Euconnus is a genus of rove beetles in the family Staphylinidae. There are more than 2,500 described species in Euconnus, found worldwide. [2] [1] [3]

Contents

37 subgenera of Euconnus were formerly recognized, [4] but recent research has resulted in fewer than 20 genera. [5] [6] [2]

Euconnus subgenera

According to Catalog of Life (2025) and StaphBase, these 11 subgenera are members of Euconnus. [2]

About 1200 species are unassigned to subgenus. About 1000 species are members of the subgenus Euconnus, Tetramelus contains 229 species, and none of the remaining subgenera have more than 40 species. Further research will likely change these numbers in the future. [2] [5] [6]

Euconnus species

These species are members of the genus Euconnus. [2]
