6C07C604FFF62F7B30B2F259FBB48C37.taxon	discussion	Notes on Nematoscelis filipes Wollaston, 1867 (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae) In the original description, Wollaston (1867) noted the affinity of N. filipes with the genus Oligota Mannerheim, 1830 based on the ten-segmented antennae and four-segmented tarsi. He noted that N. filipes was different from Oligota due to it having a longer apical [maxillary?] palpomere, shorter ligula and longer legs, among other characters. Based on examination of photos of the type series housed at the Natural History Museum, London (Fig. 1), N. filipes does indeed have ten-segmented antennae and four-segmented tarsi. These characters support its placement in the tribe Hypocyphtini Laporte de Castelnau, 1835 (Ashe 2001; Orlov et al. 2021). All specimens of N. filipes were collected by Mr. Gray. In all cases, specimens were collected by “ beating the plants of an eatable Bean (the Lablabia vulgaris — known locally under the name of “ Feij „ o) in cultivated spots of intermediate altitudes ” (Wollaston 1867: 232). Such a method of collecting N. filipes certainly agrees with the biology of some other Hypocyphtini, which are active predators of mites on foliage. Whether N. filipes deserves its status as a monotypic genus or may in fact be congeneric with some other described genus of Hypocyphtini remains to be explored, but this issue has no impact on the homonymy.	en	Shaw, Josh Jenkins (2023): Hansarsia nom. nov., a replacement name for Nematoscelis G.
