Amauronematus acutiserra Lindqvist, 1974b: 19 . Secondary homonym of Pontania acutiserra Lindqvist, 1949 [= Euura acutiserra ( Lindqvist, 1949) ].

Euura aceroserra Taeger & Blank, 2014 in Prous et al. 2014: 52. Replacement name for Amauronematus acutiserra Lindqvist, 1974 .

Diagnosis

Females are very similar to E. humeralis . Valvula 3 seems to be longer than in E. humeralis and the ventral margin is angled in lateral view (rounded in E. humeralis ). Males are also very similar externally, but the valviceps is dorsally more or less straight in E. aceroserra and strongly convex in E. humeralis . Also, the valvispina may be more elongate in E. aceroserra and stouter in E. humeralis .

Type material examined

Holotype Amauronematus acutiserra

NORWAY – Troms • ♀; Helligskogen ; 69.20° N, 20.72° E; 19 Jun. 1967; O. Ranin leg.; MZH, http://id.luomus.fi/GL.5117. GoogleMaps

Host plants

Salix sp. based on ex larva reared female ZMUO.043917.

Genetics

COI

Based on 3 specimens, maximum within-species distance is 0% and the nearest neighbours, diverging by a minimum of 0.61%, are Euura humeralis and E. telos .

Nuclear

Based on 2 specimens, maximum within-species distance is 0.2% (0.34% based on haplotypes of individual females). The nearest neighbour, diverging by a minimum of 0.41%, is Euura humeralis .

Distribution and material examined

Palaearctic. Specimens studied are from Finland, Norway, and Sweden. May be restricted to arctic or subarctic habitats, while the closely related E. humeralis has a more southern distribution.
