Hart, Charles J. & Ivie, Michael A., 2016, A Revision of the Genus Diastolinus Mulsant and Rey (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae), The Coleopterists Bulletin 70 (3), pp. 485-540 : 485-540

Diastolinus puncticollis Marcuzzi, 1977 (not Mulsant and Rey, 1859)

Diastolinus puncticollis (not Mulsant and Rey, 1859); Marcuzzi 1977: 22 (in part, Puerto Rico records only); Peck 2011a: 33 (in part, Puerto Rico records only), 2016: 160 (in part, Puerto Rico records only); Peck et al. 2014: 84 (in part, Puerto Rico records only).

Discussion. This record is based on two specimens labeled “E of Guanica, station 704, 15. IX.1963 ”, collected by Wagenaar Hummelinck, and supposedly deposited in Naturalis, Leiden. Repeated requests to Naturalis have gone unanswered, so we have not seen these specimens, and the record is therefore placed incertae sedis.
