Remarks. Tentyria rugosa floresii is well-differentiated from the previous subspecies, characterized by elytral striae made of very robust, foveolated punctures; these punctures, most of which are very deep, are either rounded or oblong, well separated from one another or fused in groups of two or three (in this case forming short longitudinal grooves); elytral intervals clearly convex; male copulatory organ indistinguishable from that of the other subspecies. Tentyria monticola was described on specimens from central Sardinia (Monte Spada and surroundings of Baunei) based upon very slight features that are absolutely inconsistent even within a same population, and should therefore be considered simply as a synonym.
Distribution and ecology. Subspecies widespread in central-southern Sardinia ( Fig. 19); besides the above localities referring to material personally examined by myself, the taxon is cited from the following Sardinian localities in the literature: “Reg. mont.: Sard. cent.” [= mountainous region, central Sardinia] ( Luigioni 1929, as Tentyria monticola Gené ). Nuoro prov.: Monte Spada ( Gené 1839, as T. monticola ); Gennargentu, Punta La Marmora; Monte San Giovanni ( Ardoin 1973, as T. ramburi ssp. floresi var. monticola ). Ogliastra prov.: dint. Baunei ( Gené 1839, as T. monticola ); Baunei ( Ardoin 1973, as T. ramburi ssp. floresi var. monticola ); Dorgali ( Ardoin 1973, as T. ramburi ssp. floresi var. monticola ; Aliquò et al. 2006). Oristano prov.: dint. Cabras ( Gené 1836b, as T. floresii ); Cabras ( Luigioni 1929, as T. floresi ). Sassari prov.: Alghero ( Luigioni 1929, as T. floresi ); Alghero, Capo Caccia ( Ardoin 1973, as T. ramburi ssp. floresi ). I consider the record from Corsica by Löbl et al. (2008) to be erroneous.
Tentyria rugosa floresii is found mainly on xeric and rocky terrains, from sea level up to 1,800m; it is most frequent in central-eastern limestone areas of the island and is more easily observed in spring and summer.
