Genus: Stenus
Name
Stenus atratulus Erichson, 1839 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
Chorology
The West Palaearctic Stenus atratulus is widely distributed throughout Europe, the Mediterranean including the Maghreb countries Algeria and Tunesia, and Turkey eastwards to Iran, where it is most abundant in the northwest (Fig. 18), from where it dispersed across the South Caspian mountains as far east as the Koppeh Dag at about 58°E in North Khorasan, the easternmost confirmed locality of the species. Interestingly, Stenus atratulus was not found in the Zagros Mountains south of Hamedan Province, but it occurs in the dryer Qohrud Range, where we recorded it at Shir Kuh and in the mountains of Kerman (Fig. 18).
Biogeographical characterization
Due to its Mediterranean distribution centre, we classify Stenus atratulus as a Holomediterranean species following Puthz (2012a[1]: 78).
