چکیده
Taxonomy and distribution of the genus Pterydrias Reitter, 1895 (Coleoptera: Ripiphoridae: Ripidiinae) are revised. Based on examination of the type material, the genus Pterydrias is confirmed as a senior synonym of the genus Eorhipidius Iablokoff-Khnzorian, 1986. Pterydrias debilis Reitter, 1895 is redescribed and illustrated, and its type locality is corrected to Haifa, Israel. The following new combinations are established: Pterydrias januschevi (IablokoffKhnzorian, 1986) comb. nov., P. jelineki (Batelka & Hájek, 2009) comb. nov., P. loebli (Batelka & Hájek, 2009) comb. nov., and P. ruzickai (Batelka & Hájek, 2009) comb. nov. (all from Eorhipidius). An identification key to all species is provided and their distributions are mapped.
