03965F2CFF91FF94FF26FC14EB12FA2A.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Originally described from Madagascar, this is the only macropterous Pseudolathra known from Réunion so far. Male sternite VII (Fig. 4) is normally pubescent, lacking modified setae, similar to P. hamoni but with sparser pubescence particularly in the middle of posterior margin. The excision of the posterior margin of male sternite VIII (Fig. 20) is relatively deeper than in P. hamoni. The aedeagus (Figs 1 – 3) is characterised by two long processes attached to an asymmetrical apical portion of the ventral process of the aedeagus, a unique feature among Madagascan Pseudolathra. Habitus photos of this species were published by Janák (2014).	en	Kocian, Matúš, Hlaváč, Peter (2018): Review of the genus Pseudolathra Casey, 1905 (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Paederinae) of Réunion Island.

03965F2CFF91FF94FF26FDA9E8BEFCA1.taxon	discussion	Remarks. The cavernicolous species is endemic to Réunion, recorded only from Caverne Bateau and known from several specimens. The illustrations of the habitus of the adult, the aedeagus and the larva were published by Lecoq (1986, 2012). The material of this species was not available for this study.	en	Kocian, Matúš, Hlaváč, Peter (2018): Review of the genus Pseudolathra Casey, 1905 (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Paederinae) of Réunion Island.

03965F2CFF91FF96FF26F99DE8BEF828.taxon	discussion	Remarks. This is a species endemic to Reunion, with strongly reduced wings. It is very similar to P. gomyi and P. janaki sp. n. but differs from both by having a narrower head, posterior angles more rounded, and antennae and legs paler. The posterior margin of male sternite VII (Fig. 8) is more concave in the middle, evenly pubescent, lacking short, dark modified setae. The posterior margin of male sternite VIII (Fig. 19) is deeply excised as in P. gomyi and P. janaki sp. n., but the excision is shorter and wider. In ventral view, the ventral process of the aedeagus (Figs 5 – 7) is apically much wider in ventral view and the apex is formed by two short asymmetrical semimembranous processes. The ear-like lateral processes of the dorsal plate of the aedeagus do not extend beyond the overall lateral profile of the aedeagus when viewed ventrally or dorsally.	en	Kocian, Matúš, Hlaváč, Peter (2018): Review of the genus Pseudolathra Casey, 1905 (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Paederinae) of Réunion Island.

03965F2CFF94FF91FF26FF3EE8BFFCE9.taxon	discussion	Remarks. This is an endemic species to Réunion, with strongly reduced wings. It is very similar to P. janaki sp. n. and differs from late only in male terminalia. In contrast to P. janaki sp. n., male sternite VII (Fig. 12) is with less numerous short dark modified setae along the posterior margin. Male sternite VIII (Fig. 18) is similar to that of P. janaki sp. n. The ventral process of aedeagus (Figs 9 – 11) is broader in its basal part, as wide as the dorsal plate, and the apex is distinctly asymmetrical. The ventral process of the aedeagus in its basal portion is more protuberant in lateral view. The ear-like lateral processes of the dorsal plate of the aedeagus clearly extend beyond the overall lateral profile of the aedeagus when viewed ventrally or dorsally. The material determined as P. gomyi and published by Janák (2014) is in fact P. janaki sp. n.	en	Kocian, Matúš, Hlaváč, Peter (2018): Review of the genus Pseudolathra Casey, 1905 (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Paederinae) of Réunion Island.

P. janaki sp. n. is closely related to P. gomyi and differs only by the shape of the aedeagus and male secondary sexual characters (see Remarks for P. gomyi and the key to species). All specimens were collected in the central part of Réunion, Forêt de Bébour, by sifting forest litter in indigenous montane forest (Fig. 22).	en	Kocian, Matúš, Hlaváč, Peter (2018): Review of the genus Pseudolathra Casey, 1905 (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Paederinae) of Réunion Island.
