2022-05-16 eng The data we present consists in a long-term inventory of Staphylinidae (Insecta, Coleoptera) collected from several standardized sampling campaigns and non-standardized observations, performed between 1990 and 2015 in several habitat types of eight islands of the Azores archipelago. The sampled habitats included exotic, mixed and native forests, intensive and semi-natural pasturelands, orchards, caves and lava flows. Most of records (about 96.7%) were collected from standardized sampling campaigns, which included pitfall traps and beating transect protocols. Non-standardized records were registered from human observations from researchers, cave surveys, color traps and malaise traps. This inventory compiles all records and knowledge about Staphylinidae in Azores, and is part of a series of publications of distribution and abundance of Azorean arthropods Samplingevent; Arthropods Azorean native forest Biodiversity Dataset Inventory Linnean Wallacean and Prestonian shortfalls Long term monitoring GBIF Dataset Type Vocabulary: http://rs.gbif.org/vocabulary/gbif/dataset_type_2015-07-10.xml This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution (CC-BY) 4.0 License.

Collected samples were sorted by parataxonomist and posteriorly identified by an expert taxonomist in laboratory The study was conducted in several habitats of eight islands of Azores archipelago: Flores, S. Jorge, Pico, Faial, Terceira, Graciosa, S. Miguel and Sta. Maria islands. The sampled habitats include exotic, mixed, and native forests, intensive and semi-natural pastures, orchards, caves, and lava flows. This inventory of Staphylinidae (Coleoptera) includes records obtained in several standardized sampling campaigns and by non-standardized methods performed between 1990 and 2015. Most of the records (96.7%) are based on standardized sampling campaigns, which included pitfall and beating protocols. The used methodology is in accordance with Borges et al. (2016) and BALA (Biodiversity of Arthropods the Laurissilva of Azores) I and II projects. Non-standardized records are based on hand-collecting and sifting, as well as cave, color and malaise traps. Standardized sampling campaigns included pitfall traps and beating transects. Pitfall trap transect protocols were conducted with 33 cl plastic cups, partially filled with propylene glycol, in the soil (cup rim at surface level) every 5 m. Traps were protected from rain using a plastic plate, placed about 5 cm above surface level and fixed to the ground with wire. The pitfall traps remained active in the field for 14 days. Beating transects were performed by beating the canopy of woody vegetation, using a beating tray. The protocol was conducted when the vegetation was dry. A 5 m wide square was established every 15 m (total of 10 squares per transect). Two woody plant specimens of the most abundant species (up to three species when available) were sampled in each square. For each selected plant, a branch was chosen at random and a beating tray placed beneath. The tray consisted of a 1 m wide and 60 cm deep cloth inverted pyramid, with a plastic bag at the vertex. Five beatings were made using a stick for each plant individual sampled. All sorted specimens were identified by a taxonomical expert Inventory of the Azorean rove-beetles (Insecta, Coleoptera, Staphylinidae) Paulo A. V.

Non-standardized records were registered from human observations from researchers, cave surveys, color traps and malaise traps. This inventory compiles all records and knowledge about Staphylinidae in Azores, and is part of a series of publications of distribution and abundance of Azorean arthropods Species collecting was funded mostly by four projects: Azorean Direcção Regional dos Recursos Florestais (Azorean Government /project 17.01-080203), FCT- project PTDC/BIA-BEC/100182/2008 – “Predicting extinctions on islands: a multi-scale assessment”, DRCT project M112/F/014/2007 and FCT-NETBIOME –ISLANDBIODIV grant 0003/2011. The database management was funded by by FEDER in 85% and by Azorean Public funds by 15% through Operational Program Azores 2020, under the project AZORESBIOPORTAL –PORBIOTA (ACORES-01-0145-FEDER-000072). The Azores archipelago extends for 615 km and is located in the North Atlantic Ocean (37-40°N, 25-31°W), about 1600 km from Europe and 2200 km from the North America. The archipelago is formed by nine main islands and some small islets, all of them of volcanic origin. The islands are divided into three main groups: the western group (Corvo and Flores), the central group (Faial, Pico, Graciosa, São Jorge and Terceira), and the eastern group (São Miguel and Santa Maria). The climate is temperate oceanic, with regular and abundant rainfall, high levels of relative humidity, above 95% on average on native forests, and persistent winds, mainly during the winter and autumn seasons. Since Portuguese colonization in the 15th century, the landscape of the Azores was dramatically altered by replacing native forests with forest tree plantations, crops, pastures, and urban areas. Currently the native laurel forest comprises about 5% of the total surface of the archipelago and has remained only at higher elevations and in inaccessible areas of the islands. This inventory of Staphylinidae includes records of several standardized sampling campaigns and non-standardized observations, performed between 1990 and 2015 (Gaspar et al. 2008; Borges et al. 2016). Most of the records (about 96.7%) were collected in standardized sampling campaigns, which included pitfall and beating protocols. Non-standardized records are based on hand-collecting and sifting, as well as cave, color and malaise traps. Additional non-standard records are based on cave, color and malaise traps, and collecting trips conducted by Andreas Kleeberg in Pico and S. Miguel in 2015 and by Volker Assing in Terceira, S. Miguel and S. Maria islands in 2013. Collected samples were sorted and subsequently identified by an expert taxonomist in laboratory
