B. italica sp. nov. , B. collini Tuomikoski , and B. intermedia Lundbeck ) characterized by 1–2 long dorsal setae on the third antennal segment, 2– 3 setae on palpus and both phallic hooks present and long. All four species of this complex may be easily identified in the male sex according to the key and genitalia. Bicellaria austriaca has two rather strong unequally long and unequally bent phallic hooks and relatively broad hypandrial processes with long setae on the apical part. We believe that females may be also distinguished from other species of the B. austriaca complex according to characters given in the key despite finding no specimens in copula. To be certain faunistic records based solely on females are omitted here. Distribution. Europe, from Italy and Bulgaria to about 60° N latitude in Scandinavia. Remarks. The species was described (and hypandrium illustrated) on the basis of many specimens from the mountains of Central and Southern Europe. Chvála (1983) redescribed this species and provided illustrations of the face, antenna, hind leg, genitalia, and identification of the holotype .
