Ochthebius (Cobalius) lanthanus sp. nov. is described from rockpools in Gran Canaria, based on specimens collected by Professor F. Balfour-Browne in 1932 and newly collected material. The species is morphologically very similar to O. (Cobalius) algicola Wollaston, 1871 from Madeira, but at a genetic distance of ca 10% as measured with the gene cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1. The water beetle collections of Balfour-Browne's trip to Gran Canaria (1932) and Madeira (1933) are also reported.
新种拉氏岸栖豉甲(Ochthebius (Cobalius) lanthanus)是根据F. 巴尔弗-布朗教授1932年采集的标本以及新采集的材料,在大加那利岛的岩池中描述的。该物种在形态上与来自马德拉岛的1871年的藻生岸栖豉甲(O. (Cobalius) algicola Wollaston)非常相似,但用细胞色素c氧化酶亚基1基因测量的遗传距离约为10%。还报告了巴尔弗-布朗1932年前往大加那利岛和1933年前往马德拉岛采集水甲虫的情况。
