Helops caeruleus caeruleus (Linnaeus, 1758)

Material examined. 1 ♁ ( VTCB): ‘ Cyprus, Perivolie [Pervolia] / 15.07.2000, leg. Josef Dvořák’.

Comments. Central and southern Europe from Great Britain to Bulgaria. This specimen was found in an entirely anthropogenic landscape (Pervolia village) and very far from the easternmost known populations in Bulgaria. We suppose that this is a case of anthropogenic introduction and the specimen (egg or larva) was probably introduced together with soil mixed with wood rot or with plants for landscaping. New record for Cyprus.
