Description
Tymmophorus gelidus Dasch (Fig. 5 A)
Russia, Kuril islands: Paramushir Island, Northeast corner of island; N50°43.92' / E156°08.24', 0 4. VIII. 1997, leg. T. I. Ritchie. 1♀.
Although very similar in coloration to the widespread Tymmophorus obscuripes (Holmgren), this Northern species is distinguished by the short antennae, two strongly coriaceous bands starting at the notauli and continuing towards the scutellum, and some additional characters (see Dasch, 1964a). This species has been described from Canada and Greenland and has recently been reported from Northern Europe (Klopfstein, in press). Its presence on the northern Kuril island of Paramushir suggests a circumpolar distribution.
Holarctic; new for Russia and the Eastern Palaearctic.
