Abstract

Synapion (Giustiapion) benedikti Giusto, Košťál and Holecová n. sp. from Albania and Greece (♂♀; type locality: Central Greece: Kaliakouda Mts.: Aniáda env.) is described. It is compared with Synapion (Giustiapion) falzonii (Schatzmayr, 1922) and Synapion (Giustiapion) perraudieri (Desbrochers des Loges, 1884) and a key to the three species is presented.
