The recent occurrence of Longitarsus languidus Kutschera, 1863 in Slovenia and L. minusculus (Foudras, 1860) in west part of the country is confirmed. The second recent evidence of L. noricus Leonardi, 1976 and the third recent evidence of Apteropeda orbicula-ta (Marsham, 1802) in Slovenia are given.

Potrdili smo pojavljanje vrste Longitarsus languidus Kutschera, 1863 v Sloveniji in L. minusculus (Foudras, 1860) v zahodnem delu države. Podajamo tudi drugi novejši podatek za vrsto L. noricus Leonardi, 1976 in tretji za vrsto Apteropeda orbiculata (Marsham, 1802) v Sloveniji. Ključne besede: favna, Coleoptera, Chrysomelidae, Alticinae, Longitarsus, Slovenija Introduction Overview information about Slovenian Alticinae is published in recent years in the work of Brelih et al. (2003) and Gruev (2002, 2003, 2005), and information regarding particular region in the work of Rak Cizej et al. (2001). Recent general information about Central European species and their presence in countries of Palaearctic region is given in publication of Qžek & Doguet (2008) and Döberl (2010). The most detailed survey represents Material for the beetle (Coleoptera) fauna in Slovenia (Brelih et al. 2003), where exact informations about localities of the revised material can be found. Our paper is further contribution to the knowledge of the Slovenian Alticinae fauna and links up to the work of Brelih et al. (2003). For this we used identical abbreviations and identical form of the list of localities including UTM squares, areas, regions and subregions (Tab. 1). The number codes of the individual species are preserved and also number of collected specimens is presented. Data about zoo-geographical characteristics of mentioned taxa are according to Gruev (2004a, b, c). On 24 localities, mostly different from localities presented in Brelih et al. (2003), 48 species of Alticinae were collected in years 1994 - 2004. Notes on localities and biology of Longitarsus languidus Kutschera, 1863, L. minusculus (Foudras, 1860), and L. noricus Leonardi, 1976 are added.

Commentary: Data represent the second recent evidence of this Central European element in Slovenia, the first evidence for the Istrian region. The locality is part of Kraški rob named Spodnji Kras W and NW of Kastelec village, formed by E and NE hillside of hill Kras (346 m). Area is covered with typical steppe grassland, lined by thermophilous oak woods, and flat terrain depression with more rural character - pasture and small vineyards near the village. Type of locality is "Submediteranean-Illyrean pastures of the Karst Plateau" according to European Grasslands Report Nr. 5 (2003) and "Eastern sub-mediterranean dry grasslands" according to Jogan et al. (2004). We didn't controlled and recorded plants in this locality, but the nature of the locality corresponds with L. noricus characteristics - grassland specialist, eurytope and oligophagous species on Asteraceae. 03.10.

Commentary: Data represent recent confirmation of this species (Central European element) in Slovenia. Finding site approves the occurrence in western part of Slovenia only from before 31.12.1950 (Brelih et al. 2003). In this work is one date of collection of this thermophile species - October 1930 in Plave (Primorsko). Gruev (2003) presented distribution in Slovenia (without any details), and in Croatia-Istria and North-East Italy. These areas are near here presented locality. Locality of collection is steppe hillside lined with deciduous trees. Type of locality is the same as described for L. noricus in general. Strejček (1996) presented range of occurrence in Czech Republic (Pâlava Biosphere Reserve of UNESCO, South Moravia) in grassy steppe in months of March and April and then in October. From this point of view is interesting the occurrence at the end of June. When collecting we didn't control and record plants in this locality. The presence of Senecio jacobaea L. is very probable, as this type of locality, steppe hillside, agrees with the ecological requirements of the nutrient plant (Slavfk & Stëpânkovâ 2004) of this monophagous and stenotope beetle species (Čfžek & Doguet 2008). 03.48. Longitarsus minusculus (Foudras, 1860) Localities: Istra: Kastelec, Kozina env., 29.-30.10.2002 (5 sp), lcZMa dPČi. Commentary: Data represent the third recent locality of this Central European element in Slovenia, first in western part of the country. It gives a confirmation of the formerly presented occurrence in the region Istra (before 1951, Brelih et al. 2003, Müller 1953). The description of the locality is presented in "Commentary" by L. noricus. The nature of the locality corresponds with L. minusculus characteristics - steppe and forest steppe species, stenotope and oligophagous on Lamiaceae. 03.50.
