C o m m e n t: Philonthus flavocinctus was originally described from "Indes orientalis" (probably Myanmar) and subsequently recorded from numerous localities in the Oriental region and from the south of the East Palaearctic, as well as from Sudan and from Réunion in the Afrotropical region ( HROMÁDKA 2012, SMETANA 2004). This species was previously unknown from Israel.
