Remarks. The species is widely distributed in the European part of the Palaearctic Region ( Gildenkov 2015, 2019a; Schülke & Smetana, 2015). For the Asian part of the Palaearctic Region, it is reliably known from Eastern Siberia, the Far East, Turkey, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan ( Gildenkov 2015). The indications for the regions of China, Oriental Region, and TropicalAfrica obviously refer ( Gildenkov 2015) to Carpelimus ( Troginus) atomus (Saulcy, 1864) View in CoL . It was known from mainland Greece ( Gildenkov 2015). It was unknown from Crete ( Assing 2019) and Rhodes ( Assing, 2013), and indicated here for the first time from these islands of Greece.
