Remarks. Our previous monograph (Ahrens et al. 2023) missed the previously published synonymy of Microserica pusilla (Thunberg, 1818) with Microserica compressipes (Wiedemann, 1823) (see Ahrens et al. 2019). Hence, in all parts of the paper including Figure 29 “ Microserica compressipes ” should be replaced by the correct and valid name Microserica pusilla (Thunberg, 1818) .
