Reevaluation of species richness in Winnertzia (Diptera, Cecidomyiidae, Winnertziinae), with descriptions of 37 new species from Sweden, Peru and Australia Author Jaschhof, Mathias 0000-0003-3447-1620 Author Jaschhof, Catrin 0000-0002-1030-0934 mjaschhof@yahoo.de text Zootaxa 2020 2020-08-11 4829 1 1 72 journal article 8695 10.11646/zootaxa.4829.1.1 04b19d7f-1d74-41ec-b657-9b57f47826f9 1175-5326 4402757 7B34E058-03B4-44D0-AC4E-065B010172E1 Winnertzia graduata Spungis Diagnosis. A small to medium-sized, brown Winnertzia , whose male genitalic structures are specific to this species, as follows ( Jaschhof & Jaschhof 2013 : fig. 38A–B). A good character is the ninth tergite whose posterior portion is narrow and bilobed, the lobes being darkly pigmented and separated by a deep U-shaped indentation. The gonocoxal synsclerite resembles that of W. curvata , the differences being that in W. graduata the bulge of the medial bridges is more pronounced, and the dorsal apodemes are slightly longer. The gonostyli of both species are also largely similar, except for the somewhat greater length in W. graduata . The tegmen is on the basal two thirds sharply contoured, while the apex, which is suddenly narrowed, is completely membranous and faint; the parameral apodemes are conspicuously broad. The basal edge of the aedeagal bulge is vaguely indicated rather than clear-cut. Discussion. Given the striking conformity in male genitalic structures, W. graduata and W. curvata may be regarded as sister species. If the strongly emarginated ninth tergite is an indicator of relationship, then W. incisa , a new species described below, should be closely related to this species pair. Distribution in Sweden . Specimens studied here of W. graduata , altogether 45 males , were collected in nine biological provinces in Sweden, from Halland to Lule Lappmark, which equals the distribution of W. curvata . Material studied. Specimens listed by Jaschhof & Jaschhof (2013) and as follows.
