(figs 1, a–g, j)

Myopites inulaedyssentericae auctt. (pro parte); Myopites apicatus Freidberg, 1980 .

Material. Karlovac: Modruš: bei Autobahn, 14.08.2021 , 1 ♂, bei Senj Strasse, 03.08.2021, 1 ♀ (Kovac leg.) (SMNF) .

Remarks. Revision of the genus Myopites Blot (Korneyev et al., in prep.) has shown that M. blotii (also sometimes reported as M. inulaedyssentericae Blot) associated with Pulicaria dysenterica in Western to Southern Europe and the Near East and M. inulae associated with Pentanema ensifolium, Pe. hirtum, and Pe. salicinum are different species. They were hitherto confused in most catalogues, keys and revisions of Palaearctic Tephritidae . Synonymy will be explained and justified in the forthcoming revision (Korneyev et al., in prep.).
