Gymnochthebius seminole is a species of tiny beetle in the family Hydraenidae.[2] It is known only from a single adult male specimen collected in a "sawgrass-mangrove area" along the Snake Bight Trail north of Flamingo in Everglades National Park, Florida on 27 August 1965.[1][3] This specimen was 1.20 millimetres (0.047 in) long, with a relatively robust body.[1] It is most similar to G. oppositus.[1] The species is named for the Seminole people of Florida.[1]
