COUNTRY UNKNOWN • 1 ♂; MNHN EY22454.  Distribution  
Nearctic and palearctic.  Comments  
 CT found one slide preparation (prép. no. 7403/221) containing only the male genitalia (MNHN EY22454) that Dessart made in 1974. The rest of the specimen could not be located. Though this specimen is not a type, we felt it was a valuable specimen to image since there are no photographs of Dendrocerus serricornis to date. Dessart (1972c) provides illustrations of the male genitalia, which correspond well with the genitalia imaged.
