Makranczy, Gy.: Systematics and phylogenetic relationships of the genera in the Carpelimus group (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Oxytelinae)

The problem of representative taxa As explained before, in this subfamily the type species of certain genera are not at all representative of the structural diversity of the included species. Therefore a species-group based approach was chosen, in which presumptive basal members of the most distinctive lineages were chosen as representatives to be used in the analysis, irrespective of the size of the taxon. This selection was done on the basis of ongoing or finished revisionary projects and the careful evaluation of character variation. 1. Platydeleaster bimaculatus SCHÜLKE, 2003 2.
