| - The species of the Holarctic genus Ochthephilus are strictly hygrophilous and live in sandy or gravelly banks of streams, mostly under or between nearby stones, frequently also in moss on wet rocks. After the revision, 62 valid species are recognized, 25 of them new to science: O ashei sp. nov. (USA: North Carolina), O assingi sp. nov. (China: Shaanxi), O californicus sp. nov. (USA: California), O davidi sp. nov. (China: Sichuan), O enigmaticus sp. nov. (China: Shaanxi), O gusarovi sp. nov. (China: Sichuan), O hammondi sp. nov. (USA: Arizona), O incognitus sp. nov. (USA: Arkansas), O indicus sp. nov. (India: Himachal Pradesh), O itoi sp. nov. (Japan: Nara pref.), O kirschenblatti sp. nov. (China: Xinjiang), O kleebergi sp. nov. (Nepal: Central Region), O loebli sp. nov. (Japan: Tochigi pref.), O merkli sp. nov. (China: Sichuan), O qingyianus sp. nov. (Nepal: Western Region), O ritae sp. nov. (India: Uftarakhand), O schuelkei sp. nov. (Kyrgyzstan), O szarukani sp. nov. (China: Sichuan), O szeli sp. nov. (Azerbaijan), O tibetanus sp. nov. (China: Tibet), O tichomirovae sp. nov. (India: Uftarakhand), O uhligi sp. nov. (China: Hubei), O wrasei sp. nov. (China: Yunnan), O wunderlei sp. nov. (Cyprus), O zerchei sp. nov. (Nepal: Western Region). The following new synonyms are proposed: O forticornis (Hochhuth, 1860) = A. antennatus Watanabe & Shibata, 1961, syn. nov., = A. confinis Smetana, 1968, syn. nov., O lenkoranus (Scheerpeltz, 1950) = A. swaneticus Yablokov-Khnzorian, 1974, syn. nov., O planus (LeConte, 1861) = A. curtipennis Eppelsheim, 1893, syn. nov., O praepositus Mulsant & Rey, 1878 = A. ruteri Jarrige, 1949, syn. nov., O rosenhaueri (Kiesenwetter, 1850) = A. jailensis Scheerpeltz, 1950, syn. nov., = A. corsicus Fagel, 1956, syn. nov., O sericinus (Solsky, 1874) = Psilotrichus elegans Luze, 1904, syn. nov., = Ancyrophorus kerzhneri Kashcheev, 1989, syn. nov., = A. gvosdevi Kashcheev, 1999, syn. nov., O venustulus (Rosenhauer, 1856) = A. mediterraneus Scheerpeltz, 1950, syn. nov., O vulgaris (Watanabe & Shibata, 1961) = O masatakai Watanabe, 2007, syn. nov., lectotypes are designated for the following 27 nominal species: Trogophloeus angustatus Erichson, 1840, Ancyrophorus longipennis var. angustior Bernhauer, 1943, Ancyrophorus aureus Fauvel, 1871, Ancyrophorus aurorans Peyerimhoff, 1914, Ancyrophorus basicornis Cameron, 1941, Phloeonaeus biimpressus Maklin, 1852, Ancyrophorus carnicus Scheerpeltz, 1950, Ancyrophorus championi Bernhauer, 1926, Ancyrophorus curtipennis Eppelsheim, 1893, Ancyrophorus emarginatus Fauvel, 1871, Trogophloeus flexuosus Mulsant & Rey, 1856, Ancyrophorus forticornis Hochhuth, 1860, Ancyrophorus jailensis Scheerpeltz, 1950, Ancyrophorus kashmiricus Cameron, 1941, Ancyrophorus lenkoranus Scheerpeltz, 1950, Trogophloeus longipennis Fairmaire & Laboulbene, 1856, Ancyrophorus mediterraneus Scheemeltz, 1950, Ancyrophorus monticola Cameron, 1924, Ancyrophorus nigerrimus Cameron, 1941, Ancyrophorus nitidus Cameron, 1924, Ochthephilus oblitus Mulsant & Rey, 1878, Trogophloeus omalinus Erichson, 1840, Ancyrophorus planus LeConte, 1861, Ochthephilus praepositus Mulsant & Rey, 1878, Ancyrophorus proximus Cameron, 1941, Trogophloeus rosenhaueri Kiesenwetter, 1850, Ancyrophorus strandi Scheerpeltz, 1950. All the species are described or redescribed and attributed to species groups; important distinguishing characters, including the sexual characters of both sexes, are illustrated. A key to species is provided. The available data on the distribution and the bionomics of the species are compiled. All exact locality data are complemented with their geographical coordinates.
