Bledius minor minor MULSANT & REY, 1878

Material examined: Greece: Corfu: 7 exs. [det. Schülke & Feldmann), N Roda, Astrakeri beach, 39°47'N, 19°45'E, 1–15.VII.2008, leg. Feldmann (cFel, MNB).

According to SCHÜLKE & SMETANA (2015), B. minor is represented in the Mediterranean region by two subspecies, B. minor minor (previously recorded from Albania, Croatia, France, and Italy) and B. minor doderoi BONDROIT, 1912 (known from Italy and Greece). Thus, the above specimens would represent the first records of B. minor minor from Greece. The general distribution pattern of the two subspecies, however, appears rather implausible.
