Xyleborinus schaufussi (Blandford) View in CoL
Xyleborus schaufussi Blandford, 1894: 117 View in CoL .

Xyleborus kraunhiae Niisima, 1910: 14 View in CoL . syn. n.
Taxonomy: Type specimens of Xyleborus kraunhiae View in CoL could not be located in the NIAES collection so our observations were based on Niisima’s description. The morphology of the species described by Niisima is unambiguously that of Xyleborinus schaufussi View in CoL except the size is given as 2.20 mm. This is smaller than the size of other specimens (NMNH, MSUC, RAB), which range between 2.30¯2.50 mm, and smaller than that reported for X. schaufussi View in CoL of 2.40¯3.00 mm by Niisima (1910). Despite this slight size discrepancy, we are confident that these two species are the same and Xyleborus kraunhiae View in CoL is here placed in synonymy.
