Quedius (Raphirus) kirklarensis KORGE, 1971

Quedius (Sauridus) kirklarensis KORGE, 1971a: 52 f.

Quedius (Sauridus) View in CoL drannazensis COIFFAIT, 1978b: 171.

T y p e m a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d: Holotype ♂ [dissected prior to present study; median lobe of aedeagus broken]: " Anatolia bor., leg. H. Korge / 2000 m, 23.V.1964, Çamlik s. Rize / ♂ - Holotypus Quedius kirklarensis Korge / Quedius kirklarensis Korge, A. Solodovnikov det. 2000" ( MNB).

C o m m e n t: The original description of Q. kirklarensis is based on a unique male holotype from "Kirklar-Dağlari oberhalb des Dorfes Çamlik" ( KORGE 1971b), that of Q. drannazensis on a unique male from "Drannaz Dag" ( COIFFAIT 1978b). Quedius kirklarensis was revised by SOLODOVNIKOV & ŠTOURAČ (2002), who also established the synonymy with Q. drannazensis. The species is distinguished from all other Raphirus species with an impunctate scutellum by its small size (approximately 6.0 mm) in combination with completely reduced hind wings and the absence of a palisade fringe at the posterior margin of the abdominal tergite VII. The aedeagus is similar to that of Q. limbatus .
