New record

SWEDEN: 1 ♂, 1 ♀, Malmö, Bunkeflostrand, Malaise trap, 16 Jul.–1 Aug. 2009, leg. B.W. Svensson (MZLU).

Distribution

Norway, Finland, Russia, Estonia, Great Britain, Ireland, Belgium, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, France, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, Croatia, Hungary, Romania, Ukraine (Crimea), Bulgaria, Spain, Gibraltar, Algeria, Turkey (Dominiak & Szadziewski 2010).

Biology

The specimens were collected in an area with shore meadows on the west coast in the south of Sweden. The larva inhabits shallow water bodies; both natural and artificial and preimaginal stages are very tolerant of desiccation and temperature fluctuations (Zilahi-Sebess 1931; Valkanov 1941; Disney 1975).

Remarks

The male keys out as D. bilineata in Dominiak (2012). The associated female has the subgenital plate with broad lateral processes and a more hearth-shaped notum in contrast to the isosceles triangularshaped notum of D. bilineata shown in Dominiak (2012).
