Treatment

Pristiphora paralella (Hartig, 1840) comb. n. Figs 36, 112-114, 169, 296

Nematus paralellus Hartig, 1840: 25. Lectotype ♀ (GBIF-GISHym3375; here designated) in ZSM, examined. Type locality: not stated.

Lygaeonematus tenuicornis Lindqvist, 1955a: 142-143, syn. n. Holotype ♀ (NHRS-HEVA000003769) in NHRS, examined. Type locality: Freskati, Stockholm, Sweden. Note. The name tenuicornis has apparently not been used as valid more than 25 times during the last 50 years (we found 19 publications) and therefore Article 23.9.1 ( ICZN 1999) cannot be applied in this case.

Similar species.

Females are most similar to P. bufo . In P. paralella , valvula 3 is slightly truncate (clearly not truncate in P. bufo ) in lateral view, and the anterior protibial spur is without velum (with velum in P. bufo ). Males are best recognised by examining penis valves (see the Key).

Genetic data.

Based on COI barcode sequences, P. paralella belongs to its own BIN cluster (BOLD:AAX8164) (Fig. 5). Maximum distance within the BIN is 1.29%. The nearest neighbour to BOLD:AAX8164, diverging by minimum of 6.16%, is BOLD:ACO1401 ( P. euxantha ). No nuclear data are available.

Host plants.

Picea sp. ( Kajmuk 1988, as P. tenuicornis ).

Distribution and material examined.

Palaearctic. Specimens studied are from Germany, Poland, Russia (Primorsky Krai), and Sweden.
