Apimela sabulicola ( BERNHAUER, 1914)

Aleuonota ( Apimela) sabulicola BERNHAUER, 1914: 5 .

Meotica quadraticollis SCHEERPELTZ, 1954a: 155 ; nov.syn.

T y p e m a t e r i a l: Lectotype ♀, present designation: "♂ / Rotentm. Pass, Translv. Breit / ex coll. Breit / ex coll. Scheerpeltz / Typus Meotica quadraticollis O. Scheerpeltz / Apimela, J. Muona det. / Lectotypus ♀ Meotica quadraticollis Scheerpeltz, V. Gusarov des. 1996 / Apimela sabulicola Bh. V.I. Gusarov det. 1996" ( NHMW).

C o m m e n t: The original description of Meotica quadraticollis is based on an unspecified number of syntypes from "den transsylvanischen Alpen (Rotenturmpass)" ( SCHEERPELTZ 1954a). Only one syntype was located in the Scheerpeltz collection. The specimen was examined, labelled as the lectotype, and identified as Apimela sabulicola by Vladimir Gusarov ( Oslo). With his consent, the lectotype designation is here published.
