Gomyopsis
There is a single species in this myrmecophilous genus of Histeridae.
The pronotal trichomes (Fig. 12A–B) of Gomyopsis are unknown in the subfamily outside of Chlamydopsis. The sole species in this genus is similar in general body shape to Eucurtiopsis brendelli, from Sulawesi, with which it also shares a margined pronotum. It is not clear, however, if these features are indicative of a close relationships between the two.
