Description

Orthocladius (Eudactylocladius) spitzbergensis (Kieffer, 1919)

Dactylocladius spitzbergensis Kieffer, 1919 in KIEFFER & THIENEMANN (1919: 116).

Material examined. 1 ♀ pinned, now mounted on slide, labelled ‘ Dactylocladius spitzbergensis // Greenland East 10.VIII.1926 // R.I.SC.N.B. 18.073 / Coll. et det. M. Goetghebuer’.

Comments. ASHE & O’CONNOR (2012) listed Dactylocladius spitzbergensis among nomina dubia probably in Orthocladius (Eudactylocladius). The examined female is from Greenland, not from the type locality (Spitzbergen, Cross Bay, Ebelthof harbour). It is very damaged, including the genitalia, which do not allow an accurate redescription or an evaluation whether Goetghebuer’s determination of this specimen was a correct identification of D. spitzbergensis. Therefore, no change in the generic placement and status is proposed here (see ASHE & O’CONNOR 2012).
