Glotov S.V. A review of the genus Amischa Thomson, 1858 (COLEOPTERA, STAPHYLINIDAE: ALEOCHARINAE) of Ukraine // Proc. of the State Nat. Hist. Mus. - Lviv, 2022. - 38. - P. 183-188 DOI: https://doi.org/10.36885/nzdpm.2021.38.183-188 Key words: rove beetles, subfamily Aleocharinae, genus Amischa, fauna, Ukraine The work summarizes information about the finds of species of the genus Amischa based on the study of collections stored on the territory of the country, collected in different administrative regions of Ukraine and the Autonomous Republic of Crimea. As a result of the research, it was established that the genus Amischa is represented in Ukraine by four species (A. analis, A. bifoveolata, A. decipiens, A. nigrofusca). Data on ecological features and distribution of the identified species are presented. The obtained results can be used to solve a number of theoretical issues of fauna, zoogeography and ecology, as well as in the preparation of the fauna cadastre of Ukraine, for comparative faunal studies, analysis of the distribution of species, biogeographic structures, study of faunogenesis, ecological monitoring and forecasting of the consequences of human activity on the natural ecosystems of the region.
