Summary: | Mesembrina latreillii Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 Figs. 1 B, 1 E, 1 H, 4 A–G, 6 A Mesembrina latreillii Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830: 401. Eumesembrina latreillei [sic]; Townsend 1908: 124. Eumesembrina alascensis Townsend, 1908: 124. Diagnosis: One of the smaller species with thoracic and abdominal setae entirely black (Fig. 1 B); gena dusted silver to brownish pollinose, three dusted white lines on prescutum present, M 1 vein ending well past wing apex (Fig. 1 E). Females can usually be separated from the Palaearctic M. resplendens resplendens by the presence of 2 patches of short fine hair on dorsal surface of the fifth abdominal tergite (Fig. 6 A). Type material examined: Eumesembrina alascensis – Holotype Ψ labeled “Kukak Bay / Alaska, July 4 ’ 99 ”; “Harriman Expedition ’ 99 / T. Kincaid, Collector”; “ Mesembrina latreillei [sic] / Desv.”; “ Type / No. 10897 / U. S. M. N.”; “ Eumesembrina alascensis / Type Towns” (USNM). In the original description of M. latreillii, Robineau-Desvoidy (1830) states that the original material for this species is from Nova Scotia and deposited in the Dejean collection. It appears, however, that the type (s) are now lost or destroyed (A.C. Pont, pers. comm.).
