CONFIRMED PRESENCE OF ACROSSUS RUFIPES (LINNAEUS, 1758) IN SARDINIA, ITALY (COLEOPTERA SCARABAEIDAE APHODIINAE APHODIINI)
The occurence of Acrossus rufipes (Linnaeus, 1758) in Sardinia is confirmed based on two specimens collected in the Sette Fratelli mountain area (South-Eastern Sardinia). The presence of this species on the island was pre- viously considered doubtful, although it was reported in historical literature and corroborated only by a few finds from the early 20th century. Key Words: New faunistic record, Sardinia, dung beetle, woodland environment.
