Ryvkin leg. (AR). Remarks Terra typica: ‘London; Suffolk’; for aemulus : ‘Brandenburg’. The species is known from C & N Europe and W Siberia (Tichomirova 1973). Hochhuth (1872) reported it (as aemulus Gyllh. <sic!>) for the Kiev Government (‘Ziemlich selten’); J. Sahlberg cited it for N Karelia (1876: ‘Nordligast har jag funnit den vid Soukelo i Ryska Lappmarken (66°40’)’), ‘Peninsula Kola, Petschora’ (1899); Jakobson (1909) summarized records for ‘Arkhangelsk Government (Lapponia, Pechora), <…> Olonets Government, St.-Petersburg Government, Kiev Government’. Puthz (Pisanenko & Puthz 1991) mentioned that ‘Aus der europäischen Sowjetunion war diese Art Horion 1963 unbekannt’, but, besides the records named above, Puthz (1971a) himself cited an additional find for the Leningrad Area (‘Viipuri’=Vyborg); Tichomirova (1982) recorded the species for the Moscow Area. The sketchy figure of an aedeagus provided by Bordoni (2004) for S. nitens from Italy (‘ Veneto: Verona’) seems to belong to a specimen of another species. Unfortunately the specimen which has been figured by Bordoni is not found in Museo Civico di Storia Naturale, Verona (A. Zanetti pers. comm.); thus, the Italian records of the species require a confirmation. The new material proves that the species is widely distributed in W & C Siberia. The E Siberian records by Poppius (1909a: ‘An der mittleren Lena weit verbreitet, aber einzeln. <...> Olekminsk, Ytyk-haja, Önkyr-yrjä, Ust-Aldan, zwischen Ust-Aldan und Batylym, Shigansk’) have been confirmed by neither subsequent writers nor the new material. The aforecited material from W Evenkia seems to provide the easternmost verified records of the species until now. The shape of the aedeagus of the male from Evenkia corresponds well to that of the specimen from European Russia (see Fig. 1 A–D). : Published as part of Ryvkin, Alexandr B., 2012, New species and records of Stenus (Nestus) of the canaliculatus group, with the erection of a new species group (Insecta: Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Steninae), pp. 1-62 in European Journal of Taxonomy 13 on pages 11-12, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2012.13, http://zenodo.org/record/3857775 : {"references": ["Stephens J.
