Remarks.
With respect to the dry record from Carolina, this predominantly southern European (but also synanthropic species) is also known from the USA and several other places, although it is not entirely clear whether
S. coleoptrata
is native or introduced here. Most of the material is from southern Europe and the Canary Islands. The collectors Dirk Striebing, Sepp
Luedecke
and Hella Wendt were all former staff members of the MfN.
