References. Negrobov, Stackelberg 1977: 349 (as Medetera tuberculata Negrobov , nec Medetera tuberculata Negrobov, 1966 ).

Distribution. Type locality: Russia, Primorye: “Ussuri, Jakovlevka”. Palaearctic: Russia (Primorye).

Notes. The name Medetera tuberculosa was validated by Negrobov, Stackelberg (1972) by insertion of the new species (without an aurthor’s name) into the identification key. This new species was described in Negrobov, Stackelberg (1977) as “ Medetera tuberculata Negrobov , sp. n. ” that became a junior synonym of M. tuberculosa Negrobov et Stackelberg, 1972 . However, the new species was illustrated by Negrobov, Stackelberg (1977: Taf. CXIII, Figs 890–892 and Taf. CXIV, Figs 896–897) under the name “ Medetera tuberculosa Negrobov , sp.n. ”Therefore, we follow here the proposal of Negrobov (1991) and write the full species name as Medetera tuberculosa Negrobov in Negrobov et Stackelberg, 1972. This name was in error considered nomen nudum by Negrobov, Naglis (2016).
