Coptocephala atra Pic, 1932: 23 (original description). Coptocephala unicolor var. aenescens Pic, 1932: 23 (original description). Type localities. Clythra unicolor :‘environs de Constantine et du cercle de la Calle’ [ Algeria ]. Coptocephala atra : ‘ Maroc : Rabat’. Coptocephala unicolor var. aenescens : ‘Philippeville’ [= Algeria , Skikda ]. Type material examined. Clythra unicolor : not examined. Coptocephala atra : SYNTYPE : 1 ♂, ‘Rabat: Maroc / Le Chilla / 21 Mai 1923 [b, h] // Coptocephala / atra n sp [w, h]’ ( MNHN – coll. Pic). Coptocephala unicolor var. aenescens : SYNTYPE : 1 ♂, ‘Philippeville [w, h] // v. aenescens / Pic [w, h]’ ( MNHN – coll. Pic). Distribution. Algeria , Italy , Malta , Morocco , Portugal , Spain , Tunisia ( REGALIN & MEDVEDEV 2010b ). Comments. Coptocephala unicolor group badly needs comprehensive revision based on examination of the primary type material. Until then we follow the arrangement as published by REGALIN & MEDVEDEV (2010b) ; thus C. atra and C. unicolor var. aenescens are left as synonyms of C. unicolor .
