There are about 1700 valid species of Atheta worldwide, placed in nearly 90 subgenera, but some of these subgenera are considered separate genera by some authors while other athetine genera (e.g., Acrotona and Philhygra) are sometimes treated as subgenera of Atheta, so these numbers and the generic/subgeneric concepts are variable. Currently 10 species have been reported from New Zealand, five of them adventive.
