status

 

[ Thanatophilus ferrugatus ( Solsky, 1874) ]

Material examined. None.

Remarks. Species distributed in southern European parts of Russia, Iran and Central Asia (Růžička 2015). Özdemir & Sert (2008) reported this species from Turkey: Ankara. However, after comparison of their illustrations of the aedeagus with Schawaller (1981) and voucher specimens of T. ferrugatus and T. terminatus ( Hummel, 1825) deposited in the collection of Jan Růžička, we conclude that Özdemir & Sert (2008) misidentified their material, which in fact belongs to T. terminatus . The same probably apply to a record of Altunsoy et al. (2017) from Eskişehir Province. Therefore, T. ferrugatus is deleted from the Turkish fauna.
