On the Aleocharini of Turkey, with notes on some species from adjacent regions (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae, Aleocharinae) Author Assing, Volker text Beiträge Zur Entomologie = Contributions to Entomology 2007 2007-06-30 57 1 177 209 https://www.contributions-to-entomology.org/article/view/1699 journal article 10.21248/contrib.entomol.57.1.177-209 0005-805X 5364013 1C57150F-8D4C-4B22-AF4B-8F1FBF614930 Aleochara (Ceranota) cf. erythroptera ( Figs 74-83 ) Material examined: Aydın : 1 ♂ , 15 km NNE Aydın , Imambaba T. , 37°56´38N , 27°53´40E , 1410 m , 5.IV.2006 , leg. Wunderle (cWun) . Comments: The above specimen is a small male. Measurements (in mm) and ratios: AL: 1.13; HL: 0.53; HW: 0.56; PW: 0.76; PL: 0.60; EL: 0.45; EW: 0.92; AW: 0.91; TiL: 0.59; TaL: 0.47; ML: 0.59; TL: 4.1; HL/HW: 0.95; PW/HW: 1.35; PW/PL: 1.25; EL/PL: 0.75; EW/PW: 1.22; AW/EW: 0.98; TiL/TaL: 1.26. The specimen is characterised by a relatively large head (in relation to the pronotum) ( Figs 74- 75 ), relatively short antennae ( Fig. 76 ), the weakly transverse pronotum ( Fig. 75 ), very sparse puncturation of the abdomen ( Fig. 76 ), and shallow impressions with tomentose pubescence on the male sternites IV and V ( Figs 77-78 ). The aedeagus is somewhat smaller than is usually the case in A. erythroptera seen from Turkey , but otherwise identical ( Figs 82-83 ). Based on the similarity of the male primary sexual characters, the specimen is here tentratively attributed to A. erythroptera , despite the observed differences in the external differences, especially in the puncturation of the abdomen.
