Pseudognaphalium luteoalbum in the Hostýnské vrchy Mts after more than 100 years (eastern Moravia, Czech Republic)

Records of the ladybird Tetrabrachys connatus (Panzer, 1796) from the Czech Republic are summarised based on the study of private collections and published data. It is a rare species in Central Europe. In the Czech Republic it is recently known so far only from a few localities in the South Moravian Region, concentrated in the Pálava Protected Landscape Area. The paper also summarises literature and unpublished data from more than 20 new localities in the Czech Republic from 16 faunistic squares, including the northern-most record from Central Moravia. Most specimens were collected by sifting or pitfall traps in dry grasslands on calcareous or loess soils.
