62. EXAPION FUSCIROSTRE (FABRICIUS, 1775) *
Examined material: Recorded from one locality: Bagrationovsk district, 3 km S the railway station “ 1312 km ”, 54°55´63´´N 20°22´27´´E, 27.VI.2010 (8 exx, sweeping at the dry edge of mixed forest, on the bushes of Sarothamnus (Cytisus) scoparius , leg. V. Alekseev) .
Comments: The species is distributed throughout Poland ( Wanat & Mokrzycki 2005) and also is known from southern Sweden and Denmark ( Silfverberg, 2004); expected for western Belarus ( Alexandrovitch et al. 1996). On the territory of the former East Prussia, it has been reported from the present-day northern Poland only ( Bercio & Folwaczny 1979). This species is closely associated with its host plant - Scotch broom and according to the distribution area of this native for north-western Europe plant the beetle attains the northern-eastern limit of main distribution area in the Kaliningrad region. We suppose the Kaliningrad region is the unique site in the whole Russia, which this apionid can inhabit.
