Otero, J. C. 2002: Morphometric study of the species Hypocoprus latridioides
Motschulsky, 1839 and H. quadricollis Reitter, 1877 (Coleoptera: Atomariinae).
- Entomol. Fennica 13: 139-145.
Most of the characters used in the literature to distinguish H. latridioides Motschulsky, 1839 from the closely related taxon H. quadricollis Reitter, 1877 are not diagnostic. The present morphometric study indicates that there is no evidence to support the status of the latter as a separate species. A new description of H. latridioides is presented.
