ff.;
syn. nov.
The original description of
Atheta biroi
is based on “1 ♂, 1 ♀, Typen,
76 Ex.
,
Paratypen
” from “Herakleion” (
SCHEERPELTZ 1964
). According to Jürgen Vogel (Görlitz), who revised type specimens, this material is conspecific with the widespread and common
A. nigra
. Hence the synonymy proposed above.
