49738F2FFFDDFFDE071EF992FEEBFE6C.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Pace (1999) described B. rougemonti based only on a single female specimen from China. Nevertheless, B. mandibularis can be distinguished from B. rougemonti by the larger and different shape of the spermatheca (Fig. 4 E). The new species has a less distinctly V-shaped umbilicus, shorter bursa, and narrowed anterior part of duct of the spermatheca compared to B. rougemonti. We found intraspecific variation in body coloration (dark brownish to black) and head shape (some have a more circular shape) among individuals of the new species. However, all specimens examined showed the same form and structure of the median lobe of the male genitalia, which has been regarded a good character to delimit and identify species within Oxypodini.	en	Lee, Woo-Chul, Ahn, Kee-Jeong (2023): Description of a New Species of Beijingusa Pace (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Aleocharinae) in Korea.
