Termitopaediini is a tribe in the rove beetle subfamily Aleocharinae. Much of it was classified and documented by Kistner in 1977. [1]

Rove beetle Family of beetles

The rove beetles are a family (Staphylinidae) of beetles, primarily distinguished by their short elytra that typically leave more than half of their abdominal segments exposed. With roughly 63,000 species in thousands of genera, the group is currently recognized as the largest extant family of organisms. It is an ancient group, with fossilized rove beetles known from the Triassic, 200 million years ago, and possibly even earlier if the genus Leehermania proves to be a member of this family. They are an ecologically and morphologically diverse group of beetles, and commonly encountered in terrestrial ecosystems.

In biological classification, a subfamily is an auxiliary (intermediate) taxonomic rank, next below family but more inclusive than genus. Standard nomenclature rules end subfamily botanical names with "-oideae", and zoological names with "-inae".

Aleocharinae Subfamily of beetles

The Aleocharinae are one of the largest subfamilies of rove beetles, containing over 12,000 species. Previously subject to large-scale debate whether the subfamily deserved the familial status, it is now considered one of the largest subfamilies of rove beetles.

Below are a list of some of the genera this tribe contains:

Dioxeuta is a genus of aleocharine rove beetle in the tribe Termitopaediini.

Protermitobia is a monotypic aleocharine genus in the tribe Termitopaediini. The sole species is Protermitobia thoracotoxenus.

Termitolinus is a monotypic genus of Aleocharinae, a subfamily of rove beetle, in the tribe Termitopaediini. The sole species is Termitolinus blandus.
