New or interesting records of Carabid beetles from Europe, Madeira, northern Africa, Turkey, from the Near East, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, and Pakistan, with nomenclatorial and taxonomic notes (Coleoptera, Carabidae, Bembidiini, Brachinini, Cyclosomini, Elaphrini, Harpalini, Lebiini, Nebriini, Platynini, Author Wrase, DW text Linzer biologische Beiträge 2009 2009-08-30 41 1 901 935 journal article 10.5281/zenodo.5276330 0253-116X 5276330 Lebia ( Lamprias ) rutilicollis REITTER 1915 I s r a e l: Haifa : Nahal Oren, Mt.

The species was described, based on two specimens , from " Syrien :...Haifa,....Saida" but was only cited as only occurring in Syria in CATPAL 1: KABAK 2003: 428 ). Above mentioned specimen from Nahal Oren, Mt. Carmel, was unidentified but obviously it is coming from the material collected for the "Evolution Canyon" project, made at that place for investigating the processes of biodiversity evolution at a microsite. A checklist of a part of beetle families, collected during this study, was published ( CHIKATUNOV et al. 1999 ), and in this paper a " Lebia ruficollis Reitter 1915 " was recorded but undoubtly the name refers to Lebia rutilicollis REITT. For this species occurrence at Mt. Hermon and Mt. Carmel was mentioned, and the range, beside Israel , was given with Syria and Lebanon . An occurrence at Mt. Hermon, however, seems somewhat implausible due to the great climatic differences between the areas both massifs are situated. Further investigations must elucidate the real range of the species. Above findings also indicate preference for mild, sea-influenced climate. Seemingly first detailed record for Lebanon .
