C o m m e n t: Geostiba maxiana is the most common species of Staphylinidae in the litter layer of phrygana and pine forest habitats of Karpathos at intermediate and higher elevations. As many as 444 specimens were collected, with the altitudes ranging from 250 to 1100 m. One of them is infested with Laboulbeniales. This wing-dimorphic species is widespread in the East Mediterranean and has primarily been recorded from islands. Nevertheless, it is absent from Crete and Rhodos, where other species of the subgenus Sipalotricha SCHEERPELTZ, 1931 are present.
