Overview

Iberodorcadion fuliginator is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Carl Linnaeus in his landmark 1758 10th edition of Systema Naturae. It is known from Central Europe: Spain, Belgium, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Portugal, France, Germany, Austria, Lithuania, and Switzerland.

Iberodorcadion fuliginator is critically endangered primarily due to habitat loss and degradation from agricultural intensification and urban development in its limited range in the Iberian Peninsula. The species' highly restricted distribution and specialized habitat requirements make it extremely vulnerable to environmental changes and human activities.
