Overview of Staphylinidae with placement of possible austral target taxa for monography; subfamily groups after Lawrence & Newton 1982, Newton & Thayer 1995. Subfamily annotation: partly-austral | all austral
For candidate taxa:
- L=(some) larvae described
L=(some) larvae available
L?=tentatively identified larvae available.
Numbers updated March 2003.
