Platerodrilus ruficollis Pic, 1942 comb. n. Fig. 39

Falsocalochromus ruficollis Pic, 1942

Duliticola hoiseni Wong, 1996: 175, syn. n.

Material examined.

Holotype, male, Presqu'ile Malaise (MNHP).

Remark.

Wong (1996) described and illustrated Duliticola hoiseni . During the recent search in the Paris Museum we found that Pic (1942) described the same species as Falsocalochromus ruficollis and placed in the relationships with Calochromus despite that fact that the species perfectly fits in his own concept of Platerodrilus . Therefore, we propose Duliticola hoiseni as a junior subjective synonym of Platerodrilus ruficollis .
