New data are given for the beetle family Histeridae, subfamily Hetaeriinae. Two collecting methods were fairly productive ; a flight interception trap and the flooding of whole antnests. A new cleaning technique was successfully tested for the preparation of genital structures ; these are prepared in a basic solution of Genitase proteolytic enzyme. The female genitalia of 12 species of Hetaeriinae are described for the first time. New descriptive, distributional and/or ecological data are provided for 35 species, based on type-specimens, when possible. The following taxa are described as new : Aristomorphus borgmeieri, A. latipes, A. ogloblini, A. perversus, Aristonister sericeus, Hemicolonides parvulus ; Latronister breyeri. The following new synonymy is proposed : Oudaimosister Helava in Helava et al. 1985 = Mesynodites Reichardt, 1924. Lectotype and where the case paralectotypes, are designated for the following species : Aristomorphus borgmeieri, Aristonister sericeus, Cheilister sphaeroides, Clientister henrici, Colonides quadriglumis, Cossyphodister schwarzmaieri, Ecclisister bickhardti, Euxenister caroli, Hemicolonides parvulus, Parasynodites suturacava, Pelatetister pretiosus, Teratosoma amphiphilus, Troglosternus dasypus. The genus Hetaeriarchus Reichensperger is considered as a nomen nudum. (Résumé d'auteur)
