Ektatotricha is an extinct, monotypic, genus of ant-like stone beetle in the family Staphylinidae containing the single species Ektatotricha paradoxa.
The genus is known from a total of 15 specimens in amber from amber deposits near Tanai Village northwest of Myitkyina in the Kachin region of Myanmar. Burmese amber has been radiometrically dated using U- Pb isotopes, yielding an age of approximately 99 million years old, close to the Aptian – Cenomanian boundary. The holotype, a single, complete adult with specimen number "AMNH Bu-1464", and six of the paratypes are now deposited in the American Museum of Natural History. Four more of the paratypes are deposited in the University of Kansas Natural History Museum collections in Lawrence, Kansas, USA. The remaining two paratype specimens are currently in a private collection, but are to be deposited in the Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago. In addition to the holotype and 12 paratypes, two other American Museum of Natural History specimens were examined as part of the study; however, they were not designated as type material.
