Abstract

Data on 17 species from seven families of the Coleoptera from the south of Primorskii Territory are provided. Six species, Pterostichus lutschniki (Carabidae), Silvanolomus brevis (Silvanidae), Tritoma gangwonensis (Erotylidae), Serangium contortum (Coccinellidae), Chilopeltis laevipennis (Salpingidae), Xanthalia serrifera (Tenebrionidae), and genus Caenocryptorrhynchus Morimoto (Curculionidae), with a new species Caenocryptorrhynchus zherichini Korotyaev, sp. n., are recorded for the Russian fauna for the first time. New data are provided for eight rare or little-known species of the Russian fauna: Anchomenus leucopus, Euplynes batesi, Chlaenius suvorovi (all Carabidae), Sumnius nigrofuscus (Coccinellidae), Salpingoides thoracicus, Salpingus depressifrons, Lissodema plagiatum (all Salpingidae), and Shirahoshizo rufescens (Curculionidae). Differential diagnoses or keys are provided for the species new to the Russian fauna.
