Notes: Like the previous species of the genus Lamprochernes, L. nodosus was reidentified based on new characters (Christophoryová et al. 2023). The species is much rarer, but it also inhabits compost heaps (KaňuchovÁ et al. 2015; Christophoryová et al. 2023) and bird nests (Krištofík et al. 1996). Only one new sampling site of the species was added during the present research, it was recorded in the Malaise trap in Rača.
