Abstract
A revised diagnosis and taxonomic notes on the Holarctic fairyfly Polynema (Doriclytus) atratum Haliday, 1833 (Hymenoptera: Mymaridae), a common species in northern Europe, are given. Polynema ruficolle Kieffer, 1913, syn. nov. (Scotland, United Kingdom), P. microptera Bakkendorf, 1934, syn. nov. (Denmark, for which a lectotype is designated), as well as P. fennicum Soyka, 1946, syn. nov. (Finland, originally described as P. fennica), P. novickyi Soyka, 1946, syn. nov. (Austria), P. aequicoloratum (Soyka, 1950), syn. nov. (Finland, originally described as Novickyella aequicolorata), P. auripedicellatum (Soyka, 1950), syn. nov. (Finland, originally described as Novickyella auripedicellata), P. calceatiscapus (Soyka, 1950), syn. nov. (Finland, originally described as Novickiella [sic] calceatiscapus), P. fennicosimile (Soyka, 1950), syn. nov. (Finland, originally described as Novickyella fennicosimilis), P. palustre (Soyka, 1950), syn. nov. (Austria, originally described as Novickyella palustris Soyka, 1950, for which a lectotype is designated), P. arcticum Soyka, 1956, syn. nov. (Finland, originally described as P. arctica), P. brevicorne Soyka, 1956, syn. nov. (?Italy, originally described as P. brevicornis), P. globosiventre Soyka, 1956, syn. nov. (Poland, originally described as P. globosiventris), P. palustre Soyka, 1956, syn. nov. (Austria, originally described as P. palustris), and P. soykai Özdikmen, 2011, syn. nov. (unnecessary replacement name for P. palustre Soyka, 1956 nec P. palustre (Soyka, 1950)) are all synonymized under P. (Doriclytus) atratum. Primary types of the new synonyms, for which label data are provided, are illustrated with digital images. Females of P. (Doriclytus) atratum are usually fully winged but occasionally brachypterous, while males are always macropterous. Polynema (Doriclytus) atratum is for the first time recorded outside Europe, from the Asian part of the Palaearctic Region (Armenia) and the Nearctic Region (British Columbia, Canada). Numerous other records of this species, particularly from Finland and the adjacent countries, are given.
期刊介绍:
Annales Zoologici Fennici publishes mainly original research reports, but also in-depth reviews and commentaries on all aspects of animal ecology and evolution, and fields related to them. Our aim is to promote papers which focus on the interactions among various components in the past and present environments by using integrative and cross-disciplinary approaches. This may be achieved by employing tools from different fields of research, such as (but not restricted to):
ecology and paleoecology,
molecular ecology and phylogeography,
conservation biology, human-induced contemporary evolution and wildlife management,
animal behaviour and interactions (including recognition systems and mechanisms),
paleontology (except systematics and taxonomy) and evolution,
bioenergetics.
