Hipocrita atra – Type locality: “Arasagun-gol (Sajan)” according to original description, label on lectotype reads “Arasagun-go / Sajan” [Sayan Mountain range, Mongolia].

Figures I-2. Adult habitus of Dodia albertae ( I) (Ft. McMurray, AB) and D. tarandus holotype ( 2) (Caribou Mtns, AB).

Hyperborea kozhantshikovi – Type locality: “in montes Dzhugdzhuz [Dzhugdzhur], ad flum. Dzhelinda” [Dzhugdzhur Mountains, Dzhelinda River, eastern Siberia; near the head of the Aldan River according to Tschistjakov (1988)]. Described from 1 male and 1 female syntype; male lectotype (and four paralectotypes) designated by Tshistjakov and Lafontaine (1984) [ ZIN, genitalia slide no. 15,191; not examined]. Since only one male was included in the original type material, it is not clear which if any of the lectotype designations are valid. We follow Tschistjakov’s (1988) synonymy; he examined a genitalic preparation of the lectotype in his review of Figure 3. Dodia tarandus, live adult (Holmes Cross- Palaearctic specimens of D. albertae, and ing, AB). treated kozhantshikovi as a synonym of D. albertae albertae.
