Abstract:

The cucujoid family Endomychidae is characterized. Detailed morphology of 36 exemplar genera representing 12 recently recognized subfamilies is presented. Cladistic analysis was accomplished based on 50 taxa (47 genera from Endomychidae and Coccinellidae – thein group, and 3 genera from Helotidae, Brachypteridae and Protocucujidae – the outgroups) coded for 40 adult, morphological characters. Based on the analysis, a phylogeny of the familyis hypothesized. Results of the analysis suggest that the Endomychidae form a monophyletic taxon, which may be divided into 12 subfamilies: Danascelinae (subfam. nov.), Xenomycetinae, Endomychinae, Anamorphinae, Merophysiinae, Lycoperdininae, Stenotarsinae, Epipocinae, Eupsilobiinae, Pleganophorinae, Mycetaeinae and Leiestinae. Short diagnoses for the family and subfamilies, as well as a key to the subfamilies are provided. The following two new, sub-family synonyms are proposed: Anamorphinae Strohecker, 1953 (=Acritosomatinae Pakaluk and Ślipiński, 1995) and Merophysiinae Seidlitz, 1872 (=Holoparamecinae Seidlitz, 1888).Adamiagen. nov. (type species: A. mexicanasp. nov.) and Erotendomychus lawrenceisp.nov., are described. Type species are designated for the following genera: NitetaWeise, 1890(N. quatuordecimpunctata Weise, 1890), Oediarthrus Gerstaecker, 1858 (O. natalensis Gerstaecker, 1858) and Stenotarsoides Csiki, 1900 (S. quadrimaculatus Csiki, 1900). History of classification and known facts concerning the biology of the family are provided.
