On the Staphylinidae of La Gomera (Canary Islands), with descriptions of four new species (Coleoptera).

Bei Freilanduntersuchungen auf der Insel La Gomera wurden mehr als 45 Staphylinidenarten nachgewiesen, davon mindestens 31 Kanarenendemiten oder Inselendemiten von La Gomera. Vier Arten, allesamt sehr wahrscheinlich Inselendemiten, werden beschrieben und von nahverwandten Taxa unterschieden: Micropeplus gomerensis sp. n., Leptobium gomerense sp. n., Oligota stefaniae sp. n. und Alevonota sollemnis sp. n. Die Genitalien sowie weitere Differentialmerkmale werden abgebildet.StichwörterColeoptera, Staphylinidae, Micropeplus, Leptobium, Oligota, Alevonota, Palaearctic, Canary Islands, La Gomera, taxonomy, new species, endemism.Nomenklatorische Handlungensollemnis Assing, 1999 (Alevonota), spec. n.gomerense Assing, 1999 (Leptobium), spec. n.gomerensis Assing, 1999 (Micropeplus), spec. n.stefaniae Assing, 1999 (Oligota), spec. n.The results of a field trip to La Gomera are presented. More than 45 species of Staphylinidae were recorded, at least 31 of them either Canarian endemics or island endemics of La Gomera. Four species, all of them presumably island endemics, are described and distinguished from related taxa: Micropeplus gomerensis sp. n., Leptobium gomerense sp. n., Oligota stefaniae sp. n., and Alevonota sollemnis sp. n. Their sexual characters and further distinguishing characters are figured.KeywordsColeoptera, Staphylinidae, Micropeplus, Leptobium, Oligota, Alevonota, Palaearctic, Canary Islands, La Gomera, taxonomy, new species, endemism.Nomenclatural Actssollemnis Assing, 1999 (Alevonota), spec. n.gomerense Assing, 1999 (Leptobium), spec. n.gomerensis Assing, 1999 (Micropeplus), spec. n.stefaniae Assing, 1999 (Oligota), spec. n
