Journal Title: Baltic Journal of Coleopterology - Year 2013, Vol 13, Issue 2
Abstract
The lectotype of Stenus (s.str.) kamtschaticus Motschulsky, 1845 is designated; the name is put in the synonymy of S. (s.str.) clavicornis (Scopoli, 1763). Stenus (s.str.) aquilonius L.Benick, 1921 is revalidated as a species propria; new data on its distribution are provided and discussed. Both S. (s.str.) affinisecretus Zhao & Zhou, 2007 and S. (s.str.) guandiensis Zhao & Zhou, 2007are the synonyms of Stenus (s.str.) aquilonius L.Benick, 1921, not of S. (s.str.) kamtschaticus Motschulsky, 1845.
