Description
Summary:<p>(*) 216° contribution to the knowledge of the Staphylinidae</p><p><em>Bruxneria lamingtoniana</em> n. gen. n. sp. (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae) from Queensland and New South Wales are described and figured. The new genus is similar to <em>Gyrohypnus</em> Leach, 1819 and <em>Neohypnus</em> Coiffait and Saiz, 1964, but differs by some external characters. Its distinctly dilated anterior tarsi appear to put it next to <em>Notolinus</em> Casey, 1906. Some new records are listed.</p>
