Comments:
According to morphological characters and distributional maps of
O. ruricola
and
O. nigromarginata
in
Rössner (1995)
, the specimens from the
Kaliningrad Region
belong to
O. nigromarginata
and all abovementioned reports from the northern Eastern Prussia and the
Kaliningrad Region
should concern the distributed in northern and eastern Europe
O. nigromarginata
only. The beetle occasionally and sporadically occurs in the
Kaliningrad Region
on the sun exposed meadows.
