Euura prussica (Zaddach, 1883)

Nematus prussicus Zaddach, 1883 [in Brischke 1883a]: Taf.1(7), Fig.4 View FIGURES 2 – 9 [larva, host]; text description in Brischke 1884: 166– 167. Described: ♀, ♂, recorded hosts: Salix viminalis and cinerea . Neotype, ♀, designated by Kopelke (2007a), SMF [examined]. Type locality: Germany Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Rügen , Zittvitz.

Pontania prussica: Konow (1890) .

Phyllocolpa prussica: Kopelke (2007) .

Euura prussica: Beneš (2015b) .

Variability. Female: Body length: 2.8–4.3mm. Outer orbits continuously pale to only pale below. Ratio of length flagellomere 2 / height of eye 0.76-0.89. Male: 3.3–4.4mm. Antennal flagellum completely black to pale underneath. Outer orbits continuously pale to only pale below. Abdominal sterna mainly pale to mainly black. Total number of specimens examined: 15.

Genetic data. COI barcodes of species of this complex, as well as E. oblita , are highly similar, and not useful for identification.

Similar species. Females are most similar to the other segregates with typically extensively pale orbits: E. plicadaphnoides , E. polita .

Bionomics. Host plants: Salix cinerea ( Kopelke 2007a) ,? S. caprea (below, and see under Bionomics of E. cyrnea ). Biology: Kopelke (2007a). Five males reared from German localities in Mecklenburg and Baden- Württemberg bear determination labels by Kopelke " Phyllocolpa anomaloptera / S. caprea / Blattrolle/falte klein". The specimens clearly belong to the oblita group, ischnocera subgroup. Based on their rather pale head coloration, darkened femora, and the close relationship of S. cinerea and S. caprea (section Vetrix ), they are probably E. prussica .

Distribution. Central Europe, north to Jämtland in Sweden ( Kopelke 2007a). Occurrence in Sweden: published records; Jämtland ( Kopelke 2007a).
