Larvae of Bembidiini: subgenera Synechostictus and Pseudolimnaeum of the genus Bembidion and their taxonomic position (Coleoptera: Carabidae)

V.V. Grebennikov

Abstract. The larvae of five species of the subgenera Synechostictus (B. ruficorne Sturm, B. nordmanni Chaud., B. millerianum Heyd., B. atroviolaceum Dufour, all instars) and Pseudolimnaeum (B. lederi Rtt., first and second instars) are described. The distinguishing features of immature stages of Synechostictus and Pseudolimnaeum are given. Based on the remarkable larval morphology, these taxa should be separated within the tribe Bembidiini.
