Diagnosis and remarks. There is wing polymorphism in both sexes of M. gorodkovi from macropterous (Fig. 6) to micropterous. The main epiproct sclerites are almost equal in width in dorsal view, but slightly wider medially (Figs. 4–5, 14). This species was previously reported from Russia, Wrangell, Chukotka Peninsula, south of the Magadan region, Koryak Highlands, Paramushiro, and Primorye.
