Bruchidius sahelicus Decelle 1979

Description

Bruchidius sahelicus (Decelle, 1979)

Comments. Anton (1998) recorded Bruchidius sahelicus (Decelle, 1979) from Hormozgan province (southern Iran) but this species is absent in the catalogue of Anton (2010). Anton (1998) wrote that the description of B. sahelicus stands out until Motschulsky types are completely studied. It is nearly related to B. arabicus Decelle known from Israel, Saudi Arabia and Yemen (Anton 2010) [L. Borowiec's comment].
