Nematus neglectus W.F. Kirby, 1882: 147 . Syntypes ♀ ♂ (BMNH), not examined. Type locality: Canada, Hudson Bay, St Martin’s Falls.

Amauronematus spiniserra Malaise, 1921b: 119 . Synonymy by Lindqvist (1972).

Amauronematus intermedius Malaise, 1931b: 39–40 . Lectotype designated by Saarinen (1948). Synonymy by Benson (1962).

Diagnosis

Externally, females are most similar to E. longiserra and E. eiteli . Serrulae are larger and distinctly more protruding in E. longiserra , but almost flat in E. eiteli (intermediate in E. neglecta ). Darker females of E. neglecta still seem to be paler (abdominal terga dorsally extensively pale starting at least from tergum 7 and mesepisternum usually completely pale) than E. munda females (terga 1–8 dorsally fully black, mesepisternum is usually ventrally black). Usually extensively reddish or orange legs and pale sternum 9 in males might distinguish them from E. munda and E. longiserra .

Genetics

COI

Based on 22 specimens, maximum within-species distance is 2.89% and the nearest neighbours, diverging by a minimum of 0%, are Euura munda , E. eiteli (DEI-GISHym84213), and E. longiserra .

Nuclear

Based on 21 specimens, maximum within-species distance is 0.95% (0.46% based on haplotypes of individual females). The nearest neighbour, diverging by a minimum of 0.29%, is Euura eiteli (DEIGISHym84213).

Distribution and material examined

Holarctic. Specimens studied are from Finland, Russia, and Sweden.
