Taxonomic note: O. rammei Harz, 1973 View in CoL syn. nov. was described from Rijeka or hills above Rijeka (Kvarner or the Dinaric Alps) by Harz (1973). Since then, the species has not been recorded and no studies aiming to assess its identity and/or distribution have been conducted. According to our morphological studies on the populations of O. fallax / O. rammei syn. nov. from seven different localities in Croatia and after examination of the type material of both species, we found: 1) no differences in external morphology exist between the species, while the shape of genitalia varies equally in all examined populations, differences reported by Harz (1973) being of no diagnostic value; 2) no differences exist in morphometric traits between the species, especially in vertex width/eye width ratio, used by Harz (1973) as a diagnostic trait—measurements taken from altogether 48 specimens (including holotypes of both species, two paratypes of O. rammei syn. nov. and an allotype of O. fallax ) indicated only sexual dimorphism-related size differences in the sample (females being on average larger); 3) preliminary molecular analysis on freshly collected specimens resulted in a single monophyletic cluster without separation of subordinate evolutionary units (Skejo, Rebrina, Tvrtković—fieldwork and morphological study, L. Lovrenčić—molecular study, unpublished data). No geographical, morphological or molecular evidence imply separation of O. rammei syn. nov. from O. fallax , hence we regard it a junior synonym of O. fallax . Within-species variability of genitalia shape, along with the small size of existing series, were likely responsible for its separation from the latter species. 62. Odontopodisma schmidtii ( Fieber, 1853) = crnozadi (crvenokrili) listoplaz
First faunistic record for Croatia: Ramme 1951 [we regard this to be the first exact record because older records could also belong to O. decipiens or O. fallax , both later described from Croatia]
Also reported as: Pezotettix mendax Fischer, 1853 [partim] ( Padewieth 1900)
Distribution in Croatia: Present in Istria, Kvarner and the Dinaric Alps north of Velebit Mt., common in the Pannonian region.
Distribution in Europe: Northeastern Italy, Southern Austria, Southwestern Hungary, Slovenia, Pannonian and partly Dinaric Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and northern Serbia (Chobanov et al. 2016).
