61. NELASIORHYNCHITES OLIVACEUS (GYLLENHAL, 1833) *

Examined material: Recorded once: Zelenogradsk district, 3 km N Grachevka, 54°91´17´´N 20°13´33.7´´E, 6.VI.2010 (1 ex., sweeping at the edge of the mixed forest, young oaks, leg. V. Alekseev) .

Comments: According to Silfveberg (2004), the species is mentioned for Sweden and Denmark and unknown for the Eastern Baltic territories. It is also known from Poland ( Wanat & Mokrzycki 2005). The catalogue of Bercio & Folwaczny (1979) and also the last list of the leaf-rolling weevils ( Alekseev 2005) content no information about this taxon. Therefore it is registered in the Kaliningrad region and in the whole Eastern Baltic region (at the northern border of its distribution range) for the first time. Legalov (2006) mentioned this species from the north-western and central parts of European Russia and, on the basis of this data, its occurrence and future finding in Lithuania and Latvia could be supposed.
