Here we describe 16 novel microsatellite loci in the genome of the dragonhead sap beetle Thymogethes norvegicus, which were identifi ed using a next-generation sequencing approach. In 40 dragonhead sap beetles from a population in southern Norway, we found 2-4 alleles per locus. Expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.18-0.65. Three of the loci showed signifi cant deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. After correcting for multiple tests, one pairwise locus combination displayed signifi cant
