This study provides a description of Dorcadion fulvum opillicum ssp. nov., which is the fourth subspecies of the central European species Dorcadion fulvum (SCOPOLI, 1763). The new subspecies was compared with its closest relative, Dorcadion fulvum erythropterum FISCHER VON WALDHEIM, 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.
