Description

Stenichnus collaris subseriatus FRANZ, 1960 (Scydmaeninae: Stenichnini) is recorded from Poland for the first time. One male was caught in the peatbog Wielkie Błoto near Cracow (S Poland). Because of a great similarity to Stenichnus collaris collaris (MÜLLER & KUNZE, 1822) these two subspecies cannot be easily distinguished by external morphological characters. Photographs of the habitus of S. c. subseriatus and the aedeagi of both subspecies are presented, and the systematic position of the newly recorded taxon is briefly discussed.
