Type species:
Asyntactus rhogaleus
Marshall, 1898
.
This
is rare monotypic
Western
Palaearctic genus of the tribe
Alysiini
which is recorded in several
Western
European countries (
Yu
et al.
, 2012
) and only recently (
Belokobylskij & Kostromina, 2011
) was found in the
Central Urals. Study
of a large amount of material from the local population allowed us to discover significant variation of sculpture and colouration in
A. rhagoleus
Marshall, 1898
, and as result we synonymized
Asyntactus sigalphoides
Marshall, 1898
with the
type
species of this genus (
Belokobylskij & Kostromina, 2011
). The agromyzid fly
Selachops flavocinctus
Wahlberg, 1844
is host record for this genus for the first time.
