Capnia bifrons
(
Newman, 1838
)
drumming
types
sensu
Rupprecht 1997
In addition to drumming signals of the real
Z. bifrons
(under the name Capnor) and the
type
of
Z. rupprechti
and
Z. kovacsi
(under the name Capbif),
Rupprecht (1997)
described further four mating call
types
from Western Europe that are undoubtedly refer to undescribed species. In the PZC material we find morphologically distinct specimens from the
Jura
Mts., Dr. Gilles Vinçon informed us about another distinct form found in the French Massif Central. These are possibly referred to by Rupprecht’s drumming
types
. Further comparative studies will be needed to establish the identity of these forms.
