Mycetaulus cf. bipunctatus ( Fallén, 1823) View in CoL ( fig. 1 View Fig , 3 View Fig –4)

Fallén, 1823: 3 ( Geomyza View in CoL ); Hennig, 1943: 46 ( Piophila View in CoL ( Mycetaulus View in CoL )); Bukowski, 1940: 203; Zuska, Laštovka, 1965: 154; Stackelberg, 1970 a: 218; McAlpine, 1977: 29; Zuska, 1984: 237; Merz, 1996: 348; Ozerov, 1999: 535 ( Mycetaulus View in CoL ).

M a t e r i a l. Ukraine, Kiev, on horse-shoe fungus, 26.09.201 0, 1 Ơ ( V. Korneyev) ( SIZK) .

D i s t r i b u t i o n. Europe: Czech Republic, Great Britain, France (mainland), Finland, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, Slovakia, Sweden, Switzerland (Ozerov, 2013); Russia (European Territory; Caucasus; Far East) ( Ozerov, 1999); Ukraine (Crimea) ( Bukowski, 1940); Asia: Kyrgyzstan ( Ozerov, 1999). First record from mainland Ukraine.

D i a g n o s i s. This species can be recognized from having wing with large brown apical fleck ( fig. 1 View Fig , 4) with brownish yellow mesonotum and black abdomen ( fig. 1 View Fig , 3 View Fig ), with strong orbital, well developed postpronotal and presutural supra-alar, and two pairs of katepisternal setae.

R e m a r k s. There are two cryptic species in the Nearctic Region (S. Rochefort, pers. comm.),which can be distinguished only from male genitalic characters, and since it is not clear if both of them are present or absent also in Europe, we identify the specimen provisionally.
