Notes.

Pesarini (1975) overlooked P. viridimaculatus Pic, 1919 while describing P. scapularis , and compared his new species with Polydrusus (Poecilodrusus) elegans Reitter, 1887 , P. (Poecilodrusus) viridicinctus Gyllenhal, 1834 , and P. (Eurodrusus) cervinus (Linnaeus, 1758) , placing it in the P. cervinus species-group. The paratype of Polydrusus scapularis in the ZIN collection was examined. External morphology and the structure of aedeagus and spermatheca of Polydrusus scapularis give evidence that it is a junior synonym of P. viridimaculatus .
