Kirejsthuk, A. G.: On the fauna of Nitidulidae (Insecta, Coleoptera) from Taiwan with some taxonomical notes
Carpophilus (Carpophilus) indiens HlSAMATSU, 1963 Specimen examined - "Formosa, Sauter", "Fuhosho, 1909.IV" (1, HNHM) (named by O. SJÖBERG as C. hemipterus). Distribution - Recorded from Pakistan, India, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Réunion (JELÍNEK 1986, KlREJTSHUK, unpublished). It can be transported with stored products of plant origin (mostly decaying and dried fruits). Carpophilus (Carpophilus) marginellus MOTSCHULSKY, 1858 Specimens examined - "Nantou county, Mong Gwu, 14 km E of Puli, 24°1.367' N, 121 Ü 5.036'E", "650 m, swept from vegetation, 20.IV.2002, D.A. Anstine, Gy. Fábián & O. Merkl" (2, HNHM); "Taipei Hsien, Haeng-Lu Dyi. 450 m, hilltop, swept, 13.IV.2003, L. Papp" ( 1, HNHM). Distribution - GROUVELLE (1914: 38) recorded this species from "Hokuto". It has a Pantropical range, however, now it is also widely spreading by man with stored products of plant origin (mostly decaying and dried fruits) (KlREJTSHUK 1992, unpublished). Carpophilus (Carpophilus) obsoletus ERICHSON, 1843 Specimens examined - "Formosa, Sauter", "Fuhosho, 1909.IV" (1, HNHM) (named by O. SJÖBERG); "S. Formosa, Auping, V.09, Sauter S.V." (1, ZMB). Distribution - GROUVELLE (1914: 38) recorded this species from "Sokutsu, dist. Bashoryo". As the previous species, it has a Pantropical range, however, now it is also widely spreading by man with stored products of plant origin (mostly decaying and dried fruits) (KlREJTSHUK 1992, unpublished). Carpophilus (Ecnomorphus) acutangulus REITTER, 1884 Distribution - HlSAMATSU (1985: 179) recorded this species from Taiwan. This species also spreads in Khabarovsky and Primorsky Krays, Sakhalin, Kuriles, Japan, both Koreas (KlREJTSHUK, unpublished) and, therefore is also a possible member of the Taiwanese fauna (see also taxonomical notes on synonymy of this species). Carpophilus (Megacarpolus) funereus MURRAY, 1864, comb. n. Distribution - GROUVELLE (1914: 38) recorded this species from "Kosempo". The author has studied specimens also from India (Darjeeling, Tamil Nadu), Sri Lanka, Maynmar (Burma), Thailand, Malaysia (Perak, Penang, Sarawak), Indonesia (Sumatra, Kalimantan) (HlSAMATSU 1985, KlREJTSHUK, unpublished).
