 Discussion: This may be the Staphylinus dichrous described in 1790 by 

 Gmelin (Systema naturae, ed. 13, vol. 1, pt. 4, p. 2035), which has not 

 been connected with any other species. Gravenhorst cited his name as 

 "Staph, dichrous — Mus. c. de Hoffmannsegg." Erichson listed one synonym 

 (leachii Curtis) under this species. Since only one species was included, 

 however, the genus is here considered monobasic.
