Operclipygus

***Operclipygus*** er en slekt av stumpbiller.

## Utseende
Bittesmå til middelsstore (1,1-5,6 millimeter) stumpbiller, ganske variable i kroppsformen, glatte og blanke, gjerne rødbrunlige. Langs diene av pronotum og dekkvinger er det en del korte, kraftige børstehår. Hodet er forholdsvis lite, antennene korte med en én-leddet klubbe. Dekkvingene er uten punkstriper og dekker ikke de bakerste bakkroppsleddene.

## Levevis
Lite er kjent med sikkerhet, men noen av artene er knyttet til maur, de fleste lever trolig som rovdyr mellom råtnende vegetasjon.

## Utbredelse
Slekten er vidt utbredt i Mellom- og Sør-Amerika, noen få arter går nord til det sørligste Nord-Amerika.
