An annotated catalogue of the Meloidae of Libya is presented, including 64 species belonging to 17 genera (5 Lyttini, 1 Cerocomini, 5 Mylabrini, 1 Meloini, 5 Nemognathini). This fauna includes species representative of both the Mediterranean and Saharan subregions, two of the richest biogeographic areas in the World as concerns the Meloidae genus diversity. Three new Mylabrini are described; Hycleus ringenbachi n. sp., Mylabris (Mylabris) poggii n. sp., Mylabris (Zitunabris) cyrenaica n. sp. Also, Alosimus mendax (Fairmaire 1876) is resurrected as a distinct species. Sixteen species were unrecorded from Libya. Three previously cited species are excluded from the Libyan fauna and the doubtful presence of 5 others is discussed. Preliminary biogeographical remarks are carried out

Abstract

An annotated catalogue of the Meloidae of Libya is presented, including 64 species belonging to 17 genera (5 Lyttini, 1 Cerocomini, 5 Mylabrini, 1 Meloini, 5 Nemognathini). This fauna includes species representative of both the Mediterranean and Saharan subregions, two of the richest biogeographic areas in the World as concerns the Meloidae genus diversity. Three new Mylabrini are described; Hycleus ringenbachi n. sp., Mylabris (Mylabris) poggii n. sp., Mylabris (Zitunabris) cyrenaica n. sp. Also, Alosimus mendax (Fairmaire 1876) is resurrected as a distinct species. Sixteen species were unrecorded from Libya. Three previously cited species are excluded from the Libyan fauna and the doubtful presence of 5 others is discussed. Preliminary biogeographical remarks are carried out

Un catalogue des Meloidae de Libye mis à jour est présenté. Celui-ci comprend des données faunistiques et des notes taxonomiques. Il inclut 64 espèces de 17 genres (5 Lyttini, 1 Cerocomini, 5 Mylabrini, 1 Meloini, 5 Nemognathini). Il s’agit d’un peuplement mixte avec un ensemble d’espèces surtout méditerranéennes et sahariennes. Trois nouvelles espèces sont décrites (Hycleus ringenbachi n. sp. de Tripolitaine, Mylabris (Mylabris) poggii n. sp. et Mylabris (Zitunabris) cyrenaica n. sp.), toutes deux de Cyrénaïque). Alosimus mendax (Fairmaire, 1876) est considéré à nouveau comme une espèce valide. Parmi les espèces traitées, 16 sont citées pou la première fois de Libye, 3 déjà signalées sont exclues de la faune de ce pays, et 5 sont considérées douteuses. Des annotations biogéographiques préliminaires sont aussi presentées.
