This study provides a description of Dorcadion fulvum opillicum ssp. nov., which is the fourth subspecies of the central European species Dorcadion fulvum (S copoli , 1763). The new subspecies was compared with its closest relative, Dorcadion fulvum erythropterum F ischer von W aldheim , 1823. A differential diagnosis and a key to taxa identification are provided. The distribution of all four subspecies of D. fulvum was clarified and mapped with comments on the most contradictory published data.
