Alphitobius limbalis Fairmaire, 1901 Fig. 17
Type specimens examined.
Without any data, 1 female “cotype” NHMB (Gebien collection).
Remarks.
It seems doubtful to the authors, if the above listed female (body length 6 mm) without any data is really a type specimen. Other material of this taxon is unknown to the authors. The species is said to be similar to Alphitobius luctuosus (synonym of Alphitobius crenatus (Klug, 1833) ( Fairmaire 1901), but is characterised by larger body size (6 mm), rounder pronotum and larger punctures in elytral striae.
Type locality.
“Bélumbé”.
Distribution.
Madagascar.
