ABSTRACT. Histerid beetles represent a group that has historically received little attention from entomologists, especially in Brazil, which makes it difficult not only to understand biodiversity and its conservation, but also to develop research using these beetles in applied areas. Here we present an overview of the biodiversity of Histeridae in Brazil, focusing on the following information i) historical data and the current richness known for Brazil, including a list of species; ii) the main authors who described the Histeridae biodiversity recorded in the Brazilian territory, and in relevant entomological collections; iii) the literature to identify Histerids; iv) the known biological associations and collection methods; v) and the conservation of Brazilian species; in addition, to proposing goals for future studies. Most of the data presented comes from the Taxonomic Catalog of the Brazilian Fauna (TCBF), part Histeridae, a Brazilian initiative to generate knowledge about the faunal biodiversity present in the country. Our data indicate that to date six subfamilies, 16 tribes, 132 genera, 607 species and one subspecies are known in Brazil. We believe that the development of taxonomic tools that contribute to the knowledge of biodiversity, as well as the increase in taxonomic revisions, constitute the guiding principle to boost research in Histeridae.
