Abstract

Morphological differences between three Palaearctic species of Polylepta Winnertz — P. borealis Lundström, P. guttiventris (Zetterstedt) and P. zonata (Zetterstedt) — are discussed and detailed genital figures for males and females are given. Polylepta meridionalis Bechev, 1990 is shown to be a junior synonym of Polylepta zonata (Zetterstedt, 1852).
