DREPANOXENUS BOS, A NEW TERMITOPHILOUS ALEOCHARINE FROM NORTH‐WESTERN AUSTRALIA (COLEOPTERA: STAPHYLINIDAE)

Abstract

An eighth species of Drepanoxenus Kistner and Watson, D. box sp. n., is described from larvae collected with an undescribed subleminean species of Drepanotermes Silvestri (Isoptera: Termitinae) in the northwest of Western Australia, and larval Drepanoxenus are keyed. It is the first record of a Drepanoxenus from nests of a subterranean species of Drepanotermes.
