Bryaxis fabaiformis is a species of beetle in the family Staphylinidae.[1]

This beetle was first described in 2023 by Yeon-Jae Choi, Sun-Jae Park, Seung-Gyu Lee, and Jong-Seok Park.[1][2] The species epithet, fabaiformis, combines the Latin words faba (“bean”) and -formis (“having the form of”), and refers to the shape of antennal pedicels in the male.

It is found on the Korean peninsula in Gangwon-do.[2]

The holotype and paratypes of this beetle were collected by sifting soil and leaf litter in a mixed forest.[2]
