Euura pallidinervis

158 Euura pallidinervis (Hellén, 1951) Fig. 156 Pteronidea pallidinervis Hellén, 1951b: 108–109. Diagnosis Its large size (9–10 mm), short antenna and mostly black body distinguish this species from the others in the E. flavescens group. The lancet is not distinguishable from E. renei and E. serela sp. nov., but these species are smaller (5.5–6.8 mm) and much paler. Male unknown. Type material examined Syntype Pteronidea pallidinervis RUSSIA – Karelia • ♀; Kestenga, Mäntytunturi; 66.323° N, 30.067° E; 28 Jun. 1935; G.J. Kerrich leg.; MZH, http://id.luomus.fi/GL.3516. Notes Largely destroyed: parts of thorax and abdomen, two hind wings, one mid leg, and parts of both hind legs remain. Interpretation of the species is largely based on the possible syntype ♀ from Utsjoki (below). Possible syntype Pteronidea pallidinervis FINLAND – Inari Lapland • ♀; Utsjoki; 69.91° N, 27.03° E; W.
