Аннотация
The darkling beetle Mesostena puncticollis Solier, 1835 is recorded for Uzbekistan for the first time. Beetles were collected in the Sundukli desert and the foothills of the Nurota Mountains. The species is widely distributed from the Northern Afrotropics to Central Asia, but our records significantly expand the range of the species to the northeast. Male genitalia are imaged and compared with other Tentyriini genera for the first time. Bionomics and distribution of M. puncticollis in Central Asia are analysed.
