(Coleoptera Staphylinidae Pselaphinae)

Abstract - A new species from Sardinia of the genus Imirus (Coleoptera Staphylinidae
Pselaphinae).
Imirus mirabilis n. sp. is described upon three females collected in Sardinia, near
Baunei (Ogliastra Prov.). In despite of the efforts of the collectors, the male was not
yet found, but the exceptional external morphological characteristics of the females
allowed to the description of the new species.
The genus is new for the Italian fauna; till today it was known only for single records
from Northern Spain (I. outereloi Besuchet, 1980), Southern France (I. lavagnei Dodero,
1904) and Corse (I. permirus Saulcy, 1877).
Key words: Coleoptera, Staphylinidae, Pselaphinae, Imirus, Sardegna.
