Cantharis zapatai nom. nov. is proposed for Cantharis schrammi Pic, 1918, which is a primary homonym of Cantharis paulinoi var. schrammi Pic, 1907. The male of the species is redescribed, and the female is described here. The aedeagus and several external features are illustrated, and the species is compared with the closest relatives. Cantharis zapatai nom. nov. differs from its congeners by the characteristic spot in the vertex, yellowish pronotum and elytra, and black scutellum and appendages. The species is known from three localities of west central and central Spain (Iberian Peninsula), Guadalupe (Cáceres) (type locality), Puerto del Milagro (Toledo) and Fuencaliente (Ciudad Real). A key to the Iberian species of the genus Cantharis is provided.
新名斑芫菁Cantharis zapatai被提议用于取代1918年的施氏斑芫菁Cantharis schrammi，后者是1907年保利诺斑芫菁变种schrammi的首同名异物。对该物种的雄性进行了重新描述，并在此描述了雌性。绘制了阳茎和一些外部特征，并将该物种与其近缘种进行了比较。新名斑芫菁与同属其他物种的区别在于头顶的特征斑点、淡黄色的前胸背板和鞘翅，以及黑色的小盾片和附肢。该物种分布于西班牙中西部和中部的三个地区（伊比利亚半岛），分别是瓜达卢佩（卡塞雷斯）（模式产地）、米拉格罗峰口（托莱多）和丰卡利恩特（雷阿尔城）。提供了伊比利亚斑芫菁属物种检索表。
