Abstract: This study summarises information on the distribution and ecology of weevils of the tribe Bagoini in the Czech Republic. Altogether, 24 species of the genera Bagous Germar, 1817 and Hydronomus Schönherr, 1825 are known from the Czech Republic, with another 11 species occurring in neighbouring countries with potential to also occur in the Czech Republic. Three species (Bagous binodulus (Herbst, 1795), B. brevis Gyllenhal, 1836 and B.majzlani (Kodada, Holecová et Behne, 1992)) probably disappeared from the entire country during the 20th century, and another eight species are known from five or fewer recent localities. Only B. tubulus is common in most of the country, and another four species (H. alismatis (Marsham, 1802), B. lutulentus (Gyllenhal, 1813), B. subcarinatus Gyllenhal, 1836 and B. tempestivus (Herbst, 1795) are locally common and recently known from more than 20 sites. Recently, several species became very rare, especially B. glabrirostris, B. lutosus, B. nodulosus, and B. puncticollis. All species except B. diglyptus Boheman, 1845 are bound to wetlands or water plants, several of them are very rare or endangered. Preservation of peaty meadows, marshes, ponds or water reservoirs with many water and littoral plants and regions with small pools with wetland plants is necessary for the conservation of these interesting weevils.

Libor DvořákPanorpa similis (Mecoptera: Panorpidae), a new species to the scorpionfly fauna of TurkeyKlapalekiana 53(3–4): 271-274

Abstract: The first records of the scorpionfly Panorpa similis Esben-Petersen, 1915 from Turkey are presented. The known distribution of two scorpionfly species, P. similis and P. connexa McLachlan, 1869 in northernmost Turkey is briefly discussed.

Michael GeiserRhagonycha bythinica (Coleoptera: Cantharidae) – New to EuropeKlapalekiana 53(3–4): 275-277

Abstract: The soldier beetle Rhagonycha bythinica Marseul, 1864, previously thought to be endemic to north-western Anatolia is newly recorded from Lesvos Island. This is the first record for Greece, and the species can therefore be added to the European fauna.

Jiří HájekPotápník Eretes sticticus (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae) dorazil do České republikyKlapalekiana 53(3–4): 279-282

Abstract: Eretes sticticus (Linnaeus, 1767) is recorded for the first time from the Czech Republic. A single male specimen was collected in 2016 at light in the wetland area "Trávní Dvůr near Hrabětice village in southern Moravia. It probably represents the northernmost record of Eretes Laporte, 1833 in Europe. The history of occurrence of Eretes species in the Czech Republic is briefly summarised.

Jana Christophoryová, Diana Jajcayová & Katarína KrajčovičováPseudoscorpions (Arachnida: Pseudoscorpiones) living in tree microhabitats in SlovakiaKlapalekiana 53(3–4): 283-298

Abstract: Pseudoscorpions living in tree microhabitats (dead wood, tree hollows and on or under tree bark) in Slovakia were studied. A total of 504 specimens of 19 taxa from four families were identified from material collected at 63 localities in Slovakia over 11 years. The most numerous species were Mundochthonius carpaticus Rafalski, 1948 and Allochernes wideri (C. L. Koch, 1843), only one specimen of Chthonius heterodactylus Tömösváry, 1882 was present in the studied material. The species Dactylochelifer latreillii (Leach, 1817) and Chernes hahnii (C. L. Koch, 1843) were found in all studied microhabitat types. Altogether 37 specimens of eight species were present in dead wood samples. Low specimen numbers characterised the species in this microhabitat type, the only exception being A. wideri. A total of 32 specimens of nine taxa were collected on or under tree bark. Neobisium sylvaticum (C. L. Koch, 1835) and Neobisium erythrodactylum (L. Koch, 1873) were collected on tree bark using the method of beating branches. The species C. hahnii was found using a tree trunk photoeclector. A total of 435 specimens of 14 taxa were extracted from mould samples from tree hollows. The most numerous species in this habitat type were M. carpaticus and A. wideri, only one specimen was collected each of Chthonius fuscimanus Simon, 1900 and N. erythrodactylum. Pseudoscorpion occurrence in different tree species, height of entry hole and relative humidity is reported.

Zbyněk KejvalNew species, synonymy and records of Mecynotarsus (Coleoptera: Anthicidae)Klapalekiana 53(3–4): 299-322

Abstract: Three new species of Mecynotarsus LaFerté-Sénectère, 1849 are described: M. jebali sp. nov. (United Arab Emirates), M. salam sp. nov. (Saudi Arabia), and M. solomon sp. nov. (Solomon Islands). Mecynotarsus pallidipes (Pic, 1910) is redescribed. Mecynotarsus bison insignatus Pic, 1900 is raised to species level. Three new synonyms are proposed: Mecynotarus bison (A. G. Olivier, 1811) = M. semicinctus Wollaston, 1865 and M. bordonii Uhmann, 2004, syn. nov.), M. forticornis Kejval, 2011 (= M. antennalis Hashimoto et Sakai, 2011). Two new combination, Mecynotarsus viberti (Bonadona, 1964) comb. nov. (from Pseudonotoxus Pic, 1899) and M. pallidipes (Pic, 1910) comb. nov. (from Notoxus Geoffroy, 1762), are proposed. New records of thirty-seven Australian, Palaearctic and Oriental species are given.

Negrobov, Peter Manko & Jozef OboňaContribution to the knowledge of long-legged flies (Diptera: Dolichopodidae) of the Uzh River Basin, with additions to the checklist for UkraineKlapalekiana 53(3–4): 327-336

Abstract: The results of undirected and non-intensive sampling of long-legged flies (Diptera: Dolichopodidae) in the Uzh River Basin are presented. Rhaphium lanceolatum Loew, 1850, Teuchophorus monacanthus Loew, 1859, Teuchophorus simplex Mik, 1880 and Sympycnus simplicipes Becker, 1908 were recorded from Ukraine for the first time. An updated checklist of Dolichopodidae of Ukraine, including 158 species, is added.

Jan Roleček & Lukáš ČížekRecent occurrence of Perotis lugubris (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) in the Czech RepublicKlapalekiana 53(3–4): 337-339

Abstract: Perotis lugubris (Fabricius, 1777) is a large, conspicuous jewel beetle associated with fruit trees in Europe and Western Asia. In Central Europe, it used to occur as far north as Silesia. During the 20th century, however, the range of this species contracted substantially. It has disappeared from Poland and was considered extinct in the Czech Republic. We report recent findings of P. lugubris from southern Moravia, and discuss the conservation status of the rediscovered population.

Robert Stejskal & Jiří Ch. VávraBrouci (Coleoptera) zámeckého parku v Želeticích u ZnojmaKlapalekiana 53(3–4): 341-359

Abstract: We investigated the beetle fauna of Želetice Castle Park, especially the saproxylic species associated with old trees. We visited the park irregularly in 2011, 2013 and 2015. The most important collecting methods were individual sampling, light trapping and sifting of the wood mould taken from hollows in trunks and stumps during tree felling in autumn 2015, when the park went through a general restoration. In total 139 species were recorded, including 31 Red List species. Critically endangered saproxylic species were represented by Elater ferrugineus Linnaeus, 1758 and Ischnodes sanguinicollis (Panzer, 1793), endangered species included Allecula rhenana Bach, 1856, Colobicus hirtus (Rossi, 1790), Corticeus bicoloroides (Roubal, 1933), C. fasciatus Fabricius, 1790, Cyclobacanius soliman (Marseul, 1862), Lucanus cervus (Linnaeus, 1758), Protaetia aeruginosa (Drury, 1770), Rhopalocerus rondanii (A. Villa & J. B. Villa, 1833), Synchita mediolanensis A. Villa & J. B. Villa, 1833 and Thoracophorus corticinus Motschulsky, 1837. In addition, ten vulnerable and three near threatened species were found. The faunistically most interesting species are Cyclobacanius soliman, Latheticus oryzae Waterhouse, 1880 and Rhopalocerus rondanii which, within Znojmo region, are only known from Želetice Park.
