Material examined. *Russian Fennoscandia (total 14 exx.): Ik: Kivennapa [= Pervomaiskoe]; Muolaa [= Pravdino]; Sakkola [= Gromovo]; Uusikirkko [= Polyany]; Äyräpää [= Baryshevo]; Ka: Viipuri [= Vyborg]; Kl: Kurkijoki.

Distribution. Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Sweden, *Russian Fennoscandia.—Transpalearctic: from Europe to China (Manchuria) ( Linsenmaier 1959).

Remarks. The species is closely related to H. nobile , from which it can sometimes be difficult to distinguish. It is not as common as H. nobile , but its distribution area seems to extend slightly further north in Finland and Sweden. Kunz (1994) synonymized H. niemelai with H. nobile on the basis of the similarity of male genitalia. Recent authors, however, consider them to be separate species. Unpublished molecular data also support the recognition of H. niemelai as a valid species. Soon (2004) reported the species from Denmark based on 43 specimens deposited in ZMUC.

Many authors have used the spelling niemelaei instead of the correct form niemelai for the name of this species (e.g. Jacobs & Kornmilch 2007). Originally, the taxon was named after the Finnish entomologist Paavo Niemelä as niemeläi by Linsenmaier (1959). According to the ICZN (1999, article 32.5.2.1.), diacritic marks are deleted in scientific names, unless the name was based upon a German word and published before 1985, in which case the umlaut sign is deleted from a vowel and the letter "e" is inserted after that vowel. Because Niemelä is a Finnish name (not German), as cited by the author in the original description, the correct spelling is niemelai .
