Xyleborinus attenuatus (Blandford) View in CoL

Xyleborus attenuatus Blandford, 1894: 114 View in CoL .

Xyleborinus attenuatus (Blandford) View in CoL : Beaver & Liu, 2010: 30.

Xyleborus alni Niisima, 1909: 160 View in CoL . Synonymy: Knížek, 2011: 246.

Xyleborus canus Niisima, 1909: 161 View in CoL . syn. n.

Taxonomy: The type specimen of X. canus View in CoL collected in Sapporo could not be located in Niisima’s collection (NIAES). However, three non-type specimens from [Mt.] “Moiwa” [Sapporo] identified as X. canus View in CoL by Niisima were examined (NIAES) and were directly compared with specimens of X. attenuatus View in CoL (MSUC, NMNH) and found to be conspecific. Xyleborus canus View in CoL is here placed in synonymy.
