Abstract

A new species of Halticini, Labops kerzhneri sp. n., is described from Eastern Siberia (upper and middle sources of the Pilka River, a right tributary of the Lena River). The new species is very similar to the Euro-Siberian species L. salhbergi Fall. but clearly distinguished by the narrow stripe along outer margin of the corium, the wide pale ring on the tibia, and the structure of the parameres.
