Abstract: A checklist of Bethylidae of the Czech Republic and Slovakia is presented:
37 species are known from the Czech Republic (27 from Bohemia, 26 from
Moravia), and 29 from Slovakia. Four species are new for the Czech
Republic – Bethylus nitidus (C. G. Thomson, 1862) (from Bohemia and Moravia),
Parascleroderma nigriceps Kieffer, 1904 (from Moravia), Rhabdepyris fuscipes
Kieffer, 1906 (from Bohemia and Moravia), and R. pallidinervis Kieffer, 1906
(from Moravia). Epyris bayeri Hoffer, 1935 is new for Bohemia, Parasclero-
derma rugosulum Kieffer, 1906, and Laelius anthrenivorus Trani, 1909 are new
for Moravia. Codorcas cursor (Kieffer, 1906), Heterocoelia halidayella (West-
wood, 1874), Rhabdepyris fuscipes, and R. pallidinervis are new for Slovakia.
The following species were conditionally removed from the fauna of the studied
territories until their occurrence is confirmed: Glenosema nigra Kieffer,
1906 from the Czech Republic and Slovakia; Cephalonomia stephanoderis Betrem,
1961, Plastanoxus incompletus Evans, 1965, and Bethylus pilosus Kieffer,
1904 from the Czech Republic; Sclerodermus domesticus Klug, 1809 and Bethylus
coniceps (Kieffer, 1904) from Bohemia. The following supposed new synonymy is
established: Sclerodermus domesticus Klug, 1809 = S. fonscolombei (Westwood,
1881), syn. nov.
