Euura sulciceps

131 Euura sulciceps (Lindqvist, 1959) Figs 121, 357 Pteronidea sulciceps Lindqvist, 1959c: 57–58. Diagnosis Mostly black body, bifid claws, valvula 3 somewhat expanded in middle, and structure of lancets (abruptly narrowing from base to apex, protruding serrulae, apical serrulae also rather acute, middle sutures more or less straight) should enable separation of females from the other similar species. The males are not clearly distinguishable from E. leptostigma, E. leucopyga, E. parviserrata, E. polaris, and E. polepso sp. nov. Type material examined Holotype Pteronidea sulciceps NORWAY – Nordland • ♀; Umbukta, Krabfjäll; 66.15° N, 14.59° E; 13 Jul. 1957; S. Gaunitz leg.; MZH, http://id.luomus.fi/GL.5118. Host plants Unknown. Genetics COI Based on 5 specimens, maximum within-species distance is 0.15% and the nearest neighbours, diverging by a minimum of 0%, are Euura leptostigma and E. polaris. Nuclear Based on 4 specimens, maximum within-species distance is 0.41% (0.44% based on haplotypes of individual females). The nearest neighbour, diverging by a minimum of 0.15%, is Euura leptostigma. Distribution and material examined Palaearctic. Specimens studied are from Finland, Norway, and Sweden.
