Goniodes colchici Denny, 1842

Host: Phasianus colchicus Linnaeus, 1758 .

Ref.: Straka (1987); Goldová et al. (2006); this paper.

Locations: Martin, 7 Dec. 1977 (Straka Coll., AKMM); Game Management Centre, Rozhanovce, 2000–2004 ( Goldová et al. 2006); Studené, 27 Jul. 1998 (Krištofík Coll., VETUNI) .

Note: Straka (1987) reported Goniodes colchici from Phasianus colchicus from “Martin, 20 Jan. 1977 ”, but it is most likely an error, because in Straka’s notes on labels of two available slides with aforementioned date and location host is given as “jarabica poľná = Perdix perdix ” (see below). Although we only examined one nymph from the Krištofík Collection, it is most likely Goniodes colchici , with the type and only host Phasianus colchicus (see Price et al. 2003: 183).
