Porricondyla rufescens Panelius 1965

Porricondyla rufescens Panelius, 1965 Morphological identification Jaschhof & Jaschhof (2013). See the remarks below. DNA barcode CO1 sequences (651‒654bp) of the three specimens listed below are available in BIN BOLD:AEE6538. Search on BOLDʼs BIN Database retrieved a further match for this BIN, as Cecidomyiidae sp. from Bavaria, Germany (accessed 27 Aug. 2023). Material examined GERMANY ‒ Bavaria • 1 ♂; Upper Bavaria, Rudelzhausen; 48°57′84″ N, 11°86′26″ E; elev. 520 m; 16 Jul. 2019; LandKlif and J. Müller leg.; Malaise trap; BOLD GBDTA10072-21; ZSM-DIP-42305-A02 • 1 ♂; Upper Franconia, Kasendorf; 50°02′76″ N, 11°31′20″ E; elev. 481 m; 13 Jul. 2019; LandKlif and J. Müller leg.; Malaise trap; BOLD GBDTA10094-21; ZSM-DIP-42305-B12 • 1 ♂; same data as for preceding; BOLD GBDTA10097-21; ZSM-DIP-42305-C03. Distribution Germany (new record); widespread in Europe, Turkmenistan, Far East of Russia (Gagné & Jaschhof 2021). Remarks DNA barcoding suggests that there are two presumably unnamed species close to P. rufescens. CO1 sequences (641‒654bp) of one of these are available in BIN BOLD:ACR4876. Search on BOLD’s BIN Database retrieved a further two matches for this BIN, both as Cecidomyiidae sp. from Germany and Belarus (accessed 27 Aug. 2023). This potentially new species, labeled here Porricondyla sp. MJDE5, also occurs in Sweden (unpublished data). The gonostylus of P. sp. MJDE5 is markedly more slender compared with P. rufescens, thus resembling that of P. clancula (Jaschhof & Jaschhof 2013: fig. 104b). The other potentially new species, labeled here Porricondyla sp. MJDE6, is represented in the present material by a single male, whose gonostylus has a peculiar shape that lies between that in P. sp. MJDE5 and P. rufescens. The CO1 sequence of that specimen is available in BIN BOLD:ACP3841. Search on BOLDʼs BIN Database (accessed 27 Aug. 2023) retrieved a further six matches for this BIN, all as Cecidomyiidae sp. from Germany (five matches) and Bulgaria (one).
