Lateral aspect of aedeagus as in Fig. 44.
Female. Protarsomeres 1–4 narrow. Apical margin of abdominal tergite VIII truncate (Fig. 60). Apical margin of abdominal sternite VIII widely rounded (Fig. 61). Genital segment as in Fig. 62.
Comparative notes. Regarding the general shape of the body and the aedeagus, and the presence of several large subtriangular teeth in the internal sac of the aedeagus, A. tectum is similar to the Siberian A. frigidum, from which it can be distinguished by finer punctation of the pronotum, weakly pronounced anterior angles of the pronotum, and narrower apical portions of the parameres.
Distribution. Anthobium tectum is widely distributed in the Palaearctic Region (Fig. 81), from the British Isles across Europe eastwards to Kamchatka Peninsula and Maritime Province of the Russian Far East.
Natural history. Based on published and new data, the specimens of A. tectum were collected at elevations from 10 to 2400 m a.s.l. The species inhabits deciduous forests with Betula, Populus, Alnus, Duschekia, etc., coniferous forests with Pinus, Abies, Picea, Larix, mixed forests, and unforested and disturbed habitats. Specimens of A. tectum can be collected in various mushrooms (more common in rotten and fresh fungi), in litter and mosses, compost, rotten hay and other organic remains, carrion, on sap flows of wounded trees, excrements (cows, dog, bear, human, etc.), occasionally in rotting wood, from under bark, etc. The beetles were observed during the period from March to November, with the greatest number of specimens captured during late summer and autumn.
Remarks. Anthobium tectum is one of the common species of the genus in the Palaearctic Region. Staphylinus tectus, the type species of the genus Deliphrum, was originally described from “ Suecia ”. This species was redescribed numerous times and included to the European keys (see above), and many times was recorded from the Palaearctic Region, especially from Europe (e.g. Horion 1963, Herman 2001). Gravenhorst (1806) described Omalium laeve Gravenhorst, 1806 from “Borussia”. Later, C. Sahlberg (1830) synonymized this name with O. tectum. J. Sahlberg (1876) proposed D. tectum var. picipennis J. Sahlberg, 1876 without description and any additional data. This is an unavailable name, and data about the type specimen was provided by Silfverberg (1988): “ Deliphrum tectum var. Holotype from USSR (Murmansk obl.:) Soukelo (error, should be Porjeguba), J. Sahlb., J.Sahlb. ded., 1057”. Anthobium tectum was recorded from late-glacial subfossils in the Great Britain (Pearson 1962).
In the present study, A. tectum is reported from several Russian administrative regions for the first time: Nenets, Khanty-Mansy, Yamalo-Nenets and Jewish autonomous regions, Tver, Sverdlovsk, Chelyabinsk, Tyumen, Novosibirsk, Chita and Amur area, Altai, Evenkia, Tuva, and Khabarovsk Territory.
