Abstract

A previously unknown male of Cilliba erlangensis (Hirschmann, Zirngiebl-Nicol, 1964) is described based on specimens from Northern Iran. Representatives of the species were found in soil, leaf-litter and moss or in galleries of bark beetles. The first description of the male of Cilliba erlangensis and an updated identifi cation key to the known males of Cilliba are also presented.
