038687B0FFDEFFD70FFBFA7243C954D2.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Selasia arabica is recorded for the first time from Oman. This species shows a remarkable intraspecific variability in the coloration (Figs 1, 7 – 14). Specimens from the western Yemen and Saudi Arabia usually have elytra black only in apical one third or at most half, antennomeres 3 – 11 darker than scape and pedicel, and antennomeres 4 – 10 with dark brown to black lamellae (Figs 1, 7 – 12). All specimens from Oman and the southern Yemen (Abyan gov.; two specimens) have elytra with black coloration beginning at humeri and continuing obliquely to the inner elytral margins, and uniformly light brown antennae (in few cases antennomeres 3 – 11 slightly darker; Figs 13 – 14). The morphology of this species, e. g., the body size (4.0 – 8.6 mm), the length ratio of lamellae of antennomeres 3 and 4 (0.4 – 0.8), the shape of pronotal lateral margins, the strength of basal elytral striae, the relative length of abdomen, and the shape of apical inner parts of parameres slightly varies not only within the specimens from the geographically distant populations, but also within the specimens from single locality. We failed to find any stable morphological character which would separate differently colored populations, and both are treated as S. arabica. In the original description of S. arabica, Geisthardt (2003) figured parameres of that species (not holotype) and of S. homhilia from Socotra. The brief descriptions of male genitalia of both species were almost identical and although they apparently differ in the shape of parameres, there was no remark about the male genitalia in the diagnoses (Geisthardt 2003). Herein, we studied the genitalia of the S. arabica, including the holotype (Fig. 22). Contrary to S. homhilia (see Kundrata 2012 b), the phallus of S. arabica is curved in lateral view and have a hook located subapically on the dorsal side, which is typical for Drilini representatives (Figs 21 – 22).	en	Trllova, Sarka, Kundrata, Robin (2015): A review of the genus Selasia (Elateridae: Agrypninae: Drilini) in the Palaearctic Region.

038687B0FFD9FFD20FFBFF36456B5612.taxon	discussion	Remarks. Selasia bleusei is transferred to Drilus based on the presence of the V-shaped mesoventrite and the shape of lateral pronotal margins (Figs 17, 19). This species has pectinate antennae (Fig. 18). Although the pectinate antennae can be found in several Selasia species in Africa (e. g., Wittmer 1989), they are more typical for the Mediterranean Drilus species (Kundrata et al. 2014), whilst the vast majority of Selasia spp. have flabellate antennae with long lamellae (Figs 1 – 14).	en	Trllova, Sarka, Kundrata, Robin (2015): A review of the genus Selasia (Elateridae: Agrypninae: Drilini) in the Palaearctic Region.

Ivie & Barclay (2011) transferred this species to Paulusiella Löbl, 2007 (Elateridae incertae sedis). In the original description of S. sweihana, on page 162 Geisthardt (2009) used the name S. emerita instead of S. sweihana. This name was probably used for this species in earlier versions of manuscript and therefore, it is a nomen nudum according to the Code (ICZN 1999).	en	Trllova, Sarka, Kundrata, Robin (2015): A review of the genus Selasia (Elateridae: Agrypninae: Drilini) in the Palaearctic Region.
