Journal Title: Baltic Journal of Coleopterology - Year 2014, Vol 14, Issue 1

Abstract

New distributional records from Nepal for thirteen species of the genus Carpelimus Leach,1819 are presented. Six species are new for the fauna of Nepal: Carpelimus (Bucephalinus) laticeps (Cameron, 1930); Carpelimus (s.str.) congruus (Cameron, 1930); Carpelimus (s.str.) indicus (Kraatz, 1859); Carpelimus (Trogophloeus) bengalensis (Cameron, 1930); Carpelimus (Trogophloeus) corticinus (Gravenhorst, 1806); Carpelimus (Trogophloeus) palitans (Cameron, 1930). Two new combinations are proposed: Carpelimus (Bucephalinus) kathmanduensis Herman, 2001, comb. n. and Carpelimus (Bucephalinus) nepalicus (Coiffait, 1982), comb. n.
