Aleuonota punctipennis EPPELSHEIM, 1893: 23 f.

Type material examined:

Holotype  [slightly damaged]: " / Ost-Sibirien , Quellgebiet des Irkut , Leder 1891 / punctipennis Eppelsh. / punctipennis Epp., Deutsch. ent. Zt. 1893, p. 23 / Collect. Eppelsh. / Typus / " Alevonota " punctipennis (Eppelsheim) det. V. Assing 2007 " ( NHMW).

Comments:

The original description is based on a single male from "Ost-Sibirien in der Nähe der Hauptstadt Irkutsk auf dem linken Ufer des Irkut in der oberen Hälfte dieses Flusses", this area extending from the "Ortschaft Tunka bis an den Muku-Sardik im Sajan'schen Gebirge" ( EPPELSHEIM 1893). An examination of the external morphology of the holotype and especially the sexual characters (completely different morphology of the median lobe of the aedeagus and the paramere) revealed that the species does not refer to Alevonota , but to a genus unknown to us.
