Abstract:
Abstract. Taxonomic knowledge of Clivinini Rafinesque, 1815 in subterranean environments is limited. New genera records of this tribe in Brazilian caves are presented as well as a map with their geographical distribution. In total, nine genera were recorded in six Brazilian states, Piauí (Aspidoglossa Putzeys, 1846), Bahia (Aspidoglossa, Whiteheadiana Perrault, 1994, Oxydrepanus Putzeys, 1866, Schizogenius Putzeys, 1846), Goiás (Aspidoglossa, Paraclivina Kult, 1947, Semiclivina Kult, 1947 and Stratiotes Putzeys, 1846), Minas Gerais (Pyramoides Bousquet, 2002, Semiardistomis Kult, 1950, Semiclivina, Oxydrepanus), São Paulo (Semiardistomis) and Pará (Paraclivina, Oxydrepanus). This work is the first contribution to the understanding of the Clivinini taxa in Brazilian caves. Keywords: Ardistomina; Clivinina; Cave-dwelling species; Forcipatorina; Reicheiina.
