Kirejsthuk, A. G.: On the fauna of Nitidulidae (Insecta, Coleoptera) from Taiwan with some taxonomical notes

Cyllodes tigrinus GROUVELLE, 1914 Distribution - GROUVELLE (1914: 44) recorded this species from "Kosempo". No more data of this species has been available since this publication. Cyllodes sp. Specimens examined - "Nantou county, Kao-Leng Dyi, 18 km W of Wushe, 24°4.605'N, 121°7.583'E, 2074 m", "from tree trunk at night, 18-19.IV.2002, D. A. Anstine, Gy. Fabian & O. Merkl" (1 male, HNHM). Remarks - The specimen examined belongs to one species from the limbatus group, which has to be revised. Coxollodes cyrtusoides (REITTER, 1884), comb. n. Specimen examined - "Formosa, Sauter", "Pilam, 908.11" (1, HNHM). Distribution - HlSAMATSU (1985: 192) recorded this species from Taiwan. It is also known from Japan, eastern part of North China, Nepal, mountains of India, Vietnam (KlREJTSHUK 1992, un­published). Remarks - The species group assigned to the taxon Coxollodes KlREJTSHUK, 1987 is rather distinct from the other species of Pallodes ERICHSON, 1843 and it seems reasonable to regard it as isolated from the members of tribe the Strongylini at generic rather than subgeneric level, as was initially proposed. Neopallodes vicinus GROUVELLE, 1892 Distribution-This species is known from Primorsky Kray, Japan, continental China, Taiwan, Myanmar (Burma) (GROUVELLE 1892, HlSAMATSU 1983, 1985, KlREJTSHUK 1992, 1994). Tricanus nigripennis REITTER, 1873 Tricanus punctatissimus GROUVELLE, 1892, syn. n. Tricanus sauteri GROUVELLE, 1914, syn. n. Specimens examined - "Kankau (Koshun), Formosa, H.Sauter, VII. 1912", "Tricanus sauteri" (written by GROUVELLE) (lectotype of T. sauteri, male, DEI, here designated and 5 paralectotypes", DEI, ZISP); "Hoozan, Formosa, Sauter" (1, NMW).
