摘要

The genus Stenopholea Herman, 1969 (Staphylinidae: Paederinae) includes 11 species restricted to the Neotropical region, with species recorded in Brazil, Mexico, and Ecuador. Most species predominantly inhabit high-altitude terrain. Besides Stenopholea, the subtribe Dolicaonina includes 18 other genera, and to date, the larvae of this subtribe have not been formally described. In recent surveys in high-altitude grounds in Brazil, we collected adults and larva of a new species of Stenopholea, S. itatiaia sp. nov. herein described, marking the first description of a larva for the subtribe Dolicaonina. This species is the first record of the genus for Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and a distributional map for the species of Stenopholea is also presented. Additionally, the Paederinae species Lathrobium franckei Wendeler, 1956 is transferred here to Stenopholea and synonymized with S. thyma Herman, 1981, establishing a new combination: Stenopholea franckei (Wendeler, 1956) comb. nov.
