Description

11. Philoctetes truncatus (Dahlbom, 1831)

Chrysis truncata Dahlbom 1831: 35. Lectotype ♂ (designated by Morgan 1984: 10); Sweden (ZMUL) (examined).

Elampus truncatus: Dahlbom 1854: 43, Aurivillius 1911: 6.

Elampus coeruleus [nec Dahlbom, 1854]: Thomson 1870: 104.

Ellampus truncatus: Mocsáry 1889: 95, Berland & Bernard 1938: 34.

Omalus truncatus: Borries 1891: 93, Trautmann 1927: 36, Jansson 1934: 287, Benno 1950: 27, Balthasar 1954: 89, Haupt 1957: 41, Cederberg 2000: 178, Cederberg 2005: 290, Allearter.dk 2010.

Chrysellampus truncatus: Erlandsson 1971: 88.

Philoctetes truncatus: Kimsey & Bohart 1991: 258, Soon 2004: 19, 45, Cederberg et al. 2010: 353, Cederberg 2012, Rosa & Soon 2012, Dyntaxa 2013.

Distribution. Denmark, Estonia, Sweden.—Transpalearctic: from West Europe and North Africa to Russian Far East (Kurzenko & Lelej 2007).

Remarks. The species is known from Denmark, Estonia and Sweden. It has also been reported from Norway by Trautmann (1927: 36, as Omalus truncatus), Benno 1950: 27 (as Omalus truncatus), Balthasar (1954: 89, as Omalus truncatus), Erlandsson (1971: 88, as Chrysellampus truncatus), Soon (2004: 45) and Artsdatabanken 2010. However, the record from Norway is based on an old, unlabeled specimen, which might not have been collected from Norway (Artsdatabanken 2010). In Sweden most records are old and the species has been classified as data deficient in the Swedish red list (Cederberg et al. 2010, Cederberg 2012). Only one recent record is known from the country (Sm: Bergkvara 14–21.VII.1996, by yellow pan trap, leg. Roy Danielsson). In Denmark only old records are known.
