Quedius (Raphirus) pineti BRISOUT DE BARNEVILLE, 1866

Quedius nevesi 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 / ex coll. Scheerpeltz / Holotypus Quedius nevesi Scheerpeltz, rev. V. Assing 2017 / Quedius pineti Brisout, 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.
