Ground beetles of the subfamily Lebiinae (Carabidae) of Guinea-Bissau: description of three new species and faunistic notes Author Serrano, Artur R. M. text Zootaxa 2024 2024-03-07 5419 3 361 393 http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5419.3.3 journal article 10.11646/zootaxa.5419.3.3 1175-5326 10791748 E4FECDD5-DF1B-439D-B91C-CB29DADB61F5 * Neocoptodera ( Neocoptodera ) championi (Murray, 1857) Distribution : BFO, DOC, GBI, GUI, NRE, RCI, SLN. Distribution in Guinea-Bissau (Administrative Regions): 2) OIO. Historic records: BissorĂ£ (OIO) [Serrano 2009a sub Coptodera ( Coptoderina ) rugiceps (Murray, 1857) ]. Material examined: BissorĂ£ (OIO), 17.VI.1992, 1 male, LT, A. Serrano leg., ASC. Remarks. The species has a scattered known distribution throughout western and central Africa (Jansen 1968; Lorenz 2021). The male adult specimen of BissorĂ£ was misinterpreted and identified as Coptodera ( Coptoderina ) rugiceps (Murray, 1857) and by Serrano (2009a). Taking this into account, C. rugiceps must be excluded from the known entomofauna of Guinea-Bissau. The male adult specimen matches very well with the description of Neocoptodera championi , including the aedeagus (Jansen 1968). This species is a new record for Guinea-Bissau.
