Summary: | Euura auritae Kopelke, 2000 Euura ( Euura ) cinereae Kopelke, 1996: 102. Described: ♀, ♂, gall, recorded host: Salix cinerea . Holotype, ♀, SMF [examined]. Type locality: Finland, Joensuu. Preoccupied in Euura by Nematus cinereae Thomson, 1871 (= Euura saliciscinereae (Retzius)). Syn. nov. Euura ( Euura ) auritae Kopelke, 2000: 160 –162. Described: ♀, ♂, gall, recorded host: Salix aurita . Holotype, ♀, SMF [examined]. Type locality: Norway, N.- Trøndelag, Malm. Euura ( Euura ) lapponica Kopelke, 1996: 106. Described: ♀, ♂, gall, recorded host: Salix lapponum. Holotype, ♀, SMF [examined]. Type locality: Norway, Nordland, Korgfjellet. Preoccupied in Euura by Pontania lapponica Malaise, 1921 (= E. crassipes (Thomson)). Syn. nov. Euura salicislapponicae Kopelke in Prous et al. 2014: 53, replacement name for E. lapponica Kopelke. Notes on types and taxonomy. Kopelke (1996) described the underside of valvula 3 of E. cinereae in lateral view as concave, and stated that this is unique amongst the nominal taxa previously treated as E. atra . The ventral edge of valvula 3 of the holotype is quite strongly concave, but of eight further specimens labelled as reared from S. cinerea , only one has valvula 3 somewhat concave: in one other this edge is straight, and in the remaining six convex. The lancets of these specimens are not as strongly curved as described or illustrated by Kopelke (1996) and are in this respect not clearly distinguishable from those of other nominal taxa (this can be seen in the illustrations of the lancets published by Kopelke 2006). In particular, we found no morphological differences between specimens reared from S. aurita , S. cinerea , and S. lapponum . Therefore, we treat the three nominal taxa associated with these hosts as conspecific. Variability. Female: Body length: 3.3–5.5mm. Antennal flagellum apically extensively pale to completely black. Upper hind angle of pronotum pale to completely dark. Tegula yellow to black. Male: 2.6–5.2mm. Female and male: outer orbits and lateral vertex somewhat ... |
