Palaminus

***Palaminus*** er en artsrik slekt av biller som hører til familien kortvinger (Staphylinidae). De kan kjennes på lang og smal, mer eller mindre sylindrisk kroppsform og nokså kort bein. Disse billene lever på bakken der den smale kroppsformen hjelper dem å ta seg lett fram mellom løvstrø og røtter.

## Utseende
Små til middelsstore, slanke, blanke, gjerne lysbrunlige kortvinger. Kroppen har oppstående hår og er ganske blank.

## Levevis
Smalkortvingene er bakkelevende rovdyr som særlig finnes på litt fuktige steder.

## Utbredelse
Slekten er utbredt over det meste av Jorda, med flest arter i Afrika og den neotropiske økosonen.
