Abstract
In this study; (1) A new species, Favognathus rosulatus sp. nov., from Turkey is described. (2) Favognathus dakotaensis is recorded for the first time from Turkey. (3) Two species (Favognathus aegyptiaca comb. nov. and Favognathus rosetta comb. nov.) previously described from Egypt are transferred from Cryptognathus to Favognathus. (4) It has been determined that the names of Favognathus agapictus proposed by Flechtmann (1971) and Favognathus dama proposed by Chaudhri et al. (1979) are not taxonomically valid according to International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN). The works of Flechtmann (1971) and Chaudhri et al. (1979) are not to be regarded as published for the purposes of zoological nomenclature according to ICZN, and the names of F. agapictus and F. dama in these works are regarded as nomina nuda. (5) It is considered that the specimens given under the name of Favognathus orbiculatus by Bagheri et al. (2015) from Iran should be transferred to Favognathus kamili.
