Abstract
A taxonomic and nomenclatural analysis of Agrilus suvorovi Obenberger, 1935 is presented. The literature is reviewed and the taxonomic status of all synonyms is discussed. Agrilus vernadskii Obenberger, 1927 is considered the junior subjective synonym of A. viridis (Linné, 1758) with no relation to A. suvorovi. Agrilus brussae Obenberger, 1956 and A. populneus Schaefer, 1946 are placed in synonymy of A. suvorovi and their lectotypes are designated.References
