Notes

The Palaearctic Thinophilus quadrimaculatus was once reported from DR Congo by Vanschuytbroeck (1951). One male and one female from this country were found in the RMCA collection under the label “ Thinophilus quadrimaculatus , det. Vanschuytbroeck”; the male belongs to Thinophilus splendidus , and the female belongs to Pelastoneurus sp. The species must be excluded from the Afrotropical fauna.
