See Pollet et al . (2015) for a re-description and illustration of S . pulicarius . For this study, we have re-examined numerous specimens of this species collected in many regions of European Russia, and in other countries of Europe including Finland and Sweden, which were included in the area of occurrence of a sibling species S. septentrionalis (Pollet et al . 2015), but we have found no specimens with the characters of the latter species. Therefore, we confirm our identifications of S . pulicarius published in several of our papers during the last 50 years. : Published as part of Negrobov, Oleg P., Grichanov, Igor Ya. & Selivanova, Olga V., 2017, Review of East Palaearctic species of Sympycnus Loew, 1857, with a key to species, pp. 531-548 in Zootaxa 4277 (4) on pages 538-539, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4277.4.4, http://zenodo.org/record/814621 : {"references": ["Fallen, C.
