Remarks. Morphodactyla coreica is mostly confused with Dolichus coreicus Jedlička, 1936 (a synonym of Dolichus davidis ( Fairmaire, 1889) , proposed by Lindroth (1956) but rejected by Nemoto (1990)) in several catalogues recently (Hovorak, 2017; Lorenz, 2005, 1998; Hovorak & Sciaky, 2003). However, the former has been wrongly placed in genus Calathus (incertae sedis), while in fact it belongs in the genus Morphodactyla (omitted in Hovorak & Sciaky 2003). The latter has been wrongly placed in genus Morphodactyla , while it in fact belongs in the genus Dolichus .
