Oxypoda (Baptopoda) transgressa PEYERIMHOFF 1908: 122 View in CoL .

Type material examined: Lectotype, present designation [dissected prior to present study]: " crête du Djurdjura / Oxypoda Jurjurae m. n. sp. / transgressa / Lectotypus Oxypoda transgressa Peyerimhoff , desig. V. Assing 2010" ( MNHNP) . Paralectotypes: 1: " crête du Djurdjura , 6.VII.1907 " ( MNHNP) ; 1: " crête du Djurdjura / Oxypoda transgressa / Muséum Paris, Ex Collection J. Jarrige 1976 / Oxypoda transgressa Peyer, M. Tronquet Det. 1999 " ( MNHNP) .

Comment: The original description is based on "une dizaine d'exemplaires" collected "auprès des neiges du Djurdjura" in July ( PEYERIMHOFF 1908). A holotype is not specified. Three syntypes were located in the Jarrige collection at the MNHNP. The male is designated as the lectotype. The primary sexual characters of the lectotype are illustrated in Figs 10-11 View Figs 10-19 .

This species is extremely similar to O. andalusiaca . The head is of less dark coloration and less strongly contrasting with the reddish pronotum. Also, the apex of the ventral process of the aedeagus is somewhat shorter and less slender. However, more material is needed to clarify if these differences are an expression of inter- or intraspecific variation.
