Yes, it is common there, but conspecific to the European one (which is very rare)

Thank you Valeriy. I know the history of A. coarctata, but I had to get expert's confirmation before submitting it in Gallery. I wonder is it Asian species introduced in Europe or it lives there during do-human epoch? Nikita Vikhrev - Zool Museum of Moscow University |

Still no answer on my wonder. To find answer we need COI sequences of European specimen and that from Far East. If there is 0% of substitutions than it came to Europe with Genghis Khan or later, if there are about 0.5-1% of substitutions, than it came in last thermoera about 120 000 years ago.

It is a forest species depending on its (unknown) melolonthine host. It is reported from Europe from time to time but looks to be endangered here. BTW, there are no barcods of the Old World pyrgotids (except perhas in South Korea -- but Ho-Yeon uses mostly 16S. There were his and my keys, the FER names are still valid, so anyone who wants to barcode Chinese or Japanese stuff can ID it easily. My Oriental revisions remained unfinished.
