COMMENTS
:
Brehm
based his description on a specimen he had been sent by
Zander
from
Lübz in Mecklenburg. He
noted on his label of this specimen that it was collected in
Lübz
in conifer forest (‘‘Nadelwalde’’), and he also marked it ‘‘
Urexemplar’
’.
Other specimens
in his possession were mentioned from
Renthendorf
,
Pommern
, and Görlitz. Specimens collected in some of these localities and before the publication date of the name were exchanged to
ZMB
; they would be
paratypes
if labeled
pinetorum
in Brehm’s hand.
