Comment: Zyras bartolozzii was described from a unique male collected in “ Malaysia, Pahang, Genting Sempah” ( PACE 2003). The original description of Z. alboterminalis is based on a male holotype and three paratypes (one male and two females) from Sabah (Borneo) ( PACE 2008). According to the illustrations provided by PACE (2003, 2008), the – very distinctive! – median lobe of the aedeagus of the type material of both names is identical. Moreover, the descriptions do not mention any external differences suggesting that Z. bartolozzii and Z. alboterminalis should represent distinct species. Consequently, the junior name Z. alboterminalis is placed in synonymy with Z. bartolozzii .
The coloration of the antennae, one of the (few) characters mentioned in the original descriptions in PACE (2003, 2008) as distinguishing this species from other species of Zyras sensu strictu, is rather variable: the coloration of antennomeres I–X ranges from yellowish-red to blackish-brown. Antennomere XI, however, appears to be constantly yellowish.
Zyras bartolozzii is currently known from Borneo and Peninsular Malaysia, but most likely more widespread in the Oriental region. The above material represents the first record from Indonesia.
