For some other species, see List of British rove beetles.

The rove beetles are a large family, having almost 2,900 species in North America.

Also, it is more likely that rove beetles and other non-flying insects will be found here instead of directly on the body.

Rove beetles of the genus Stenus are very interesting insects.

Rove beetles (family Staphylinidae) have short front wings that do not cover their abdomen.

The only two British beetle species that he described which remain valid are the rove beetles:

Insects recorded include ants and bees, as well as rove beetles (family Staphylinidae).

Staphylinus is a genus of rove beetles.

Staphylininae are a subfamily of rove beetles (family Staphylinidae).

Staphyliniformia - includes rove beetles and water scavenger beetles.

Rove beetles eat other insects.

Like other rove beetles, T. pictus has shortened elytra, so that most of its abdomen is exposed.

Although most adult rove beetles avoid daylight, Paederus species are active during the day and attracted to bright lights after nightfall.

Stenus is a genus of semiaquatic rove beetles in the subfamily Steninae.

(This is in contrast to Paederus dermatitis, where symptoms first appear 12-36 hours after contact with rove beetles.)

The abdomen may be very long and flexible, and some types of rove beetles superficially resemble earwigs.

The larvae of many beetle families are predatory like the adults (ground beetles, ladybirds, rove beetles).

Like other beetles (Coleoptera), rove beetles have hardened forewings that cover the flight wings.

The Staphylinidae (rove beetles) of Britain and Ireland.

Although a few are known to be parasitic, most rove beetles and their larvae prey upon mites, other insects, and small worms.

Hairy rove beetles are considered forensically important, however; their use is somewhat limited due to their transient nature and widespread distribution.

Staphylinoidea, including antlike stone beetles, carrion beetles, and rove beetles.

Rove beetles of the genus Aleochara are among the only insect parasites in the beetle family Staphylinidae.
