Lixus colchicus Petri, 1904
Lixus colchicus Petri, 1904: 69
Current status: Lixus colchicus Petri, 1904 is a junior synonym of L. elegantulus Boheman, 1842.
Type. In Reitter’s collection at HNHM, is a pinned female fitting the description with type locality as Caucasus and bearing labels: “Caucasus, Araxesthal, Leder.Reitter” printed, “ Lixus colchicus n. sp. Petri”, “ Holotypus, 1904, Lixus colchicus Petri ” red brimmed museum label. It is here designated as lectotype with “ Lectotypus, Ƥ, Lixus colchicus Petri., Gültekin des. 2008”, “ Lixus elegantulus Boh., Gültekin det. 2008”. A pinned male (remounted and aedeagus dissected) bears the labels: “Caucasus, Araxesthal, Leder.Reitter” printed, “ Paratypus, 1904, Lixus colchicus Petri ” red brimmed museum label, and is here designated as paralectotype with “ Paralectotypus, 3, Lixus colchicus Petri., Gültekin des. 2008”, “ Lixus elegantulus Boh., Gültekin det. 2008”.
Remarks. Dissection of the aedeagus reveals that Lixus colchicus is the same as Lixus elegantulus Boheman, 1842. Thus the following new synonymy is proposed here: Lixus elegantulus Boheman, 1842 [= Lixus colchicus Petri, 1904 syn. n.]
