Scheloribates (Scheloribates) barbatulus Mihelčič, 1956 View in CoL *

Material – New record for Turkey. Two specimens in Çamkonak Forest Processing Area, Daday forest, N 41° 23′ 54.24′′, E 33° 13′ 13.73′′, alt. = 1147 m, 30 May 2018, tree bark of P. nigra . Global distribution – Palaearctic GoogleMaps .

Ecology – Forest soils.

Remarks – Although the species is known not to be adapted to arboricolar habitats ( Perez-Iňigo 1993) we found them on bark of the pine tree. Other representative of genus Scheloribates [ S. latipes (C.L. Koch, 1841) ] has been reported in minor numbers on twigs of spruce and beech trees ( Murvanidze and Mumladze 2014).
