Abstract

Salignus distinguendus tahoensis (Knight) is raised to species status. All published records of the name S. distinguendus (Reuter) from North America are in error and are correctly associated with the name S. tahoensis. A diagnosis and key are provided to distinguish S. tahoensis from the Palearctic S. distinguendus and S. duplicatus (Reuter). The male and female genitalia and distribution of S. tahoensis are illustrated. The relationship between Oreolygus Linnavuori, Orthops Fieber, Pinalitus Kelton, and Salignus is discussed.

Résumé

L’auteur confère le statut d’espèce à Salignus distinguendus tahoensis (Knight). Toutes les mentions publiées sous l’appellation S. distinguendus (Reuter) pour l’Amérique du Nord sont erronées, et doivent être attribuées au taxon S. tahoensis. Le lecteur trouvera une diagnose et une clé lui permettant de distinguer S. tahoensis des espèces paléarctiques S. distinguendus et S. duplicatus (Reuter). Les génitalia mâles et femelles ainsi que de la répartition géographique de S. tahoensis sont illustrés. L’auteur établit également des liens entre Oreolygus Linnavuori, Orthops Fieber, Pinalitus Kelton et Salignus.
