Please see picture attached. The specimen is ca. 13 mm long. Location data is: "Kazakhstan, S., Ugamskij Mtr., Kaskasu r., 1600 m alt.".
Can anybody identify the species or provide an identification key in English or German?
Many thanks for your help!
Best,
Fabian
Hello Fabian,
This won't be easy : at least 40 Cymindis species there, and I have no key... looks a bit like C. rufipes but there are certainly several species that look alike.
Good luck !
Almost certainly Cymindis (Paracymindis) fedtschenkoi Tschit. 1896
Many thanks for your fast answers - especially to Dr. Makarov. Is there any key existing that is not in russian language?
Can any one provide me original description of Cymindis laevistriata Lucas, 1846. or any identifying characters or related data to C. laevistriata Lucas, 1846 ???
The description was published in the "Exploration scientifique de l'Algérie pendant les années 1840, 1841, 1842". Vol. 2, p. 10.
