Notes on the distribution and habitat of Ochthebius lobicollis Rey, 1885, a poorly known north-western Mediterranean coastal species (Coleoptera: Hydraenidae). Fragmenta Entomologica. 2019; 51(1):51-4.

The species is known only from coastal habitats through the Gulf of Lion and the Ligurian and Balearic seas, typically living in rockpools of different salinity or small trickles or freshwater runoffs. Genetic data of the cytochrome oxidase 1 gene from Iberian, Menorcan and Sardinian specimens shows less than 1% divergence, suggesting lack of isolation between populations.application/pdfengCopyright on any article in Fragmenta entomologica is retained by the author(s) under the Creative Commons license (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/), which permits to copy, redistribute remix, transform, and build upon the material in any non-commercial medium or format, provided the original work is properly cited.info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.4081/fe.2019.334info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
