Petite punaise brun rougeâtre à brun foncé. Tête quadrangulaire sans sillon longitudinal, l'espace entre les yeux plus court que le bord postérieur du pronotum qui est denté. Antennes de 4 articles, le 3e de même longueur que le 2e. Fémurs postérieurs avec 2 grandes dents et 3 autres plus petites, fémurs antérieurs et médians non dentés. Soies très courtes sur les antennes, plus courtes que le diamètre des articles 2 et 3. Bord antérieur latéral du pronotum avec de nombreuses petites dents.
Détermination :
Moyennement difficile.
Espèces proches :
Parmi les petites punaises brunes Pseudophloeinae avec le 3e article antennaire aussi long que le 2e, elle se distingue par le bord postérieur de son pronotum denté. Elle ressemble à Coriomeris denticulatus qui a 10-12 grandes dents sur les bords antéro-latéraux du pronotum, Coriomeris affinis 5 à 8, Coriomeris scabricornis 15 petits tubercules terminés par une soie, et Coriomeris hirticornis qui a de longs poils sur les antennes.
Période d'observation :
Mai à début septembre.
Biologie-éthologie :
Cette espèce a été observée sur des touffes tapissantes de légumineuses (Fabaceae) d'altitude : le lotier des Alpes et le trèfle pâlissant, et se réfugie parfois sous les pierres proches.
Biogéographie et écologie :
Espèce alpine européenne localisée à l'arc alpin, aux Pyrénées, Monts Cantabriques, Apennins, Alpes Dinariques, Monts du Pinde, Anatolie, jusqu'en Iran. Elle vit entre 800 et 2 200 m, dans les milieux rocailleux d'altitude : pierriers, pelouses et prairies des étages subalpin et alpin, friches et milieux rudéraux d'altitude.
The map presents a summary at the 10 x 10 km grid of the observation data for the species transmitted to the SINP. These data have been subjected to validation filters.

Current distribution in metropolitan France
The map presents a reference distribution layer of the species at the scale of departments and marine sectors. The presence and absence data were established by expertise within a network of partners. This reference distribution is used in the validation process of the SINP data at the INPN level.

Certain presence
Corresponds to a report on the basis of at least one observation proved within a period of 10 years (20 years for little-known invertebrates) preceding the year and no presumption of extinction since obtaining the last data nor doubt on reproductive and implemented nature of this population. For migratory species, the presence indicated concerns areas of reproduction.
Probable presence
This status is based on one or more of the following criteria:
search of species incomplete but presence of supportive environments;
ecology of the species consistent with the hypothesis of his presence;
the last reliable sighting is older than 10 years compared to the reference date, no recent specific research and no presumption of extinction from that date [vertebrates, invertebrates and plants well studied (rhopalocera, grasshoppers, dragonflies ...)] ;
the last reliable observation being older than 20 years, no recent specific research and no presumption of extinction from that date [poorly known taxa: fungus, many invertebrates...].
Probable or certain absence
This point covers the absence, more difficult by nature to demonstrate than presence. This status is based on one or more of the following criteria:
intensive but unsuccessful targeted research;
lack of adequate environments;
unobserved species while its presence is easily detected;
unlikely presence for historical or biogeographical reasons.
This status must be assigned to a department in which the presence of the species is casual.
Absence due to a proven extinction
Particular case of absence due to a proven extinction less than a half century ago (older disappearances are treated as "no probable or definite").
No information
In the state of knowledge, we can not comment on the presence or absence in the current department. This is the default status when not comprised in one of the previous categories or whenever there is doubt.
