Erroneous publication date for two species is corrected regarding the date of their first description: Dolichurus corniculus (Spinola, 1807) and Nysson decemmaculatus (Spinola, 1807). Horological data, phenology, and geographical distribution for all listed species are also presented. Comments on the interspecific variation in certain morphological characters for six species are given.
