Cassolus fukiensis Balthasar, 1960: 90 View in CoL , Fig. 1.

The holotype is deposited in NMPC (ex coll. V. Balthasar):

HOLOTYPE (J): ‘Kuatun (2300m) 27,40n.Br. / 117,40ö.L. J. Klapperich / 29.4. 1938 (Fukien) [p, violet label] // Cassolus / fukiensis / n.sp. Balth. [hw] / Holotypus [p, ochreous label] // HOLOTYPUS / Cassolus / fukiensis / Balthasar, 1960 / S. Tarasov det. 2010 [p, red label]’.

Current status. Valid species.

Remark. Tribal position of the genus Cassolus Sharp, 1875 is somewhat unclear. HANSKI & CAMBEFORT (1991) listed this genus within Onthophagini , while recent study of TARASOV & KEITH (2011) supported tentative placement of Cassolus within Deltochilini (= Canthonini).
