Tachyusa ferialis Erichson, 1839: 71 View in CoL .
Tachyusa bicolor Mulsant & Rey, 1875: 407 (synonym confirmed).
Tachyusa (Caliusa) ferialis: Mulsant & Rey, 1875: 410 View in CoL ; Ganglbauer, 1895: 248; Fenyes, 1920: 173; Bernhauer & Scheerpeltz, 1926: 586.
Type material. Tachyusa ferialis Erichson. Lectotype (here designated): ♂: Hist.Coll. ( Coleoptera ) Nr. 5331, Tachyusa ferialis Erichson, Sardin., Géné (ZMHB) . Paralectotypes: 2♂♂ and ♀: same data as the lectotype ( ZMHB).
Tachyusa bicolor Mulsant & Rey. Lectotype (here designated): ♂: Provence, le Languedoc, le Roussillon etc. ( MHNL); Paralectotypes: 2♂♂ and 2♀♀: same data as the lectotype ( MHNL).
Taxonomic notes. An examination of the types, particularly the genitalia, revealed that Tachyusa bicolor is without doubt conspecific with T. ferialis and consequently a junior synonym of the latter.

Antennae long, clearly increasing in width apically, antennomeres 2 and 3 subequal in length, antennomeres 4–8 longer than wide, antennomeres 9–10 quadrate, antennomere 11 nearly conical.
Pronotum quadrate, lateral sides gradually narrowed in straight line to obtuse hind angles; before base with small and shallow transverse impression; surface without microsculpture; puncturation fine, moderately scattered and weakly asperate; pubescence at midline directed posteriorly in apical half and anteriorly in basal half.
Elytra subquadrate, at suture slightly shorter than pronotal length at midline; surface lacking microsculpture; puncturation fine, moderately dense and weakly asperate.
Abdomen parallelsided, bases of tergites 3–5 each with deep transverse impression, impressions with 7–8 longitudinal ridges, tergal puncturation fine and scattered, punctures very small and scarcely visible, surface without microsculpture.
