Introduction

Amarotypines are a small tribe of ground beetles (Carabidae), recognised as a distinct tribe since 1985.[1] The best known species is Amarotypus edwardsii of New Zealand, widely distributed throughout the three main islands, and arboreal in habits.[2]

Biodiversity and distribution

Classification and phylogeny

Previously considered to be migadopines (before 1985), amarotypines are still often treated as forming a monophyletic subfamily Migadopinae with Migadopini,[5] but the phylogeny may be (Amarotypini, (Migadopini, Elaphrini)).[6] Alternatively, Amarotypini may form a clade with Promecognathini, again unrelated to Migadopini,[7] though this possible relationship has been disputed.[8]
