Bryomyia amurensis Mamaev & Okland 1998

Description

Bryomyia amurensis Mamaev & Økland, 1998

Our specimen from Sweden fits perfectly the description of Bryomyia amurensis by Mamaev & Økland (1998). A distinct character of this species is the uniformly short setae covering the inside of the gonostylus (Mamaev & Økland 1998: fig. 1D). This is the first record of B. amurensis in the Western Palearctic.

Previous distribution. Russia (Far East), Japan. Occurrence in Sweden: Småland.

Specimen studied. SWEDEN: male (CEC225), Småland, Nybro, Bäckebo, Grytsjön NR, tall forest of aspen and conifers, 15 May–16 June 2015, Malaise trap, M. & C. Jaschhof.
