Crossocerus (Crossocerus) elongatulus (VANDER LINDEN, 1829)

*Buryat Republic. 1  East Sajan, Mondy, 30 km NW

Distribution: Russia: European Part, Urals, Western and Eastern Siberia, Far East. – Europe, North Africa, Azerbaijan, Turkey, Iran, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Japan, North and South America.

Remark: The differentiation between the subspecies C. elongatulus (s. str.) and C. elongatulus annulatus LEPELETIER & BRULLÉ, 1835 as made by BELOKOBYLSKIJ & LELEJ (2017) seems doubtful. The common occurrence of two subspecies in a wide range of distribution contradicts the concept of subspecies. Here is a need of clearing the taxonomy and the distribution data. So we don’t follow this opinion.
