Remarks. Omalium allardi is a widespread species in the western Palaearctic region (Schülke & Smetana 2015), introduced in New Zealand (Klimaszewski et al. 1996). The record from Siberia (Schülke & Smetana 2015) is erroneous. It was possibly based on misidentifications provided by Shavrin (2001, 2010). Specimens from Shelekhov (Shavrin 2001) were misidentified and belong to O. septentrionis (see above), and specimens from Olkhon Island to O. curtipenne (see below), respectively.
