Hemidendroides daglariensis
(Young)
,
new combination
This brings the number of
Hemidendroides
species to four. Like
H. daglariensis
,
H. ledereri
is also known from
Turkey
, while
Hemidendroides peyroni
Reiche
was described from
Syria
. The fourth species,
Hemidendroides davidis
(Fairmaire)
, from Moupin,
China
, was provisionally transferred to
Hemidendroides
from
Pyrochroa
by
Blair (1914)
. I have not seen specimens of either
H. peyroni
or
H. davidis
; their inclusion in the following key follows information in the original descriptions as well as that presented by
Blair (1914)
.
