Dodia albertae Dyar Figs. 1, 4, 6, 8 Dodia albertae Dyar, 1901: 85. Hypocrita atra A. Bang-Haas, 1912: 109. Hyperborea kozhantshikovi Sheljuzhko, 1918: 104. Dodia albertae eudiopta Tshistjakov, 1988: 638, fig. 5; subspecies. Type material. Dodia albertae – Type locality: “Calgary, Alberta, [Canada], head of Pine Creek.” Male lectotype designated by Tshistjakov and Lafontaine (1984), USNM type No. 5747 [USNM, photograph examined]. Hipocrita atra – Type locality: “Arasagun-gol (Sajan)” according to original description, label on lectotype reads “Arasagun-go / Sajan” [Sayan Mountain range, Mongolia]. Male lectotype designated by Tshistjakov and Lafontaine (1984) [ZMHB, photograph examined]. Note – Hipocrita is an incorrect subsequent spelling of Hypocrita Hübner, [1807]. Hyperborea kozhantshikovi – Type locality: “in montes Dzhugdzhuz [Dzhugdzhur], ad flum. Dzhelinda” [Dzhugdzhur Mountains, Dzhelinda River, eastern Siberia; near the head of the Aldan River according to Tschistjakov (1988)]. Described from 1 male and 1 female syntype; male lectotype (and four paralectotypes) designated by Tshistjakov and Lafontaine (1984) [ZIN, genitalia slide no. 15,191; not examined]. Since only one male was included in the original type material, it is not clear which if any of the lectotype designations are valid. We follow Tschistjakov’s (1988) synonymy; he examined a genitalic preparation of the lectotype in his review of Palaearctic specimens of D . albertae , and treated kozhantshikovi as a synonym of D . albertae albertae . Dodia albertae eudiopta Tshistjakov, 1988 – Type locality: [Olenek River between lower Tomba and Alakit River, Russia]. Holotype male [ZIN; not examined]. The diagnosis and genitalic illustration of this taxon in the original description clearly show that it is more closely allied to D . albertae than to the new species described below. Diagnosis. See species key, and diagnosis of D . tarandus . Distribution and biology. Dodia albertae is widely distributed across the northern hemisphere in wet subarctic ...
