Figs 297 , 519

Nematus vicinus Serville, 1823: 68 . Holotype ♂ (MNHN), not examined. Type locality: northern France.

Nematus longispinis Kriechbaumer, 1885: 13 . Syntypes, sex not stated, not located. A name for specimens determined by A. Förster as N. coeruleocarpus . Type locality: not specified. Synonymy with Nematus crassus auct. nec Fallén by Dalla Torre (1894).

Holconeme flavipes Matsumura, 1912: 218–219 . Syntypes ♀♀, not examined. Type locality: Japan, Hokkaido, Sapporo. Synonymy by Takeuchi (1952).

Diagnosis

Its large size (female typically 8–9 mm, male 7–8 mm), colouration (black pterostigma, pale costa, nearly completely black body, including pronotum and tegula, extensively yellow or orange legs), and long inner hind tibial spur (longer than apical breadth of hind tibia) distinguishes this species from the other Euura .

Host plants

Rumex spp. ( Miles 1936; Kangas 1985). Reports from Betula and Salix (see, e.g., Miles 1936) require confirmation.
