Comments.
Stenetra hungarica
belongs to a group of five species that have a head and mesosoma with thin, inconspicuous dark pilosity and the stigma of the stigmal vein comparatively narrow; differences from between species are shown in the key in couplets 5–8. Females of
S. hungarica
are also similar to those
S. californica
, as is discussed under the latter species.
