172 Euura kangasi (Lindqvist, 1964) Figs 192, 421 Pteronidea kangasi Lindqvist, 1964: 124–127. Diagnosis Very similar to E. cadderensis and E. ferruginea, which seem to have paler hind tarsi (black in E. kangasi). Females of E. kangasi apparently have a completely pale thorax but distinctly blackened basal abdominal terga, while E. cadderensis and E. ferruginea can be from completely pale to much darker, but the thorax and abdomen are black to a similar degree.
