Ceratocombus (Ceratocombus) coleoptratus (Zetterstedt, 1819) (Ceratocombidae) European Turkey. Heiss & Péricart (2007, with?). General distribution. Eurosiberian species, distribued from Ireland and Great Britain to Mongolia and Russian Far East, also in Bulgaria, Greece, Israel, and Syria (Reichling & Gerend 1994, Kerzhner 1995b, Lukashuk 1997, Protić 1998, Simov & Josifov 2004, Heiss & Péricart 2007, Spuņģis 2008, Golub & Vinokurov 2009). Comment. Reported by Heiss & Péricart (2007) as follows: ‘? TURQUIE D’EUROPE. Belgrader Wald, VII 1954, Schubert leg.> coll. Eckerlein, MHNG (spécimen douteux [= doubtful specimen])’. The locality Belgrader Wald [= Belgrad Forest, Belgrad Ormanı] is situated at Bahçeköy on the northern margin of İstanbul. As Heiss & Péricart (2007) themselves expressed doubts about the specimen, occurrence of C. coleoptratus in Turkey needs further confirmation. Identification. Heiss & Péricart (2007).
