Elytral apices in males simple, margin quite evenly shaped (not swollen, channel of gland absent). Male sternum VII rather short, with slight median emargination; sternum VIII forming paired, subtriangular, asetose, weakly sclerotized sclerites; tergum VII and VIII simple. Female sternum VII simple; tergum VII subtriangular, slightly produced apically; aedeagus ( Figs 66, 67 ). Variation. Body length ( ♀ ) 2.1–2.9 mm ; elytra unicolorous reddish or vaguely brownish laterally. Distribution. Syria , Turkey . Remarks. PIC (1897a) described Anthicus globipennis from an unstated number of specimens collected by F. J. Leuthner at the locality Jabal al Akrad, which is a mountainous region ( 400–1000 m ) in northwestern Syria along the Coastal Mountain Range. SAHLBERG (1913a) described Anthicus globipennis quercicola and KREKICH- STRASSOLDO (1913) described A. globipennis var. quercicola , based on specimens from same collection sample (Bulghar Dagh Mts, near Turunschli, from flowering Quercus ilex , 25.–28.iv.1906 , J. & U. Sahlberg lgt.). Sahlberg sent representatives of this species to Krekich-Strassoldo for his comments, and subsequently received a letter from Krekich-Strassoldo confirming that ‘ Anthicus quercicola Sahlberg’ was a variety of A. globipennis Pic ( SAHLBERG 1913a: 61 ). Sahlberg’s description was published in issue 8 of volume 55 [ 1912–1913 ] of the Öfversigt af Finska Vetenskaps-Societetens Förhandlingar which when compared with dates of publication found in the following volumes of this journal suggested that this issue was published in April or May of 1913. Krekich-Strassoldo’s description of the same taxon was published in issue VII/VIII of volume 32 of the Wiener Entomologische Zeitung , dated July 15, 1913 . While the date of issue cannot be precisely identified for Sahlberg’s paper, it was published in the first half of the year 1913, and Sahlberg indicated later in that year ( SAHLBERG 1913c: 193 ) [published September, 2013] that the name of Krekich- -Strassoldo was a junior synonym.
