    ABSTRACT
    During a wildlife expedition to Crete Island (Greece), we found a population of Calomera Motschulsky, 1862 (Coleoptera Carabidae Cicindelinae), which was new to this island and that we describe as a new subspecies (C. panormitana cretensis n. ssp.). In this paper, some taxonomic and biogeographical observations on the C. aphrodisia (Baudi di Selve, 1864) group are provided, the validity of the taxon C. panormitana is confirmed, and, for nomenclatural stability, a neotypus of C. lugens Dejean, 1831, and a lectotypus of C. panormitana are designated.
