Distribution and bionomics. Euboeus kopetzi was recently described from Antalya Province ( Nabozhenko & Grimm 2019) based on a single male specimen. We additionally collected this species in very old Pinus brutia forests in Antalya ( Fig. 7D View FIGURE 7 ) and Mersin provinces. Adult beetles were active from 20:30 to at least 21:20 and climbed the trunks to a height of 2 m. The registered fruticose host lichens are Parmelina pastillifera (Harm.) Hale in both localities ( Fig. 6D View FIGURE 6 ) and Pseudevernia furfuraceae in Ibradı ( Fig. 6E View FIGURE 6 ) ( Parmeliaceae ).
