This study is aimed at solving the long-standing ambiguity about the phylogenetic placement of the Australian ground-beetle genus Tasmanitachoides. A recently published phylogeny of the supertribe Trechitae using morphological characters of larvae is re-examined in light of new discoveries. The results of the phylogenetic analysis of 65 informative characters for 36 taxa reject the previously maintained opinion of affinities between Tasmanitachoides and Tachyini. Instead it is hypothesised that…

Phylogeny of the beetle supertribe Trechitae (Coleoptera: Carabidae): Unexpected clades, isolated lineages, and morphological convergence.
A preliminary phylogeny and review of the genus Tasmanitachoides, with descriptions of two new species (Coleoptera, Carabidae, Bembidarenini)
TLDR
The inferred phylogeny shows the kingi group to be sister to remaining Tasmanitachoides, with the wattsensis group and T. lutus (Darlington) also being phylogenetically isolated.
A molecular phylogeny shows the single origin of the Pyrenean subterranean Trechini ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae).
Phylogeny of minute carabid beetles and their relatives based upon DNA sequence data (Coleoptera, Carabidae, Trechitae)
TLDR
The phylogeny of ground beetles of supertribe Trechitae is inferred using DNA sequences of genes that code for 28S ribosomal RNA, 18S riboRNAs, and wingless, and against Erwin’s hypothesis of anillines as a polyphyletic lineage derived from the tachyine genus Paratachys, the anilline sampled are monophyletic, and not related to ParatACHys.
Trechini (Insecta: Coleoptera: Carabidae: Trechinae)
TLDR
The New Zealand fauna includes representatives of lineages that were previously regarded as the subtribes Aepina, Homaloderina, and Trechina and their survival during changing geological episodes is discussed.
A new Typhlocharis (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Anillina) from Spain: combining adult and larval morphological data with DNA information
TLDR
It was found that the larva of T. toletana is morphologically indistinguishable from that of Typhlocharis sp.

A new species of the tachyine genus Tasmanitachoides from the Kimberley Division, Western Australia (Coleoptera, Carabidae)
TLDR
The new species is most similar to T. obliquiceps from eastern Australia, but is distinguished by its smaller size, shorter and wider elytra, less distinct elytral striation, longer and more conspicuous pilosity on the upper surface, and finely punctate pronotum.
A peculiar new genus of the Bembidiine subtribe Tachyina from north Queensland, Australia (Insecta, Coleoptera, Carabidae, Bembidiini, Tachyina)
ABSTRACT A peculiar new tachyine genus and species is described from the lower Cape York Peninsula and South Wellesly Islands, North Queensland, Australia: Setitachys macrops, gen. & spec. nov. The…

Phylogenetic analysis of Trechitae (Coleoptera: Carabidae) based on larval morphology, with a description of first‐instar Phrypeus and a key to genera
TLDR
It is proposed that the tribe Trechini is a sister group to the supertribe Trechitae and its monophyly is supported with two unique synapomorphies, and its sister group relationships remain obscure.
Revision of the Australian ground-beetle genus Tasmanitachoides Erwin (Insecta : Coleoptera : Carabidae : Bembidiinae), with special regard to the tropical species
TLDR
It appears that the generalised groups of species are still living in south-eastern Australia, including Tasmania, whereas most species of the more derivative species group have spread over tropical northern Australia, and are still in a period of rapid evolution.
Larvae of Bembidiini (Coleoptera: Carabidae): Subtribes Tachyina and Xystosomina
TLDR
Based on at least six synapomorphic character states the subtribes Tachyina and Xystosomina appear to form a monophyletic group, and there are no synapomorphies to propose a sister-group relationship between TachyINA andXystOSomina within the supertribe Trechitae.
A Contribution to the Knowledge of the Biology of a Troglobiont Carabid Species, Jeannelius birsteini Ljovuschkin, 1963 (Coleoptera, Carabidae, Trechini)
TLDR
Data on the larval morphology substantiate the placement of Jeannelius birsteini to the Aphaenops group of the tribe Trechini, and the taxonomic position of this species in the tribeTrechini is discussed.
Tasmanitachoides Erwin glabellus n. sp. from North Queensland, Australia, with a note on Tasmanitachoides lutus (Darlington) (Insecta, Coleoptera, Carabidae, Bembidiinae)
TLDR
A new species of the genus Tasmanitachoides Erwin from North Queensland is described, characterized by its distinctly impressed clypeus, but it is distinguished from all related species by its glabrous body surface.
