Leptobium nigricolle ruficolle (WOLLASTON, 1862)

Material examined: Canary Islands: 6 exs., Fuerteventura, La Oliva env., 350 m, I.1987, leg. Heinz (MNB).

Comment: The distribution of this subspecies is confined to Fuerteventura and the small island Los Lobos, Canary Islands (ASSING 1999, 2005). Note that in SCHÜLKE & SMETANA (2015), L. nigricolle ruficolle is still listed as a distinct species, although its subspecific status had been proposed by ASSING (2005).
