Distribution in Siberia. *Kemerovo Province, *Altaiskiy Territory, *Altai Republic, *Krasnoyarsk Territory.

General distribution. North Africa ( Morocco), all Europe to 64°N; in the Alps and Pyrenees to 1900 m altitude. Previously, the eastern edge of its range was thought to lie in Iran ( Dathe 1980). The new records show that the species is considerably more widely distributed.

Remarks. The taxonomic situation within the brevicornis group remains unsatisfactory and a revision including the Asian records is needed. Profound uncertainties exist even among the European taxa ( H. brevicornis , H. gredleri Förster , H. kahri Förster , H. intermedius Förster and H. imparilis Förster ), so that the examined specimens are tentatively assigned to H. brevicornis . Nevertheless, morphological characters make possible an assignment to H. brevicornis . By analogy, this applies equally to H. gredleri . In southern Siberia and in Europe, where these species are partly sympatric, these two taxa apparently form a species pair in which the putative species should be distinguished.
