Remarks. Omalus biaccinctus is a rare species in the Nordic and Baltic countries. It has not yet been recorded in Lithuania. The species has been classified as vulnerable in Finland (Paukkunen 2010). In Sweden it is also uncommon, but was excluded from the latest national red list (Cederberg et al. 2010). The Latvian specimens were found in LMSZ in Riga, where they had been erroneously identified as O. aeneus by Tumšs.
