摘要
The first known fossil species of Trypanaeus Eschscholtz (Histeridae: Trypanaemae), Trypanaeus hispaniolus, new species, is described and figured from the remains of two females preserved in Early Miocene (Burdigalian) Dominican amber. The fossil history of Histeridae along with the higher-level classification of the subfamily Trypanaemae is briefly discussed. An addition to the existing key to species of the genus is provided in order to accommodate the new fossil species described herein.
