(*) 216° contribution to the knowledge of the Staphylinidae
Bruxneria lamingtoniana n. gen. n. sp. (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae) from Queensland and New South Wales are described and figured. The new genus is similar to Gyrohypnus Leach, 1819 and Neohypnus Coiffait and Saiz, 1964, but differs by some external characters. Its distinctly dilated anterior tarsi appear to put it next to Notolinus Casey, 1906. Some new records are listed.
