Propomacrus cypriacus
Propomacrus cypriacus
Propomacrus cypriacus is a beetle.
The beetle
It was first described by Alexis ug Makris in 2002.
Beetles are the largest insect order. The hard forewings (elytra) cover the flight wings; larvae and adults often eat different things.
An insect has six legs and, in winged forms, one or two pairs of wings. Most named species in this catalog are known from a type series and a locality, not from a popular field guide.

Propomacrus cypriacus is recorded from Cyprus.
GBIF currently lists 22 occurrence points. Those points follow where people logged the taxon — museum drawers and surveys included — not a closed range boundary.
Pins are Wikidata “endemic to” fields. Orange dots, when present, are GBIF occurrence tiles — survey bias included.
Life history
