Leptotyphlus er en slekt av biller som hører til familien kortvinger (Staphylinidae). Denne gruppen er representert med tallrike arter i Mellom- og Sør-Europa, men finnes ikke nord for Østerrike.
Utseende Bittesmå (0,8-2,1 millimeter), slanke, blekt fargede (gjerne rødlige) kortvinger. Disse billene bærer preg av sitt underjordiske levesett. Øyne og flygevinger mangler helt. Kroppen er lang og tynn, jevbred, hodet forholdsvis stort med korte antenner. Pronotum og dekkvinger er ganske små, bakkroppen lang og smal. Beina er korte.
Levevis Disse billene lever dypt nede i jorda og kommer sjelden til overflaten. De fleste av de kjente artene lever i områder med middelhavsklima. Det har blitt spekulert i at årsaken til at gruppen mangler i Nord-Europa er at de ennå ikke har vandret inn etter siste istid, da disse billene trolig har ganske dårlig spredningsevne.
Utbredelse Slekten har mange arter i det sørlige Europa.
