REMARKS
European species recorded from Andorra, Austria, France, Germany, Great Britain, Hungary, Marrocco, Poland, Portugal, Spain and Ukraine (Nieves-Aldrey & Pujade-Villar in press).
Synergus crassicornis , S. clandestinus and S. dacianus form a group of closely related species named “ evanescens ” by Kierych (1985). While the morphological characters used are not satisfactory, the biological data enable separation of these species (Pujade-Villar in press). Synergus crassicornis was reared from cynipids galls collected on deciduous and evergreen Quercus . However the specimens reared from Q. ilex and Q. coccifera probably do not belong to the same species as those obtained from deciduous Quercus (Nieves- Aldrey & Pujade-Villar 1986; Pujade-Villar 1992), but it is difficult to morphologically differentiate these populations from adult morphology. For this reason we cannot determine whether the Corsican species are likely to have come from deciduous or evergreen Quercus species.
