Phygadeuon paradoxus (Bridgman, 1889) View in CoL

In the same group of species with brachypterous females there also is P. paradoxus . Its fore wing is short, its mesosoma (and metasoma for some part) is shiny and its ovipositor is very short for the genus (the sheaths measuring only one fifth of the hind tibiae). The species therefore is easy to recognise by pictures. Furthermore, it is mainly black, with brownish legs and reddish marks on the second and third tergite ( HORSTMANN, 1993).

First report for Belgium; unreported in the Netherlands.
