Abstract

"Eppelsheimius is a small genus of beetles that occurs in arid regions from northern Africa to southwestern Asia. The species share characters with Planeustomus, Manda, and Bledius. Evidence is presented that Bledius and Eppelsheimius are sister groups. The genus has two species, E. pirazzolii and E. miricollis, that are distinguished by many characters. Both species are variable. The genus and species are described and illustrated and their distributions described. One species, E. persicus, is newly synonymized with E. pirazzolii"--P. [1].
