Abstract: Polydrusus (Eustolus) scapularis Pesarini, 1975 Notes. Pesarini (1975) overlooked P. viridimaculatus Pic, 1919 while describing P. scapularis, and compared his new species with Polydrusus (Poecilodrusus) elegans Reitter, 1887, P. (Poecilodrusus) viridicinctus Gyllenhal, 1834, and P. (Eurodrusus) cervinus (Linnaeus, 1758), placing it in the P. cervinus species-group. The paratype of Polydrusus scapularis in the ZIN collection was examined. External morphology and the structure of aedeagus and spermatheca of Polydrusus scapularis give evidence that it is a junior synonym of P. viridimaculatus.
