Systolosoma breve, the short neaustral false ground beetle, is a species of beetle in the genus Systolosoma. They have been found in Argentina and Chile,[1][2] where they inhabit lowlands to midlands in Valdivian rainforests with Nothofagus dombeyi and Araucaria araucana, as well as Coigue Maniu Forest and Nire/Steppe.
They can be found on sandy alluvium and open sandy areas, as well as amongst forest leaf and wood litter. Adults have been observed taking cover in leaf litter.[3]
