The mature larvae of the rove beetles (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) Lathrobium lineatocolle Scriba and Tetartopeus quadratus (Paykull) are described for the first time, and the larva of Paederus littoralis Gravenhorst is redescribed. Detailed illustrations of their structural features are provided. The description of T. quadratus is the first for that genus. Diagnostic larval, morphological characters for Paederus, Lathrobium, and Tetartopeus are proposed. Based on the earlier published and new data, morphological comparisons at the subtribal and genus levels within the subfamily Paederinae are given. The principal differences among subtribes and genera involve structures located on the head, but several relate to abdominal sclerites and urogomphi. Based on the current data, the previously proposed characters diagnostic for the subfamily Paederinae are verified. A status of Paederidus and Tetartopeus as genera as opposed to their subgeneric status within Paederus and Lathrobium, respectively, was confirmed.
首次描述了隐翅虫科(鞘翅目:隐翅虫科)的细纹隐翅虫Lathrobium lineatocolle Scriba和方胸隐翅虫Tetartopeus quadratus(佩库尔)的成熟幼虫,并重新描述了海滨梭毒隐翅虫Paederus littoralis Gravenhorst的幼虫。提供了它们结构特征的详细插图。对方胸隐翅虫的描述是该属的首次描述。提出了梭毒隐翅虫属、隐翅虫属和方胸隐翅虫属幼虫的诊断形态特征。根据早期发表的数据和新数据,对隐翅虫亚科内的亚族和属水平进行了形态比较。亚族和属之间的主要差异涉及头部的结构,但也有一些与腹部骨片和尾突有关。根据目前的数据,验证了先前提出的隐翅虫亚科诊断特征。确认了方胸隐翅虫属和方胸隐翅虫属分别作为独立属的地位,而不是它们在梭毒隐翅虫属和隐翅虫属内的亚属地位。
