Recently was published excellent paper of Fominykh, Zamotajlov, Khomitskiy & Titarenko, 2020 "Contribution to the knowledge of Carabus (Lipaster) stjernvalli Mannerheim, 1830 in the Caucasus, with description of two new subspecies (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Carabini)", "dedicated to study of variability of species Carabus (Lipaster) stjernvalli", although, in fact, the sole purpose of the work was to describe new taxa in order to sell their Paratypes.
But, this work perfectly proves that there are no differences between the previously described subspecies, as well as the newly described ones. New synonymy in the species Carabus (Lipaster) stjernvalli proposed here 12.2.2020 by A. Anichtchenko

I'm looking for Cicindelinae (especially Nearctic and Australian), Cychrini (Nearctic and from China) and Carabus from China. Quality of material is not important. For exchange I can offer huge quantity of material of Coleoptera worldwide, of all families except Carabidae. For detales please contact Alexander Anichtchenko beetl2000(*)mail.ru
It is desirable for each taxonomist to follow the rule of Occam's razor: "Entities are not to be multiplied without necessity" (Non sunt multiplicanda entia sine necessitate). The purpose of Taxonomy-science is to understand and restore order, and not to describe as many new species as possible.

This project is the result of our personal initiative, effort, and funding. Presently we do not have any external funding support and if we are unable to raise enough funds through your donations, it will be necessary to limit some functions of the website. Maintenance, updates and development will also see significant negative impacts. It is our desire to provide a beautiful, functional and useful tool for all students of Carabidae. Your generosity can help us realize this goal and keep this resource available to everyone into the future.
Many of you have used this site to research and publications. Please indicate this. This is the least that you can do in gratitude for the work done by us. And you can still make a donation.
