Description

Pteroloma forsstromii (Gyllenhal, 1810)

Harpalus Forsströmii Gyllenhal, 1810: 111.

Pteroloma forsstromii: NEWTON (1997) (catalogue).

Material examined. CHINA: JILIN PROVINCE : Chang Bai Shan, 42°01.733′ N, 128°03.100′ E, ca. 2195 m, 7.vi.2004, J. Cooter leg., under stones, near crater lake, 1 J (JCHC). HEILONGJIANG PROVINCE: Qing Yuan ca. 29 km S Lang Xian, 46°47.470′ N, 129°03.82′ E, ca. 600–700 m, 25.–29.v.2004, flight interception trap, 1 J (aedeagus missing) (JCHC); same locality, but 46°47.002′ N, 129°08.23′ E, ca. 700 m, 25.–28.v.2004, J. Cooter leg., 1 ♀ (JCHC); same locality, but 46°47.002′ N, 129°04.349′ E, ca. 600 m, 26.v.2004, J. Cooter leg., streamside litter, 1 ♀ (JRPC).

Distribution. Pteroloma forsstromii is a widely distributed Palaearctic species, known also from adjacent areas in the Far East of Russia and North Korea (LAFER 2002, RŮŽIČKA & SCHNEIDER 2003). Specimens from the Heilongjiang province are only tentatively identified, as this species can be reliably separated from related P. sibiricum Székessy, 1935 only based on the shape of male genitalia (LAFER 2002). First record from China (Fig. 27).
