Lacordaire (1842)
synonymized
M. puncticollis
under
M. nigropunctatus
(one of the new junior synonyms of
M. ornatus
proposed here, see above). Based on the description and redescription of
M. puncticollis
(
Duponchel 1825: 54
and
Lacordaire 1842: 142
), we’ve noted that this species is just another variation of
M. ornatus
.
