Philoctetes mongolicus (du Buysson, 1901), status revived – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile

Distribution
China (Shanxi). Widely distributed from Mongolia to Central Asia and southern Russia to Volga (Trautmann 1927[6]).
Remarks
Philoctetes mongolicus was often erroneously considered belonging to the genus Elampus (= Notozus) due to its elongated metanotal projection. However, the metanotal projection is also present in various Philoctetes species (e.g.: Philoctetes putoni (du Buysson)). Kimsey and Bohart (1991)[5] placed Philoctetes mongolicus under Philoctetes horvathi, even if Tsuneki and Linsenmaier considered it as a valid species. Type examination has confirmed that Philoctetes mongolicus is indeed a valid species.
