Doratura lukjanovitshi
Kusnezov, 1929: 177
Diagnosis.
The species is closely related to
D. gravis
; it displays similar but more slender styles (
Fig. 26H
) with the central tooth directed ventrad, and a very slim aedeagus (26D, E). The hind margin of the female pregenital sternite (
Fig. 20H
) is straight. In rare cases it displays a very indistinct median notch.
Distribution (
Fig. 59
).
We studied material from
Mongolia
and
Russia
(Central Siberia). Apparently, there are no records for further countries.
Remarks.
Kusnezov inserted
D. lukjanovitshi
in the original description near
D. ivanovi
(=
impudica
) and
D. stylata
. The identification of
Doratura
material from
Mongolia
by
Dlabola (1965)
as
D. lukjanovitshi
is correct. Dlabola figured the styles of this material, which resemble the styles of
D. gravis
. However, many specimens in his collection identified by himself as
D. lukjanovitshi
belong to
D. stylata
or
D. gravis
.
