            <p> Comment. The original description of  Leptacinus niger Coiffait, 1966 , a preoccupied name later replaced with  L. nigerrimus by Coiffait (1971), is based on a single holotype male from "Caucase, 2200 m, sans autre précision de lieu" (Coiffait 1966b). It was later reported also from Turkey (" Turquie orientale: Tahir 2400 m ") by Coiffait (1973). The above records suggest that the species is widespread in Turkey. The male specimen from Rize is distinguished from the material collected in Muġla by paler coloration (posterior margin of elytra broadly yellowish, abdominal apex yellowish brown, legs rufous) and by a more deeply concave sternite VIII, but the aedeagus is identical. </p>

            <p>Additional material examined. TURKEY: Istanbul: 1ɗ, "Belgrader Wald", 1.–7.VII.1954, leg. Schubert (NHMW).</p>
            <p> Comment. The original description of  Xantholinus ottomanus is based on a single " type " "taken at Beikos, in August, 1903, under a stone" (Cameron 1912). The male holotype was studied and its habitus and sexual characters were illustrated by Coiffait (1971), who assigned it to the nominal subgenus of the genus  Vulda . </p>
            <p> Xantholinus anatolicus was originally described based on a single holotype male from the Abant Daġları near Bolu. Coiffait (1965, 1972) assigned the species to the subgenus  Leptophallus Coiffait, 1956 a (now a synonym of  Megalinus Mulsant &amp; Rey, 1877 ) of the genus  Xantholinus . Bordoni (1985) subsequently transferred it to the subgenus  Neoleptophallus Bordoni, 1985 . An examination of the holotype revealed that it refers to the genus  Vulda Jacquelin du Val, 1853 and that the illustration of the aedeagus provided by Coiffait (1965, 1972) is highly misleading. </p>
            <p> At first glance, the holotypes of  V. ottomana and  V. anatolica appear to refer to different species. The former has large and bulging eyes, a posteriorly somewhat tapering head, long elytra, and fully developed hind wings (Fig. 99), whereas the latter has small eyes not distinctly projecting from the lateral contours of the head, a head with subparallel lateral margins (dorsal view), distinctly shorter elytra, and reduced hind wings. The primary and secondary sexual characters, however, are practically identical and, moreover, other external characters (coloration, size, proportion, microsculpture, etc.) are highly similar, suggesting that both holotypes belong to the same dimorphic species. There is also zoogeographic evidence supporting this conclusion: the male specimen listed above as additional material resembles the holotype of  V. anatolica both in external and in sexual characters, but was found in Istanbul close to the type locality of  V. ottomana (Fig. 13). Since the latter is the senior name, it takes precedence, and  V. anatolica is here placed in synonymy with V. o t t o m a n a. </p>

Coloration: head blackish brown to blackish; pronotum reddish to dark brown; elytra yellowish to pale reddish; abdomen yellowish brown to brown; legs yellowish to reddish; antennae dark brown, with the basal 3 antennomeres reddish to reddish brown.</p>
            <p>Head distinctly oblong (see measurements and ratio HL/HW) and of subrectangular shape (brachypterous morph, Fig. 2) or tapering posteriad (macropterous morph, Fig. 99); eyes small (Fig. 3), not projecting from lateral outline of head, approximately 1/4 the length of postocular region in dorsal view (brachypterous morph), or large and distinctly bulging (Fig. 99), approximately half the length of postocular region in dorsal view (macropterous morph); dorsal surface with rather sparse fine punctures and interspersed larger punctures; microsculpture absent. Antenna with antennomere I approximately as long as the combined length of antennomeres II–V; II and III oblong and of subequal length; IV weakly transverse; V–X weakly to moderately transverse (Fig. 4).</p>
            <p>Pronotum slender, distinctly narrower and smaller than head (see ratio PW/HW), weakly tapering posteriad; lateral margins straight or shallowly sinuate in dorsal view; dorsal series composed of 10–11 punctures; whole surface with very fine and rather sparse punctures, lateral areas with interspersed coarse punctures; microsculpture absent (Figs. 2, 99).</p>
            <p>Elytra distinctly shorter and slightly wider than pronotum (brachypterous morph) or almost as long and distinctly wider than pronotum (macropterous morph) (see ratios EL/PL and EW/PW); puncturation more or less well-defined and moderately dense (Figs. 2, 99). Hind wings completely reduced (brachypterous morph) or fully developed (macropterous morph). Legs moderately slender (see measurements and ratio TiL/TaL).</p>
            <p>Abdomen approximately as wide as (brachypterous morph) or narrower than elytra (macropterous morph), widest at segments VI/VII; puncturation fine, sparser on posterior than on anterior tergites; surface with shallow, but distinct microsculpture; posterior margin of tergite VII with (macropterous morph) or without palisade fringe (brachypterous morph).</p>
            <p>ɗ: aedeagus slender and relatively small, with moderately sclerotised internal tube (Figs. 5–6, 14–15, 100).</p>
            <p> Comparative notes. Aside from  V. ottomana , two species of  Vulda have been described from Turkey:  Vulda (Typhlodes) brignolii Bordoni, 1973 a (Amasya), and  V. (T.) vignai Bordoni, 1973 a (Bolu). From the latter, whose description is based on a single female,  V. ottomana is readily distinguished by much smaller size (  V. vignai : 13 mm), bicoloured body (in  V. vignai uniformly pale brown), and larger eyes. From  V. brignolii it is separated by the bicoloured body (in  V. brignolii uniformly brown), a distinctly more slender head and pronotum, and a completely different morphology of the aedeagus. For illustrations of the habitus and male sexual characters of these species see Bordoni (1973a). </p>
            <p> Subgeneric placement. Based on the reductions of eye size, elytral length, hind wings, and palisade fringe at the posterior margin of the abdominal tergite VII, the brachypterous morph would have to be attributed to the subgenus  Typhlodes Sharp, 1873 , whereas the macropterous morph is currently in the subgenus  Vulda . The fact that, based on the current subgeneric concept, one of the two morphs would have to be placed in  Vulda and the other in  Typhlodes , suggests that this subgeneric system is highly artificial. Therefore, this and the followings species are attributed to neither of these subgenera. </p>
            <p> Distribution and bionomics. The species has become known from three localities in northwestern Turkey, one in Bolu (type locality of  V. anatolica ) and two in Istanbul province (Fig. 13). The three specimens were collected in May, July, and August. The non-type specimen from Istanbul is apparently slightly teneral. The holotype of  V. ottomana was found under a stone. </p>

            <p> Comment. The specimen, unfortunately a female, is labelled with the same data as one of the males of  V. cangalica , but is distinguished from that species by larger size, more uniformly reddish coloration, as well as by much smaller eyes. It evidently refers to an undescribed species. However, since an adequate description should be based on the male genitalia, it remains unnamed for the time being. </p>

            <p>ɗ: posterior margin of tergite VIII weakly concave in the middle (Fig. 18); sternite VIII posteriorly with membranous margin and broadly concave (Fig. 19); internal sac of aedeagus with long and weakly sclerotised tube, distally with several short series of sclerotised spines (Figs. 20–21).</p>
            <p> Distribution and bionomics.  Xantholinus gridellii has been recorded from various countries in the Middle East (Israel, Lebanon, Syria, Cyprus) (Coiffait 1956a, 1972, Herman 2001, Smetana 2004). The species has also been reported from Algeria (Bordoni 1976a, Herman 2001, Smetana 2004), but this record seems doubtful and requires confirmation. The specimens from Gaziantep represent the first record of this species from Turkey;  X. gridellii carius Coiffait, 1972 , which was described from southwestern Turkey, was recently synonymised with  X. graecus Kraatz, 1858 (Assing 2006a) . All the additional material listed above was found at lower altitudes, at least partly in unforested habitats. </p>

            <p>Comment. The species is apparently widespread and not uncommon in northwestern Anatolia. Previously, only the holotype from "Draganaz gecidi"—this locality is probably misspelled and apparently refers to "Drannaz" [= Diranaz] geçidi—had become known. The aedeagus of the holotype is illustrated by Assing (2006a). The currently known distribution of the species is mapped in Fig. 22.</p>

            <p> Comment. The original description of  X. reitteri is based on a single holotype male from "Caucase, Swaneten [sic]" (Coiffait 1966a, 1972). Consequently, the five specimens in the Reitter collection (HNHM) labelled as paratypes by Coiffait do not have type status.  Xantholinus svanetskiensis was originally described based on a single holotype male from "Svanetskij Khrebet, Causace [sic]" (Coiffait 1973). </p>
            <p> There has been considerable confusion regarding the identities of  X. reitteri ,  X. fortepunctatus Motschulsky, 1860 , and  X. semirufus Reitter, 1901 (see discussion in section on  X. fortepunctatus ). According to Bordoni (1975a), the interpretation of  X. fortepunctatus by Coiffait (1972) and Korge (1973) is incorrect. An examination of the holotype of  X. reitteri revealed that it is conspecific with  X. fortepunctatus sensu Coiffait (1972) and Korge (1973). Bordoni (1999a), who designated a lectotype for  X. fortepunctatus , referred Coiffait´s (1972) and Korge´s (1973) interpretation of  X. fortepunctatus to a new species,  X. (Helicophallus) motschulskyi , without designating a holotype and apparently also without examining the type material, but stating that the species was "nota al momento con sicurezza dell'Iran (Gilan)". Hence, the specimens from Gilan indicated by Korge (1973) have syntype status. One of the males from the type series is here designated as the lectotype of  X. motschulskyi . Since the aedeagi of this specimen and that of the holotype of  X. svanetskiensis are identical to that of the holotype of  X. reitteri , it follows that both  X. motschulskyi and  X. svanetskiensis are junior synonyms of the senior name  X. reitteri . According to the descriptions and illustrations in Coiffait (1966a, 1972), there are no spines in the distal part of the aedeagus. However, these can only be seen properly in lateral view and were probably overlooked. The aedeagus and its internal structures of  X. reitteri are illustrated in Figs. 23–26, that of the holotype in Fig. 98. For comparison see also the illustrations of the aedeagus of  X. fortepunctatus by Korge (1973), of  X. reitteri and  X. svanetskiensis by Coiffait (1972, 1973), and of  X. reitteri by Bordoni (1975a). </p>
            <p> Owing to the previous taxonomic confusion, most of the zoogeographic data in the literature pertaining to  X. fortepunctatus are unclear and part of the records of  X. fortepunctatus in fact refer to  X. reitteri . Reliable records of  X. reitteri were previously known from Georgia and Azerbaijan (Bordoni 1975a, Coiffait 1966a, Ushakov 1988); according to Ushakov (1988), the species is widespread in the Caucasus region. It is here reported from Turkey (where it is probably confined to the extreme northeast) (Fig. 22) and Iran for the first time. </p>

            <p> Comment. The species was originally described from Lebanon and later also reported from Cyprus and Turkey (Bordoni 1971, 1976a; Herman 2001; Smetana 2004). The record from Turkey (Bordoni 1971, 1976a), however, is in fact from the Greek island Meyísti off the coast of western Antalya province and would consequently refer to Greece, not Turkey. The aedeagus of the specimen is mounted on a separate slide and was made available to me by Arnaldo Bordoni; it clearly does not refer to  X. sidonensis . Consequently, the species is deleted from the list of Turkish  Staphylinidae .  Xantholinus sidonensis is here recorded from Israel for the first time. The aedeagus of the holotype is illustrated in Fig. 27. </p>

            <p> Comment. The original description of  X. rufipennis is based on an unspecified number of syntypes from Sicily and " Syria " ("habitat in Sicilia, Dom. Dr. Schultz, in Syria, Dom. Dr. Aubé") (Erichson 1839a). Two syntypes, a male and a female, were found in the historical collection of MNHUB. In order to define the identity of this species, the male is here designated as the lectotype. The original description of  X. phenicius is based on a male holotype and a female paratype from "Kartaba, Liban ". The male holotype is apparently deposited in the Fagel collection in Brussels, but, according to the chief curator in charge, a loan of material from this institution is currently not possible, owing to a lack of staff (Desender, pers. comm.). However, based on an examination of the paratype from the Coiffait collection and of numerous additional specimens from the Eastern Mediterranen, as well as on the illustration of the aedeagus by Coiffait (1971), there is no doubt that the type material of  X. rufipennis and  X. phenicius is conspecific and that, consequently,  X. phenicius is a junior synonym of  X. rufipennis . The habitus and the aedeagus of the lectotype and the aedeagus of a male from Cyprus are illustrated in Figs. 28–30. </p>
            <p>Distribution and bionomics. The species is widespread in the Eastern Mediterranean from Italy to Israel (Bordoni 1972a, 1975b, Coiffait 1972, Smetana 2004). It seems worth noting that it has been recorded especially from localities close to the Mediterranean coast and from various islands (Sicily, Crete, Karpathos, Cyclades, Cyprus) (Fig. 31).</p>
            <p>Most of the material listed above was collected at low to intermediate altitudes in various types of grassland and in fallows. One specimen collected in April is teneral.</p>

            <p> Comment. The original description of  X. nicolasi is based on a single male holotype from Ípiros, Greece. The type series of  X. pantokratoris is composed of a male holotype and four female paratypes from "Corfù, M.te Pantokràtor, m 900" (Bordoni 1975b). An examination of the aedeagus of the holotype of  X. nicolasi revealed that it is identical to that depicted of the holotype of  X. pantokratoris by Bordoni (1975b); hence the synonymy proposed above. The illustration of the aedeagus of  X. nicolasi in Coiffait (1972) is misleading, since it shows the presence of only two large distal spines. The species is widespread in Greece; a recent distribution map (for  X. pantokratoris ) is provided by Assing (2006b). </p>

            <p> Comment. The original description is based on a male holotype and two female paratypes from "Kilikischer Taurus, Sertaval [recte: Sertavul] Pass" (Bordoni 1979). Previous requests for a loan of the holotype had been denied, so that the identification of specimens earlier recorded from Antalya and Kahramanmaraş and tentatively attributed to  X. puthzi by Assing (2006a) had to rely on the details indicated in the original description, especially the illustration of the aedeagus. An examination of the holotype, however, revealed that they refer to different species (see below). </p>

This species is reliably distinguished from similar bicoloured  Calolinus species occurring in Turkey (  X. rufipennis ,  X. puthzi , and the two following species) by the shape and the internal structures of the aedeagus. From  X. rufipennis and  X. puthzi , it is additionally separated by the shorter elytra and the reduced length of the hind wings. For additional characters distinguishing  X. ibex from the two following species see the comparative notes in the respective sections below. </p>
            <p> Etymology. The name (Lat., noun in apposition) refers to the shape of the internal structures of the aedeagus, which in lateral view somewhat resemble the horn of an  ibex . </p>
            <p> Distribution and bionomics. The distribution of  X. ibex is apparently confined to Muġla and western Antalya in southwestern Anatolia (Fig. 58). The two type specimens from Muġla were sifted from the leaf litter in an oak forest and below scattered deciduous trees and shrubs at altitudes of 970 and 1450 m. </p>

            <p> Habitus as in Fig. 42. External characters as in  X. ibex (Figs. 42–44), but distinguished as follows: </p>
            <p>Pronotum paler, dark brown, with the anterior angles reddish. Puncturation of head finer. Pronotum slightly more strongly tapering posteriad. Elytra with finer and less well-defined puncturation and with less smooth interstices. Abdomen with finer puncturation and with more pronounced microsculpture.</p>
            <p>ɗ: posterior margins of tergite and sternite VIII weakly convex; aedeagus distinctly longer (see measurements) and more slender, internally with two long series of distinctly sclerotised spines, the left series with very long and slender spines, the right series with more numerous and shorter spines; distally without separate clusters or series of spines or spine-like structures (Figs. 45–47).</p>
            <p> Comparative notes. The new species is characterised especially by the distinctive morphology of the aedeagus. Like  X. ibex , it is additionally separated from  X. rufipennis and  X. puthzi by the shorter elytra and the reduced length of the hind wings. </p>
            <p>Etymology. The name (Lat., adjective) is derived from the ancient name of the province capital Kahramanmaraş.</p>
            <p>Distribution and bionomics. The species is known only from the type locality, which is situated to the southwest of Kahramanmaraş, central southern Anatolia (Fig. 58). The two type specimens were collected by sifting grass roots, moss, and the litter of shrubs on a calcareous slope at an altitude of 660 m (Fig. 48).</p>

            <p>Habitus as in Fig. 49. Distinctly bicoloured species, but coloration somewhat variable: head, pronotum, and abdomen dark brown to black; elytra dark yellowish, yellowish brown, or bright reddish; legs yellowish brown; antennae reddish brown.</p>
            <p>Head moderately oblong (see measurements and ratio HL/HW); maximal width at some distance behind eyes; lateral margins weakly convex in dorsal view (Fig. 50); eyes of moderate size (Fig. 51), weakly projecting from lateral outline of head, slightly less than 1/3 the length of postocular region in dorsal view; dorsal surface with sparse and relatively coarse puncturation and interspersed micropunctures, median dorsal area almost without coarse punctures; microsculpture absent in median dorsal area, in lateral areas sometimes with shallow traces of microsculpture. Antenna with antennomeres V–X approximately 1.5 times as wide as long.</p>
            <p>Pronotum slightly narrower than head (see ratio PW/HW), moderately tapering posteriad; lateral margins almost straight in dorsal view; dorsal series usually composed of 9 punctures; microsculpture absent (Fig. 50). Elytra shorter and distinctly wider than pronotum (see ratios EL/PL and EW/PW), distinctly dilated posteriad (Fig. 50); puncturation mostly well-defined, interstices on average as wide as or slightly wider than diameter of punctures. Hind wings apparently fully developed.</p>
            <p>Abdomen as least slightly narrower than elytra, widest at segments VI/VII; puncturation fine; all tergites with shallow, but distinct transverse microsculpture; posterior margin of tergite VII with palisade fringe. ɗ: posterior margin of tergite VIII weakly concave and with numerous long marginal setae (Fig. 52); posterior margin of sternite VIII weakly convex; aedeagus with distinctive internal structures; in dorsal view with 3 series of distinctly sclerotised spines, a relatively short distal left series with very long, curved, and moderately stout spines, a long central series with 9–11 very stout, short, broad-based, and curved spines, and a right series with conspicuously long and slender uncurved spines, distally with an additional brush-like cluster of long, slender, and apically curved spines (Fig. 57).</p>
            <p> Comparative notes.  Xantholinus penicillatus is separated from other  Calolinus species especially by the morphology of the aedeagus, from the two preceding species also by somewhat shorter head, by more prominent eyes, relatively longer and posteriorly more distinctly dilated elytra, and longer hind wings. The aedeagus to some extent resembles the illustration of that of the holotype of  X. puthzi in Bordoni (1979), but is distinctly larger (see measurements) and has internal structures of different morphology; for a new illustration of the aedeagus of  X. puthzi see Fig. 99. </p>
            <p>Etymology. The name (Lat., adj.: with a brush) refers to the characteristic distal brush-like structure of the aedeagus.</p>
            <p>Distribution and bionomics. The species is currently known from three localites in Muġla and Konya (Fig. 58). The holotype was sifted from the roots of grass and herbs at an altitude of 1750 m.</p>

            <p> Comment. Coiffait (1966a) based the original description of  X. lederi on a single holotype male from the Caucasus, without specification of the locality. An examination of the aedeagus revealed that it is conspecific with  X. crassicornis ; hence the synonymy proposed above. </p>
            <p> In the original description of  Xantholinus martensi , which is based on a male holotype and two female paratypes, Bordoni (1983) assigns the species to the subgenus  Calolinus , without reference to  X. crassicornis . A comparison of the holotype of  X. martensi with material of  X. crassicornis yielded no significant differences or other evidence that the former should represent a distinct species, so that  X. martensi is here placed in the synonymy of  X. crassicornis . </p>
            <p>The previously known distribution was confined to Georgia, the Russian South European territory, and northeastern Turkey (Herman 2001, Korge 1973, Smetana 2004). The species is here recorded from Azerbaijan for the first time.</p>

            <p>Comment. The original description of this species is based on a single holotype male from " Turquie d'Asie, Kirklar Daġlari [sic; = Soġanlı Daġları] près de Çamlık au sud de Rize, 2000 m " [ca. 40°37'N, 40°13'E] (Coiffait 1965). Coiffait (1978) later reported the species also from "Drannaz Dag" [= Diranaz Daġı, ca. 41°44'N, 34°54'E], Sinop province, but in view of the zoogeography of other staphylinids with restricted distributions in northern Anatolia, this record is highly doubtful. The currently known distribution is mapped in Fig. 93. The aedeagus of a specimen from Trabzon is illustrated in Fig. 92.</p>

            <p>Comment. The species was originally described from the surroundings of Maykop in the northwestern Caucasus region. The aedeagi of the material seen from Georgia (all of them males) are identical to the illustrations provided by Coiffait (1966a, 1972) and Bordoni (1975a). The species was previously unknown from Georgia.</p>

            <p>Comment. According to the original description, the type locality is " Turchia, Tauro, Anemas [recte: Anamas]" (Bordoni 1972b), which presumably refers to the Anamasdaġı in Isparta (37°47'N, 31°13'E). The additional specimens listed above, unfortunately all females, were collected near the type locality, but their identification must be considered tentative.

            <p>Habitus as in Fig. 63. Distinctly bicoloured species: head, pronotum, and abdomen blackish; elytra bright reddish; legs reddish brown; antennae dark reddish brown.</p>
            <p>Head strongly oblong (see measurements and ratio HL/HW), weakly dilated posteriorly; lateral margins weakly convex in dorsal view (Fig. 64); eyes moderately small (Fig. 65), weakly projecting from lateral outline of head, little more than 1/4 the length of postocular region in dorsal view; dorsal surface with sparse, well-defined, and relatively coarse puncturation and with very few interspersed micropunctures, median dorsal area almost without coarse punctures; microsculpture absent. Antenna with antennomeres V–X weakly transverse, less than 1.5 times as wide as long (Fig. 66).</p>
            <p>Pronotum distinctly narrower than head (see ratio PW/HW), distinctly tapering posteriad; lateral margins almost straight in dorsal view; dorsal series composed of 11–12 punctures; microsculpture absent (Fig. 64).</p>
            <p>Elytra somewhat shorter and distinctly wider than pronotum (see ratios EL/PL and EW/PW), weakly dilated posteriad (Fig. 64); puncturation mostly well-defined, interstices on average slightly wider than diameter of punctures. Hind wings apparently fully developed. Legs relatively long (see measurements).</p>
            <p>Abdomen slightly narrower than elytra, subparallel, segments III–VII of subequal width; puncturation fine, but distinct; all tergites with distinct transverse microsculpture; posterior margin of tergite VII with palisade fringe.</p>
            <p>ɗ: posterior margins of tergite and sternite VIII weakly convex; aedeagus relatively large (Figs. 67–68), with internal structures composed of a long series of 35–40 long sclerotised spines (with some interspersed smaller spines), distally with a brush-like cluster of long and slender semitransparent spines and 3 additional short series of sclerotised spines: one of them composed of approximately 13–15 large and oblong spines (proximally extending into a series of numerous distinctly smaller semitransparent spines), one composed of 10 proximally very large and distally gradually smaller spines, and a central series composed of approximately 10 smaller spines (Figs. 69–74).</p>
            <p> Comparative notes. Unlike many other subgenera and species groups of  Xantholinus , the subgenus  Helicophallus is characterised by relatively little interspecific variation of the aedeagal morphology, so that a separation of species based on an examination of an intact aedeagus may prove difficult. The internal structures are best evaluated after dissecting them, squeezing them (in order to make all spines visible), and examining them under a compound microscope. </p>
            <p> From other  Helicophallus species occurring in southern Turkey,  X. multispinosus is separated as follows: </p>
            <p> from  X. tauricus (see Fig. 60) by a larger aedeagus, by much more numerous spines of less oblong shape, and by the presence of a distal brush-like cluster of semitransparent spines; </p>
            <p> from  X. luteipennis (see Figs. 61–62) by larger body size and by a larger aedeagus with distally longer and more slender spines, and distally with shorter and less slender spines; </p>
            <p> from  X. lividipennis (see figure 98C in Coiffait 1982) by larger body size and by an aedeagus with more numerous and distally larger and longer spines. </p>
            <p> Since it was not possible to examine the holotype of  X. lividipennis , which is deposited in the Fagel collection (see comments in section on  X. rufipennis ), the comparison has to be based on the illustration by Coiffait (1972), which depicts an aedeagus with half-extruded internal structures and provides only rough details on the morphology of the internal structures. </p>
            <p>Etymology. The name (Lat., adj.) refers to the great number of spines in the aedeagus. Distribution and bionomics. The species was discovered in two localities in Mersin, central southern Anatolia (Fig. 84), at altitudes of 1300 and nearly 1400 m.</p>

            <p>ɗ: aedeagus (Figs. 79–80) smaller; internally with less numerous and shorter spines (Fig. 81–83).</p>
            <p> Comparative notes. For distinguishing characters separating  X. brevispinosus from  X. multispinosus see the description above. From other  Helicophallus species occurring in southern Turkey,  X. multispinosus is separated as follows: </p>
            <p> from  X. tauricus (see Fig. 60) by smaller size, a larger aedeagus, by more numerous and shorter spines, and by the presence of a distal brush-like cluster of semitransparent spines; </p>

            <p> from  X. lividipennis (see figure 98C in Coiffait 1982) by an aedeagus with more numerous spines. </p>
            <p> For additional remarks see the comparative notes in the section on  X. multispinosus . </p>
            <p> Etymology. The name (Lat., adj.) alludes to the relatively short spines in the aedeagus, a character separating this species from the similar  X. multispinosus . </p>
            <p>Distribution and bionomics. The type locality is situated in Antalya province, southern Anatolia (Fig. 84), at an altitude of nearly 1500–1800 m. Additional bionomic data are not available.</p>

            <p>Habitus as in Fig. 85. Coloration: head and pronotum reddish brown to dark brown, with the head sometimes somewhat darker than pronotum; elytra bright reddish; abdomen brown to blackish brown; legs dark yellowish; antennae reddish to brown.</p>
            <p>Head strongly oblong (see measurements and ratio HL/HW), weakly dilated posteriorly; lateral margins weakly convex in dorsal view (Fig. 86); eyes small (Fig. 87), not distinctly projecting from lateral outline of head, approximately 1/5 the length of postocular region in dorsal view; dorsal surface with sparse, welldefined, and relatively fine puncturation, median dorsal area almost without punctures; microsculpture present only in posterior and lateral areas of head (Fig. 87). Antenna with preapical antennomeres weakly transverse, at most 1.5 times as wide as long (Fig. 88).</p>
            <p>Pronotum distinctly narrower than head (see ratio PW/HW), distinctly tapering posteriad; lateral margins almost straight in dorsal view; dorsal series composed of 9–12 punctures; microsculpture absent (Fig. 86).</p>
            <p>Elytra somewhat wider than pronotum and of variable length, at suture distinctly shorter than pronotum (see ratios EL/PL and EW/PW), weakly dilated posteriad (Fig. 86); puncturation of variable density and more or less well-defined. Hind wings at least in some specimens of reduced length. Legs relatively short (see measurements).</p>
            <p>Abdomen approximately as wide as elytra, widest at segments VI/VII; puncturation variable, usually fine and moderately dense; all tergites with distinct transverse microsculpture; posterior margin of tergite VII with narrow palisade fringe.</p>
            <p>ɗ: posterior margins of tergite and sternite VIII weakly convex and narrowly semitransparent; aedeagus (Fig. 89) with internal structures composed of a proximal series of approximately 15–20 relatively short and distinctly slerotised spines, a distal series of approximately 20 long and distinctly sclerotised spines, a distal series of approximately 20 moderately long and distinctly sclerotised spines, distally continued in a series of approximately 25 very short and weakly sclerotised spines, an intermediate distal series composed of 10–15 moderately sclerotised spines of gradually decreasing length, and a distal brush-like cluster of long and weakly sclerotised spines (Figs. 90–91).</p>
            <p> Comparative notes. The new species is characterised especially by the internal structures of the aedeagus. From the southern Anatolian representatives of  Helicophallus , it is additionally separated by the paler coloration of the head, pronotum, and abdomen, and by the presence of microsculpture in the lateral and posterior areas of the head. From the northeastern Anatolian  X. korgei , it is also distinguished by the distinctly longer elytra and by the paler coloration of the whole body, especially of the elytra (in  X. korgei dark brown). The aedeagus of  X. korgei differs from that of X. bitlisicus— even without squeeze preparation—in the darker and wider proximal series, as well as in the distinctly separate additional distal series of spines (see Fig. 92). </p>

            <p> Comment. The original description of  X. procerus is based on an unspecified number of syntypes collected "in Germania boreali, Dom. Schmidt, in Hispania, Mus. Dr. Waltl, in Sardinia, Mus. Reg. Taurin" (Erichson 1839a). Two male syntypes from " Germania " were found in the collections of the MNHUB. Since they are conspecific with the interpretation of previous authors (e. g., Coiffait 1972; Bordoni 1973b, 1975a; Szujecki 1976; Toth 1989), one of them is here designated as the lectotype. Based on the current state of knowledge regarding the distribution of  X. procerus (see discussion below), the syntypes from Sardinia and Spain doubtlessly refer to other species, so that a lectotype designation is indispensable in the interest of nomenclatural stability. The syntypes from Spain were looked for, but not found, in the collections of the NHMW, where the Waltl material is kept (Schillhammer, pers. comm. 2006), and the types from Sardinia are currently not at disposal for loan due to lack of staff at the Torino museum (Daccordi, pers. comm. 2006). </p>
            <p> The distribution of  X. procerus has been subject to considerable confusion in the literature, despite its remarkable size and the distinctive morphology of its aedeagus. According to Kraatz (1857), the types from " Germania " were collected in "Stettin", today Szczecin in Pomerania, northwestern Poland. Other records from central Europe were either doubtful or unknown to him. Hochhuth (1849) recorded the species from what is today Azerbaijan and Georgia. Up until the middle of the 20th century, the species was unequivocally indicated from Central Europe, Italy, and Spain; for a list of references see Herman (2001). In central Europe, Reitter (1909) reported it from Bohemia (now in Czech Republic) and Pomerania, but there is no mention of  X. procerus in the key to Central European  Staphylinidae by Lohse (1964), nor in Horion (1965), nor is it listed for the Czech Republic by Boháč (1993). According to the synopsis of Western Palaearctic  Xantholinini by Coiffait (1972), the distribution was confined to Central Europe, which in his interpretation included " Hongrie meridionale" (now part Romania and Serbia) and "Bukovine" (today part of Romania and Ukraine); records from Spain and Sardinia were considered doubtful. Bordoni (1972a, 1982) and Tóth (1989) excluded  X. procerus from the fauna of Italy (where it is replaced by the similar  X. proceroides Coiffait ) and of Hungary, respectively. According to Bordoni (1973b, 1975a) the range was confined to Central Europe (without reference to the complete omission in Lohse (1964)), Romania, and possibly southern Russia. In Poland, the species has been reported only from Pomerania (Burakowski et al. 1980, Szujecki 1976), the records probably all relating to the syntypes. Raitschev (1986) and Petrenko (1986) reported the species from Bulgaria and Ukraine, respectively. </p>
            <p> In view of the literature data outlined above, it seems quite remarkable that, according to the recent catalogues by Herman (2001) and Smetana (2004), the distribution of  X. procerus is confined to Romania, Georgia, Azerbaijan, and the Russian South European territory, although the type localities indicate a completely different distribution, and although no lectotype had been designated. Based on reliable or at least zoogeographically plausible literature records, as well as on the material examined above, the range of the species includes Romania, Bosnia-Herzogovina (first record), Albania (first record), Bulgaria, Ukraine, the Caucasus region (Russian South European territory sensu Smetana (2004), Georgia, Azerbaijan), and Turkey (first record). Considering the general distribution and the fact that  X. procerus has never been recorded again from anywhere near northwestern Poland, it would seem most likely that the indication of " Germania boreali" (Erichson 1839a) and "Stettin" (Kraatz 1857) as the type locality is the result of a misunderstanding, a confusion, and/or erroneous labels. </p>
            <p> The strikingly low number of records, despite its formidable body size, suggests that  X. procerus is extremely rare. Practically nothing is known about its habitat requirements (see also Burakowski et al. 1980). The species is readily identified by its large size and by the morphology of the aedeagus (Figs. 101–103). </p>

            <p> Comment. There has been considerable confusion regarding the identity of this species (see also remarks in the section on  X. reitteri ). The original description of  X. fortepunctatus is based on material from "les plaines qui avoisinent le Caucase" (Motschulsky 1860). Bordoni (1975a) studied a female syntype from " Georgia ", later to be designated as the lectotype (Bordoni 1999a), in the collections of the Zoological Museum Moscow and provided a description of external characters. According to this description, the type specimen is 12 mm long, with the forebody (from head to posterior margin of elytra) measuring 7 mm. These measurements are clearly outside the range of intraspecific variation of  X. fortepunctatus sensu Coiffait (1972) and Korge (1973). Based on his findings, Bordoni (1975a) synonymised  X. semirufus Reitter—which again had for a long time been confounded with  X. elegans (Olivier, 1795) or one of its junior synonymswith  X. fortepunctatus . </p>
            <p> Xantholinus fortepunctatus is widespread, with the currently known distribution extending from Poland to the Caucasus and Middle Asia (Bordoni 1975a, Smetana 2004, Ushakov 1988). As explained in the section on  X. reitteri , some previous records of  X. fortepunctatus refer to  X. reitteri . The specimens from Tunceli and Bitlis listed above represent the first records of  X. fortepunctatus from Turkey. </p>

            <p> The genus  Megalinus Mulsant &amp; Rey, 1877</p>
            <p> Xantholinus (Megalinus) Mulsant &amp; Rey, 1877: 261 . </p>

            <p> Comment.  Leptophallus was originally described as a subgenus of  Xantholinus to include  Xantholinus relucens sensu Kraatz (1857) (type species by original designation and later to be identified as  X. flavocinctus Hochhuth, 1849 ) and  X. elianae Jarrige, 1941 , and distinguished from other subgenera by the small and slen- der aedeagus without distinct spines (Coiffait 1956a). Subsequently, two additional species were attributed to the subgenus,  X. anatolicus Coiffait, 1965 from Turkey and  X. minutus Coiffait, 1962 from Algeria (Coiffait 1972). The preoccupied name  Leptophallus was replaced with Leptophiu s by Coiffait (1983). </p>
            <p> Megalinus , too, was originally described as a subgenus of  Xantholinus to include the type species (by monotypy)  Xantholinus glabratus (Gravenhorst, 1802) and separated from other subgenera by the shape of the mesosternal process (Mulsant &amp; Rey 1877). Nearly a century later, Coiffait (1972) elevated  Megalinus to the rank of genus—at that time including three species,  M. glabratus ,  M. oasis (Steel, 1948) , and  M. scutellaris (Fauvel, 1900) —stating that it was distinguished from  Xantholinus by the modified genital segments (lateral tergal sclerites IX extending clearly beyond posterior margin of the short and weakly sclerotised tergite X). </p>
            <p> Emphasising the evident modifications of the genital segment and the particular morphology of the aedeagus of  Xantholinus flavocinctus, Bordoni (1985) recognised  Leptophius as a distinct genus. Arguing that in  X. minutus and  X. anatolicus the genital segments were of the typical  Xantholinus condition, he attributed these two species to the new subgenus  Neoleptophallus . In addition, he described the genus  Lemiganus to include the fourth species previously in  Leptophius ,  X. elianae , stating that, despite obvious similarities, it was not possible to attribute it to  Megalinus owing to the less deep median incision of the labrum, the different morphology of the aedeagus (small and slender, distally with long "lobi laterali", sclerotised internal structures absent), and the somewhat different shape and chaetotaxy of the sclerites of the genital segments (tergites IX and X, sternite IX). </p>
            <p> A comparison of  Leptophius flavocinctus ,  Megalinus glabratus , and  Megalinus scutellaris revealed, however, that they are doubtlessly congeneric. True, there are differences in the morphology of the genital sements—the lateral tergal sclerites IX are somewhat shorter and slightly differently shaped in  L. flavocinctus than in  M. glabratus and M. scutellaris—, but they are clearly autapomorphic and the principle morphology is highly similar. Also, what Bordoni (1985) refers to as "lobi laterali" in  Leptophius (and  Lemiganus ) is clearly not homologous to the "lobi laterali" in  Xantholinus . The conspicuous distal sclerotised structure of the aedeagus in  Megalinus ,  Leptophius , and  Lemiganus represents an evident synapomorphy; for comparison see figure 5 (aedeagus of  Lepidophallus denticulatus , now a synonym of  Megalinus scutellaris ) in Bordoni (2004), figure 10 (  Leptophius flavocinctus ) in Bordoni (1985), and figure 16 (  Lemiganus elianae ) in Bordoni (1985). The reduced size and internal structures of the aedeagus of  L. flavocinctus must be regarded as an autapomorphy (known also from other genera of  Xantholinini ) and is no convincing argument to consider  Leptophius a distinct genus. In consequence,  Leptophius is here placed in the synonymy of the senior name  Megalinus . It seems most likely that  Lemiganus , too, will eventually have to be synonymised with  Megalinus , but so far I have not been able to examine a male of  L. elianae . </p>

            <p> Comment. This species is widespread and not uncommon especially in the eastern parts of the Mediterranean. According to Herman (2001) and Smetana (2004) it had not been reported from Israel. Due to their overall similarity and some character overlap, a separation of female  M. flavocinctus and  M. scutellaris is not easy. The puncturation of the abdomen, which is distinctly sparser (interstices much wider than diameter of punctures) in  M. flavocinctus than in  M. scutellaris proved to be the most reliable distinguishing character. </p>

            <p> Comment. The original description of  M. scutellaris is based on a single specimen from " Turquie " (Fauvel 1900); the locality is not specified. The species was later recorded also from Adana by Bordoni (1971). Both the description and the illustrations of the holotype of  Lepidophallus denticulatus (Bordoni 2004) leave no doubt that it is conspecific with  M. scutellaris , a conclusion confirmed by an examination of the holotype of  L. denticulatus , which was collected in Antalya province.  Lepidophallus denticulatus is consequently a junior synonym of  M. scutellaris . </p>
            <p>The distribution of this species is apparently confined to southern Anatolia and adjacent islands (Fig. 108). The specimens from Rhodos represent the first records from Greece.</p>
