Genus Contacyphon View in CoL View at ENA de Gozis

The almost globally distributed very diverse genus is poorly represented in Australia. The few known species belong to the erythrinus -subgroup of the coarctatus -group ( Zwick 2013b). One new species with different relations and one alien species are added here: a population of the European C. putonii Brisout was discovered in SW Australia!
