Description
Habitus (
Fig. 2D
). Length: 7.0–8.0 mm. Antennomeres testaceous, but the 2
nd
and 3
rd
are slightly lighter than the rest. Palps yellow. Lateral sinuosity of the pronotum relatively long and smooth; lateral sulcus slightly widened. Anterior region of the pronotum slightly punctured; punctuation of the base deep, combined with marked longitudinal clefts that give the surface a striated appearance. Legs entirely testaceous. Median lobe of the aedeagus wide in its median region, clearly arcuate and with the apex narrow and relatively sharp (
Fig. 3I
).
Chorology
Species present along the Mediterranean coast of the Iberian Peninsula,
France
and
Italy
(
Bousquet 2017
).
Ibero-Balearic distribution (
Fig. 5C
): in the Iberian Peninsula, the only precise records of this species come from some localities of the
Catalan
coast (NE
Spain
), but it has also been reported, with no precision, from the coast of
Valencia
(E
Spain
;
Zaballos & Jeanne 1994
).
Biology
The few published comments about its biology remark that, as in other
Pogonini
,
P. pallidipennis
has a sub-lapidicolous life close to wet and saline zones (it can also be collected under other solid objects that act as refuges) (
Español 1964
).
