Material examined

Holotype CHINA • ♂; “НiЯ (пески), 23.I.90, Пѣвцов” [Xinjang, Niya ruins , sands , 38°01′17″, 82°44′15.4″]; 23 Jan. 1890; M.V. Pevtsov leg.; ZIN.

Notes

This species was originally described from a single specimen. The name ‘ primaeveris ’ is incorrectly written as “ primaeverris ” in both editions of the catalogue of Palaearctic Coleoptera ( Löbl et al. 2008; Iwan et al. 2020). Semenov Tjan-Shansky used the original epithet ‘ primae -veris ’.
