Journal Title: Journal of Insect Biodiversity - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 7
Abstract
The species of the subfamily Poemeniinae Narayanan & Lal, 1953 of the Carpathians are reviewed. Neoxorides varipes (Holmgren, 1860), Poemenia collaris (Haupt, 1917), P. notata Holmgren, 1859, and the genus Pseudorhyssa Merrill, 1915 with two species, P. alpestris (Holmgren, 1860) and P. nigricornis (Ratzeburg, 1852), are recorded in the Ukrainian fauna for the first time. Diagnostic features and illustrations of species are provided. Seasonal dynamics and high-altitude zone distribution of Poemeniinae species in the Ukrainian part of Carpathians are discussed.
