Abstract: Psarus abdominalis (Fabricius, 1794) is a rare and declining species of hoverfly (Diptera: Syrphidae) endemic to Europe. In the Czech Republic, the species is classified as critically endangered. Based on specimens deposited in museum collections, I provide information on the historical distribution of the species in the country. Psarus abdominalis was not recorded in the Czech Republic since 1978. Recently, in 2021, a single male of P. abdominalis was recorded on southern Moravia (in an oak forest near the village of Mutěnice). Detailed information on the record is provided here.
Key words: Diptera, Syrphidae, endangered species, Psarus abdominalis
