Pristiphora exigua (Lindqvist, 1955) Figs 101-102, 133, 258

Lygaeonematus exiguus Lindqvist, 1955a: 143. Holotype ♂ (DEI-GISHym20912) in MZH, examined. Type locality: Espoo, Uusimaa, Finland.

Similar species.

The most similar species is P. retusa , females of which usually have a mostly black metafemur in (pale in P. exigua ) and narrower valvula 3 (Figs 101-103). Males are best recognised by examining penis valves (see the Key).

Genetic data.

Based on COI barcode sequences (only one specimen in BOLD), P. exigua belongs to its own BIN cluster (BOLD:ADD4067). The nearest neighbour to BOLD:ADD4067, diverging by a minimum of 4.3%, is BOLD:ABU7029 ( P. retusa ). No nuclear data are available.

Host plants.

Unknown.

Distribution and material examined.

West Palaearctic. Specimens studied are from Finland.
