Tephritis separata Rondani, 1871

(figs 4, a–c)

Merz, Korneyev, 2004; Bjeliš, 2007: 372 ( T. divisa), 373 ( T. separata).

Material. Karlovac: Modruš: Draga, 11.06.2022, 3 ♂, 1 ♀ ; Feuchtgebiet vor Lug, 02.08.2021, 3 ♂, 1 ♀ ; bei Autobahn, 24.05.2022, 1 ♂; bei Senj Strasse, 03.08.2021, 1 ♀ ; Wiese oberhalb Lug, 22.05.2022, 1 ♂ (Kovac leg.) (SMNF) .

Remarks. Our material shows a complete range of wing pattern variability between current species concepts of T. divisa and T. separata and certainly all belong to one species. Specimens listed by Bjeliš (2007) as T. divisa and T. separata often have the same label data and thus very possibly are all conspecific. Additional study of T. divisa in its type locality is needed to clarify if it and T. separata represent different species or merely variations of the same species.
