Abstract
Aegomorphus wojtylai n. sp. is described from Poland. Biology of the
new species and key to European species of Aegomorphus HALDEMAN is given.
The genus Aegomorphus HALDEMAN, 1847 comprises three species in Europe:
A. clavipes (SCHRANK, 1781) (Palaearctic), A. krueperi (KRAATZ, 1854) (Greece)
and A. francottei SAMA, 1994 (France, Macedonia, Montenegro, Bulgaria, and
Romania). Recently another species has been described from Asia Minor:
A. planiusculus HOLZSCHUH, 1998, which in general resembles A. clavipes. These
species used to be treated as Acanthoderes SERVILLE, 1835, but SAMA (1994)
separated Aegomorphus HALDEMAN, 1847 from Neotropical and Central American
species with type species A. daviesii (SWEDERUS). The overall habitat of
A. clavipes and A. francottei is frequently very similar and determination can
sometimes be quite challenging. ALLEMAND et al. (2002) presented a combination
of characters enabling separation of A. clavipes from A. francottei. Especially the
shape of parameres was shown to be a useful diagnostic feature. In the present
paper a new species of the genus Aegomorphus HALDEMAN, 1847 is described from
Poland based on clear differences in adults morphology and in the biology of the
species. The key to adults of all European species of Aegomorphus is included.
