Dinocheirus panzeri

Dinocheirus panzeri (C.L. Koch, 1836) (Figs 11D, 12B) Published data: 40: extraction of compost heap, 25.10.2013, 1 ♀, leg. J.C., A.K. (KaňuchovÁ et al. 2015); 114: extraction of mould of Acer hollow, 18.5.2015, 2 T, 1 P, leg. DI.J. (Christophoryová et al. 2017b); 151: extraction of mould of Quercus hollow, 26.12.2011, 1 ♀, leg. O.M. (KrajčovičovÁ & ChristophoryovÁ 2014); 166: extraction of mould of Aesculus hippocastanum hollow, 11.6.2014, 6 ♀♀, 3 ♂♂, 8 T, 3 D, leg. J.C. (ChristophoryovÁ et al. 2016); 174: extraction of soil, leaves and dead wood, 10.6.2014, 1 D, leg. P.F., MA.K. (Christophoryová et al. 2016); 179: extraction of mould of Acer pseudoplatanus hollow, 11.6.2014, 1 ♀, leg. J.C. (ChristophoryovÁ et al. 2016). New data: 21: pitfall trap, 24.1.2021, 1 ♂, leg. O.M.; 31: extraction of Sturnus vulgaris nest, 18.6.2018, 1 ♂, leg. T.H., Z.O.; 42: extraction of S. vulgaris nest, 2.6.2015, 1 ♀, leg. Z.O.; 160: Malaise trap, 14.4.2014, 1 ♀, leg. O.M.; 164: pitfall trap, 15.2.2020, 3 ♂♂, leg. J.L. European distribution: Albania, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Russia (European part), Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom (Sammet et al. 2016; WPC 2024). Notes: Dinocheirus panzeri is dendrophilous (KrajčovičovÁ & ChristophoryovÁ 2014; ChristophoryovÁ et al. 2016, 2017b). It was also rarely found in compost heap (KaňuchovÁ et al. 2015) and soil (Christophoryová et al. 2016). The present research brings new knowledge about the habitat preference of the species, which was first recorded in bird nests, Malaise, and pitfall traps.
