Abstract

Stilbus lineatopunctatus sp. nov. from Iran and S. orientalis sp. nov. from Far East, Ussuri region, are described and distinguished from similar species. A key to the identification of all the known Palaearctic species of Stilbus Seidlitz, 1872 is provided. A new combination is proposed for Stilbus yezoensis Hisamatsu, 1985 as Olibrus yezoensis (Hisamatsu. 1985). S. sharpi (Guillebeau, 1896) is recorded from Iran and S. testaceus (Panzer, 1797) from Jordan for the first time.
