| Abstract: | The presence of the genus Platycleis in the Maltese Islands is reviewed on the basis of existing literature and specimen records from research collections. Of the five species treated, three - Platycleis affinis Fie her, P. intermedia (Serville), and P. sabulosa Azam - are confirmed and two -P. albopunctata (GOEZE) and P. grisea (FABRICTUS) - are rejected, based on morphometric and anatomical assessment. |
