Description

New records of Ptilium modestum Wańkowicz in Poland (Coleoptera: Ptiliidae).
Ptilium modestum has been previously recorded in Poland based on a single finding published in 1927, within the region of Lower Silesia. Two new records are presented, one confirming the occurrence of this species in the same south-western area of the country, the other representing the first record for the Wielkopolska-Kujawy Lowland. Remarks on identification of P. modestum are given, with the aedeagus, spermatheca and the male hind leg illustrated for the first time.
