The species (Fig. 12a, c) was recently described from the Gemer region in the central part of Slovakia ( Sevcik and Kurina 2011a ). No other records are available. New for the Fennoscandian fauna. Ecology The holotype male was collected from a "spring area in a young spruce forest, 1230 m (above sea level)" Sevcik and Kurina 2011b ). Finnish locality is a herb-rich riparian forest, dominated by deciduous trees. Taxon discussion The species is quite close to M. lastovkai Caspers, 1984 (Fig. 12b, d), a species that has been in the Nordic region reported from Sweden, Norway and Denmark ( Kjaerandsen 2015 ). Nordic material of M. lastovkai should be re-examined in order to check the potential confusion with M. gemerensis .
