New and interesting beetle (Coleoptera) records from Portugal (7 note). Author Grosso-Silva, José Manuel text Arquivos Entomolóxicos 2019 2019-11-24 21 211 216 journal article 10.5281/zenodo.12810978 1989-6581 12810978 Leptispa filiformis (Germar, 1842) Material examined: LISBOA: Sintra: Algueirão (29 SMC 79), 20-05-1961 , 1 specimen , L. Ambar leg., Grosso-Silva collection, formerly in the collection of Tristão Branco . Comments: Previously recorded only once from Portugal , from Paiã (Loures), where it was collected twice, in August 1940 and in June 1946 ( CARVALHO, 1950 ). The occurrence of the species in Portugal is not reflected in the works by WARCHAŁOWSKI (2003) And BOROWIEC & SEKERKA (2010) . As a result, the new record presented here, albeit over 50 years old, can be regarded as a confirmation of the presence of Leptispa filiformis in the central-western part of continental Portugal and will hopefully stimulate the search for this very rare species. In Spain, according to VELA LÓPEZ & BASTAZO PARRAS (2008) , this species is only known from the southern provinces of Cádiz And MálAgA, being included by these Authors in the “DAtA deficient” cAtegory in the Andalusian Invertebrate Red Data Book .
