P.N. Petrov & A.G. Kirejtshuk

Abstract. A diagnosis of Haliplus zacharenkoi Gramma in Gramma & Prisny, 1973 is given. The specimen labelled as holotype by the authors was collected in a locality different from that mentioned in the original description. Therefore, the lectotype is designated and the paralectotypes examined are listed. The ecology and phenology of the species are discussed, its distribution is reviewed.
