A NEW CHECK LIST OF SWEDISH DOLICHOPODIDAE (DIPTERA)
Last updated: 27 April 2003
AN OLD CHECK LIST IS HERE

The last checklist of Swedish Dolichopodidae including 321 species was published not long ago (Grichanov, 2002). However, an intensive treatment of the collections of three main Swedish Museums (NHMS, ZML and ZMU) carried out recently has revealed 13 species new for the Swedish fauna (Grichanov, Hedström, 2003; Grichanov, 2003). Some taxonomic changes are also proposed. The author has excluded some synonymic names rarely used in the European literature. Several errors and misprintings of the previous list are here corrected. Now 334 species are known from the country. See also notes to the checklist.

Species marked below with an asterisk (*) are included in the checklist for the first time. The following new synonym is proposed in this paper:

Dolichopus simplexMeigen,1824

=Dolichopus modestusWahlberg,1850, syn.nov.

Lectotype and paralectotypes are designated here for Rhaphium discigerum Stenhammar. Subfamilies and genera within subfamilies are given in alphabetical order. Genera are not divided here into subgenera. A list of doubtful species and records is given in Grichanov (2002). Any correction and supplement to this list will be welcomed.

[1]Dolichopus diaphanus was earlier listed as doubtful species (Grichanov, 2002). 3 males and 6 females were found in the Fallén collection (drawer 28) inthe Swedish Museum of Natural History, Stockholm, and labeled as D. diaphanus Fll. Females examined are practically indeterminable; 1 male belongs to A.?lecocephala and 2 males to A. argentina. So, I consider this name as synonym of the last species.
[2] The species was in error placed in synonymy to C. gramineus in the previous list (Grichanov, 2002). Despite the very similar habitus of the two species, the subtriangular postpedicel and shape of aedeagus seem to be rather stable in C. angulicornis.
[3]D. propinquus is possible synonym of D. exiguus known by single female.
[4] Status of the name tibialis Zetterstedt needs revision.
[5]D. propinquus is possible synonym of D. exiguus known by single female.
[6]Holotype of D. modestus has been examined in the collection of the Swedish Museum of Natural History, Stockholm,X, Sm. / Fgs. / Type. Hypopygium is not small, but hidden inside the last abdominal tergites. Pedicel is not entirely yellow, but black at distal margin dorsally. D. simplexis very common in Europe and in Sweden particularly.
[7]Both excellens and thunebergi phenotypes are present in Sweden.
[8]M. bilineata was erroneously placed in synonymy to M. veles by Bickel (1985); my study of hypopygia of the two species has shown that it is a synonym of M. infumata.
[9]Both jacula and meridionalis phenotypes are present in Sweden, as well as intermediate forms.
[10]Both muralis and belgica phenotypes are present in Sweden.
[11]Both petrophila and petrophiloides phenotypes are present in Sweden, as well as intermediate forms.
[12]M. veles is possible synonym to M. infumata.
[13]Both pallipes and pallidus phenotypes are present in Sweden.

[14] Type material examined [ZMU].Lectotype [here designated]. ?, Uppsala Univ. Zool. Mus., Typsamlingen, nr. 1587b, Rhaphium discigerum Stenhammar [red label] / Porphyrops discigera Stenh., Det. L. Hedström; Paralectotypes: 1X, 1C, same labels with coll. Nrs. 1587a & 1587c.

Remark. Lectotype and paralectotypes are here designated in order to promote stability of nomenclature. Type material corresponds to original description of Porphyrops discigera by Stenhammar (1850) and redescription of Rhaphium discigerum given by Negrobov (1979). Syntypes have been found in the Stenhammar’s Collection together with female holotype of Dolichopus pectinitarsis Stenhammar.
[15]R. discolor Zetterstedt, 1838 was in error placed in synonymy to R. consobrinum Zetterstedt, 1843 (Grichanov, 2002). The first name has apperantly priority against the second one.
[16]Both pulicarius and desoutteri phenotypes are present in Sweden, as well as intermediate forms.
[17]Both pallipes and pseudospicatus phenotypes are present in Sweden.
