Remarks .

Saprinus lindrothi is conspecific with S. prasinus Erichson, 1834, agreeing with the description of S. prasinus as published by Kryzhanovskij and Reichardt (1976) and sharing all significant characters. We compared the type specimen of S. lindrothi to verified specimens of S. prasinus from Israel. We found no other specimens of S. lindrothi among Australopacific material, and therefore conclude that the species has been mislabeled and is not treated in full detail in this study.
