Metriocnemus sibiricus Lundstrom

Description

Metriocnemus sibiricus (Lundström)

Arctomyia sibirica Lundström, 1915: 19.

The lectotype and 9 paralectotypes have been redescribed and the species transferred to Metriocnemus by Saether (1995: 48). Arctomyia Lundström, 1915 (type species by monotypy: A. sibirica) has thus become a junior synonym of Metriocnemus van der Wulp, 1874.
