Abstract

We present the first records of the diving beetle Ilybius pseudoneglectus (Franciscolo, 1972) from Slovakia. This species is described from Italy and Croatia and is distributed mainly along the Adriatic coast south through Montenegro to Greece. The Slovak specimens come from a flooded inland salt marsh and salt meadow biotope in a lowland near the village of Tvrdošovce (southwestern Slovakia). Laccornis kocae Ganglbauer, 1904, Helophorus micans Faldermann, 1835, and Helochares lividus (Forster, 1771) shared the same microhabitat and are other rare beetles of lowland wetlands.
