Asaphidion curtum ssp. curtum HEYDEN 1870

T u n i s i a: Béja: Béja, 3.V.2005, Vl. Skoupý leg. (13, cWR, identification confirmed by Hartmann). Jendouba: Jendouba, 7.IV.2008, J. Louda leg. (13, cWR).

A species with a range from the W-Mediterranean area to C- and southern N-Europe and W-Balkan, from N-Africa only mentioned from Morocco and Algeria (CATPAL 1: HARTMANN 2003: 242). First record for Tunisia. A thorough investigation must reveal if the status of A. c. ssp. maroccanum ANTOINE 1956 ( Morocco) and A. c. ssp. delatorrei UYTTENBOOGAART 1928 (Gran Canaria) is justified.
