Remarks
The species is variable in both external characters and, to a lesser extent, in the shape of the aedeagus. Terra typica: ‘Suecia’ [= Sweden]. Widespread in the Holarctic. In an earlier article devoted to the Caucasian stenine fauna, I summarized the range as follows: ‘Palearctic and Alaska <…>, Michigan <…>, but missing evidently in subtropics and in the southernmost districts of the Pontic biogeographical province (Turkestanian and Kurdian). Unknown to me also from the Crimean, Derbentian, Caucasian, Lenkoranian districts. The records nearest to the Caucasus are in the Rostov Area (Nedvigovka, Azhinov, Manychskaya, Yerokhin, Podtyolkovo, Liventsovka). One cannot deny a possibility of finding it in Ciscaucasia’ (Ryvkin 1990; the biogeographical units follow those of Razumovskiy 1980). In this excerpt I missed the important record from NE Turkey: ‘Benliahmed südwestl. Kars’ (Korge 1971); though the locality does not belong to the Caucasus in a strict sense, it lies right at the border between the Caucasian and Kurdian biogeographical districts. This species is missing in the lists for the NW Caucasus (Solodovnikov 1998) and the Samara Area (Goreslavets et al. 2002), but my restudy of the collections of the named authors makes it possible to report S. canaliculatus for both the regions (see above: the Material section).
Both records of S. canaliculatus in Shavrin (1998) (for “Alar', Irkutsk Area”, and “Bol'shoye Alginskoye Lake, Buryatia”) are to be referred to S. incrassatus Erichson, 1839 (I have seen the material in Shavrin’s collection). Among the material listed under the name ‘ canaliculatus ’ by Shavrin & Puthz (2007), at least the specimen from ‘Barun-Torej, Myrgen’, Chita Area should be referred to the new species S. canalis sp. nov. described below; some other Transbaikalian specimens unknown to me may also prove to belong to this new species. In that article, all the records marked as relating to the material deposited in ‘coll. A.Shavrin’ and ‘Irkutsk State University’, except ‘Sarma’, ‘Shelekhov’, and ‘Selenga delta’ (the latter locality, based on my identifications, has been published by Dubeshko (1984)), should be verified because the respective specimens were not present in the complete collection that Dr. Shavrin has sent me for restudy.
Ryabukhin (1999), based on my identifications in the IBPM collection, listed three localities from Kamchatka.
Campbell & Davies (1991) reported this species for Alaska and all the provinces of Canada, excluding Saskatchewan, Labrador, and Prince Edward Island, without citing material. The American specimens I know from the northernmost localities are very similar to those from NE Asia; but the material from the USA main territory as well as from S Canada demonstrates definite differences both in body proportions (e.g. the head somewhat more wide) and in the shape of the male genitalia; I believe the variability mentioned above requires further analysis based on more representative sampling.
S. congener Maeklin, 1853, according to the original description, was described for a single specimen captured on Kadjak Island (‘In insula Kadjak a D.Holmberg semel captus’). No specimens from the Kenai Peninsula were mentioned in Maeklin’s text; these two localities were distinguished well by both Mäklin and Mannerheim (a good map was provided in Mannerheim 1853, which incorporated Maeklin’s descriptions); therefore, assumptions by Silfverberg (1988) and Puthz (2001) concerning the type status of Kenai specimens in different museums seem to be as premature as unfounded (‘semel captus’<!> means that the type series cannot be distributed widely over all the main European museums). Casey (1884), L. Benick (1921b), and Scheerpeltz (1933) treated S. congener as a species propria; nevertheless, Fauvel (1869, 1873, 1889), Rey (1884), Bernhauer & Shubert (1911), and others regarded this name as a synonym of S. canaliculatus. I think it important that Fauvel (1889), when citing the synonymy, mentioned Maeklin’s type as known to him and cited the terra typica as ‘Kadjak’. Consequently, the synonymy of congener and canaliculatus should be regarded as hypothetical before a reliable type specimen can be found.
