In Europa umfasst Eupontania die vesicator-, viminalis-, aquilonis- und crassipes-Artengruppen. Aus Nordeuropa werden 13 Arten der Eupontania-viminalis-Gruppe aufgeführt. E. brevicornis (Förster, 1854), sp. rev. und comb. n. (= Nematus congruens Förster, 1854, syn. n., Pontania carpentieri Konow, 1907, syn. n., Pontania pedunculi auct., nec Hartig), die Gallen an Salix cinerea L. hervorruft, wird in Finnland nachgewiesen und mit der eng verwandten E. arcticornis (Konow, 1904) verglichen, die Gallen an Salix phylicifolia L. bildet. Die Taxonomie und die Wirtspflanzen von E. pedunculi (Hartig, 1837) (= Nematus bellus Zaddach, 1876; Pontania gallarum auct. nec. Hartig) und E. gallarum (Hartig, 1837) (= N. aestivus Thomson, 1863, syn. n.; Pontania varia Kopelke, 1991, syn. n.; Pontania norvegica Kopelke, 1991, syn. n.) werden kurz diskutiert. E. pedunculi wird als Art betrachtet, die Gallen an verschiedenen Arten der Sektion Vetrix hervorruft, nicht aber an S. cinerea: Salix aurita L., S. caprea L., S. starkeana ssp. starkeana Willd. und ssp. cinerascens (Wahlenb.) Hultén (= S. bebbiana Sarg.). Der Status von E. myrtilloidica (Kopelke, 1991), die an S. myrtilloides L. in Finnland nachgewiesen wurde, bleibt unsicher. Die Wirtspflanze von E. gallarum ist Salix myrsinifolia Salisb. einschliesslich der ssp. borealis (Fr.) Hyl. Lectotypen werden festgelegt für Pontania arcticornis, P. phylicifoliae Forsius, 1920, P. viminalis var. hepatimaculae Malaise, 1920, Nematus brevicornis, P. samolad Malaise, 1920 (Wirtspflanze: S. lapponum L.), und P. pustulator Forsius, 1923. Für Nematus gallarum wird ein Neotypus aus Schweden, Uppland, festgelegt. E. acutifoliae baltica ssp. n. wird beschrieben aus Litauen, Estland, Russland, und Finnland, und E. collactanea rosmarinifoliae ssp. n. aus Finnland und Russland. Für 20 aus Nordeuropa beschriebene Eupontania-Arten werden die Wirtspflanzen aufgelistet, E. pustulator von S. pulchra, zum ersten Mal.StichwörterTenthredinidae, Pontania, Eupontania, sawflies, hostplants, Salix.Nomenklatorische Handlungenarcticornis (Konow, 1904) (Eupontania), Lectotype described as Pontania arcticornisbrevicornis (Förster, 1854) (Eupontania), Lectotype; spec. revocata described as Nematus brevicornisgallarum (Hartig, 1837) (Eupontania), Neotype described as Nematus gallarumpustulator (Forsius, 1923) (Eupontania), Lectotype described as Pontania pustulatorsamolad (Malaise, 1920) (Eupontania), Lectotype described as Pontania samoladbaltica Vikberg & Sinovjev, 2006 (Eupontania acutifoliae), sspec. n.rosmarinifoliae Vikberg & Sinovjev, 2006 (Eupontania collactanea), sspec. n.congruens Förster, 1854 (Nematus), syn. n. of Eupontania brevicornis (Förster, 1854)carpentieri Konow, 1907 (Pontania), syn. n. of Eupontania brevicornis (Förster, 1854)phylicifoliae Forsius, 1920 (Pontania), Lectotype now a syn. of Eupontania arcticornis (Konow, 1904); Lectotype design. by Kopelke (1991) was invalidhepatimaculae Malaise, 1920 (Pontania vinimalis var.), Lectotype now a synonym of Eupontania arcticornis (Konow, 1904)

Euura auritae and Euura cinereae are distinct species making spindle-shaped stem galls on Salix aurita and on Salix cinerea, respectively. Different morphological criteria and no-choice as well as multiple choice oviposition experiments have proved E. auritae and E. cinereae to be distinct species. Euura cinereae on S. cinerea is distributed at least over Southern Norway, Germany and Austria, but within its distribution area it may occur patchily. A recent paper doubted that the type specimens of E. cinereae had been reared from S. cinerea, but rather that they had been reared from S. aurita. However, as discussed in the present paper, they give no convincing evidence that E. cinereae occurs on S. aurita rather than on S. cinerea in Finland.

SynopsisThe paper deals with three problem areas in the taxonomy of British willows: (1) the widespread occurrence in Perthshire and neighbouring counties of an intermediate between Salix myrsinifolia Salisb. and S. phylicifolia L., apparently of hybrid origin, though growing in an area where typical S. phylicifolia has yet to be found; (2) the complex taxonomy of the British Sallows, where two common aggregate species, Salix cinerea L. and S. caprea L., are each represented by two segregates; a third, S. aurita L., may also comprise more than one segregate; all three species interbreed, as do the segregates within each aggregate; (3) the disputed identity of the Crack Willow, Salix fragilis L., and its nomenclatural implications.

AbstractSpecimens identified as Caryocolum proxima (Haworth, 1828) from Scandinavia and the U.S.S.R. have proved to be misidentified and without an available name. This species is described as Caryocolum blandelloides n.sp. and is differentiated from C. blandella (Douglas, 1852), C. proxima (Haworth, 1828), C. blandulella (Tutt, 1887), C. alsinella (Zeller, 1868), C. marmorea (Haworth, 1828), C. junctella (Douglas, 1851), C. albifasciella (Toll, 1936) and C. kroesmanniella (Herrich-Schäffer, 1854). C. proxima, recorded from Denmark, is new to the Scandinavian fauna. C. semidecandriella (Tutt, 1887) is a synonym of C. alsinella Zell. (n.syn.), and C. falellum Piskunov, 1975 is a synonym of C. albifasciella Toll (n.syn.). Gelechia manniella Zeller, 1839 the identity of which has been obscure, is placed in synonymy with C. marmorea (Hw.), and a lectotype of the former is designated. A lectotype of Phthorimaea subvicinella Hackman, 1946, is designated. The adults of the nine species are figured as are the male and female genitalia of the five first mentioned species; whereas references to figures of the genitalia are given for the rest. Information on host plants, life histories and collection methods is given, and the nomenclature of the involved species is discussed.

The paper presents first records of Pemphigus populi Courchet, 1879 (Hemiptera, Aphidoidea, Eriosomatidae) from Poland with a short description of the morphological characteristics of its fundatrix and fundatrigenia. Special attention is paid to the characteristics which distinguish this species from other Polish as well as the Central and North European representatives of this genus on poplars (Populus spp.). Information on the biology and distribution of P. populi in the world are given. A key to Central and North European species of Pemphigus , based on their galls formed on the primary host plants is also provided.

AbstractThree new European species of the large genus Aphis L., 1758 (Hemiptera: Aphididae) are described: Aphis jacetanasp. nov., which lives on Pimpinella saxifraga L. (Apiaceae) in the Pyrenees, Aphis orocantabricasp. nov., which lives on Gentiana lutea L. (Gentianaceae) in the Cantabrian Mountains, and Aphis zamoranasp. nov., which lives on Frangula alnus Miller (Rhamnaceae) on the northern Iberian plateau. We provide identification keys for Aphis species living in Europe on host plants of the families Apiaceae, Gentianaceae, and Rhamnaceae.
