Pachynematus clitellatus (SERVILLE, 1823)

Dumfriesshire, White Coomb, 4 ♂♂, 19.vi.2010, leg. Liston.

Treated in the sense of Taeger & Blank (1998). Male specimens from Meall nan Tarmachan, White Coomb and Corrie Fee, leg. Heibo and Liston key to P. kirbyi (Dahlbom, 1835) in Benson (1958) and might well be considered to represent a different species. These were swept from marshy land dominated by Carex , whilst P. clitellatus s. str. is also found on dry areas and is attached perhaps only to various Poaceae .
