andrew R. Moldenke, collector of the holotype.
Clinidium newtoni is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Ross T. Bell & J.R. Bell in 1985. It is known from near Pueblo Nuevo Solistahuacán in Chiapas and from Francisco Morazán and Ocotepeque Departments in Honduras. The Honduran specimens were found under bark.
Clinidium segne is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by R.T. Bell & J.R. Bell in 1985. It is known from the Aragua state in northern Venezuela. Clinidium segne females measure 4.6–5.2 mm (0.18–0.20 in) in length.
Clinidium spatulatum is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by R.T. Bell & J.R. Bell in 1985. Its type locality is Santa Rita Ridge in Colón Province, Panama. Primarily a Panamanian species, its range extends to Osa Peninsula in southeastern Costa Rica. There is also a female collected from Gorgona Island (Colombia), which could well be a distinct species endemic to that island, but which has tentatively been assigned to this species, awaiting better material.
Clinidium whiteheadi is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by R.T. & J.R. Bell in 1985. It is named for Donald R. Whitehead. It is known from Cerro Campana in Panama. The types were collected from the fruiting bodies of the slime mold Stemonitis:
Clinidium ashei is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Ross Bell & J.R. Bell in 2009 and named after entomologist James S. Ashe. It is endemic to the high mountains of western Panama.
Clinidium brusteli is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Ross Bell & J.R. Bell in 2009 and named after entomologist Hervé Brustel. It is only known from its type locality, San Vincente de Huaticocha in Loreto Canton, eastern Ecuador.
Clinidium chandleri is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Ross Bell & J.R. Bell in 2009 and named after entomologist Donald S. Chandler. It is endemic to Costa Rica and occurs in the lowland and lower mountain forests north of the continental divide.
Clinidium erwini is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Ross Bell & J.R. Bell in 2009 and named after entomologist Terry Erwin. It is endemic to Costa Rica and occurs in the forests of the Caribbean coast and inland to at least 400 m (1,300 ft) above sea level.
Clinidium centrale is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Antoine Henri Grouvelle in 1903. It is endemic to Costa Rica. Clinidium centrale measure 6–7.4 mm (0.24–0.29 in) in length.
Clinidium integrum is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Antoine Henri Grouvelle in 1903. It is known from its type locality in western Amazonas state, Brazil, and from Leticia in Amazonas Department, Colombia.
Clinidium mathani is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae. It was described by Antoine Henri Grouvelle in 1903. Originally known from the Amazon Basin of Brazil—its type locality is in the Amazonas State, near the border with Peru and Colombia, and there is another record from Amapá—it is now also known from the Colombian Andes in the Cordillera de los Picachos National Natural Park (Caquetá) and from near Inzá (Cauca). It is named after collector of the holotype, M. de Mathan.
