    Laccobius Erichson 1837

    Genus Laccobius Erichson, 1837 Laccobius Erichson, 1837: 202. Five species of this genus were previously recorded from Taiwan (Przewoźny 2020). One additional undescribed species has been found in the material under study, and one species (L. philipinus) is removed from Taiwanese fauna. Taiwanese species inhabit aquatic habitats, including pools, muddy shores of rivers or stream and wet rocks.Published as part of Liu, Hsing-Che & Fikáček, Martin, 2021, Review of the Taiwanese Laccobius Erichson, 1837 (Coleoptera: Hydrophilidae) with description of a new species, pp. 587-599 in Zootaxa 4963 (3) on page 588, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4963.3.11, http://zenodo.org/record/470427

    Figs 12A–C, F–I with Figs 2N–S). External characters support this assignment: dorsal setae are simple and cut-off apically (compare Fig. 12K with Fig. 2d), elytra lack longitudinal striae except for sutural stria, and pronotum and elytra are yellowish in color. The specimens above seem to stand close to the Argentinian species C. argentina Miller, 1974 and C. hermani Miller, 1974 of the C. atra group defined by MILLER (1974). When compared with the genitalia drawings and descriptions provided by MILLER (1974) it seems that the specimens examined here represent an undescribed species. We are however leaving it undescribed, as it is likely introduced and a more detailed comparison with the American species would be necessary to diagnose the species properly. The presence of the species which is clearly an element of Neotropical fauna in Saudi Arabia is very unexpected. The first author discussed the problem with both collectors (J. Bezděk and D. Král) and with the person whoPublished as part of Fikáček, Martin & Liu, Hsing-Che, 2019, A review of Thysanarthria with description of seven new species and comments on its relationship to Chaetarthria (Hydrophilidae: Chaetarthriini), pp. 229-252 in Acta Entomologica Musei Nationalis Pragae 59 (1) on page 251, DOI: 10.2478/aemnp-2019-0020, http://zenodo.org/record/448891

    Laccobius (Microlaccobius) fragilis Nakane, 1966 Ḏ弱flǿ牙ḃ (Fig. 18) Laccobius (Microlaccobius) fragilis Nakane, 1966: 57. Laccobius (Microlaccobius) fragilis: Gentili (2003: 422) (records from Taiwan). Material examined. No specimens were examined. Published record: Taitung (Gentili 2003). Distribution. China (Gansu, Liaoning, Shaanxi), Japan (Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu), Korea, Russia,? Taiwan (Gentili 2003; Nakajima et al. 2020; Przewoźny 2020). Comments. The first and so far the only record of this species from Taiwan is a male from Taitung (southern Taiwan) mentioned by Gentili (2003). This species is very similar to L. formosus, and can be differentiated by the narrower median lobe of the aedeagus (Fig. 18). We did not find any specimens of L. fragilis in this study, although we also examined specimens from Taitung. The occurrence of L. fragilis in Taiwan hence needs to be reconfirmed. However, more species usually co-occur at localities sampled by us in Taiwan and we hence cannot exclude that L. fragilis may be rare and hence unrecorded by us. Therefore, we still maintain L. fragilis as a member of Taiwanese fauna.Published as part of Liu, Hsing-Che & Fikáček, Martin, 2021, Review of the Taiwanese Laccobius Erichson, 1837 (Coleoptera: Hydrophilidae) with description of a new species, pp. 587-599 in Zootaxa 4963 (3) on page 590, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4963.3.11, http://zenodo.org/record/470427
