C o m m e n t s: The original description of
Oxypoda corcyrica
is explicitly based on a female
holotype
from "Ipsos auf der
Insel
Korfu" (
SCHEERPELTZ 1958
), not from Levkás, as indicated by LÖBL & SCHEERPELTZ (2004); that of
O. bimaculata
is based on
two syntypes
from
Cyprus
(
BAUDI DI SELVE 1870
). An examination of the
holotype
of
O. corcyrica
revealed that it is conspecific with
O. bimaculata
, which is widespread in the Eastern Mediterranean. Material of this species was seen from
Cyprus
,
Greece
(see above), and from
Turkey
(
