Diagnosis. Dima pecoudi is a large species (body length: 13.0– 15.7 mm), with typical very short, thin and decumbent body pubescence, clinging to the pronotal sides ( Fig. 150 View FIGURES 143 – 154 ), very dense pronotal punctation with matt intervals, and elytra matt, with small, dense, fine punctures, with intervals microreticulated ( Figs 85–88 View FIGURES 75 – 89 , 171 View FIGURES 163 – 171 ). Male genitalia is as in Figs 206–207 View FIGURES 202 – 211 . Dima pelikani sp. nov. shares with D. pecoudi the similar surface of elytra but differs in the semi-erect pubescence on the sides of pronotum ( Fig. 151 View FIGURES 143 – 154 ).

Distribution. Greece (Ossa Mts., Olympus Mts., Mavrovouni Mts.; Fig. 244 View FIGURE 244 ).

Remark. Two female specimens in the collection of G. Platia ( PCPG) bear labels " Greece, Col de Katara , 15.V.2000, G. Dubault leg.". The occurrence of this species near Katara Pass is very improbable and we suppose that these specimens were mislabelled.
