Quedius (Raphirus) pineti View in CoL BRISOUT DE BARNEVILLE, 1866

Quedius nevesi View in CoL SCHEERPELTZ, 1951: 130 ff.; synonymy confirmed.

T y p e m a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d: Holotype ♂: " Pe Ramiro, Agrela, 29.VII.1940. Portugal / 21 / Typus Quedius Nevesi O. Scheerpeltz View in CoL / ex coll. Scheerpeltz / Holotypus Quedius nevesi View in CoL Scheerpeltz, rev. V. Assing 2017 / Quedius pineti Brisout View in CoL , det. V. Assing 2017" ( NHMW).

C o m m e n t: The original description of Q. nevesi is based on a unique holotype from "Agrela (Prov. Douro, Nord-Portugal)" ( SCHEERPELTZ 1951). The name was synonymized with Q. pineti , one of the most common Quedius species of the Iberian Peninsula, by COIFFAIT (1963). An examination of this holotype revealed that the synonymy is correct.
