Integrative taxonomy of Central European Planetella (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) indicates high species diversity, intraspecific variation and low host specificity Author Ševčík, Jan Department of Biology and Ecology, Faculty of Science, University of Ostrava, Chittussiho 10, CZ- 710 00 Ostrava, Czech Republic; e-mails: sevcikjan @ hotmail. com, burdikova @ seznam. cz, sopuch. krystof @ gmail. com & Silesian Museum, Nádražní okruh 31, CZ- 746 01 Opava, Czech Republic Author Hippa, Heikki Zoological Museum, Biodiversity Unit, University of Turku, FI- 20014 Turku, Finland; e-mail: heikki. hippa @ gmail. com Author Burdíková, Nikola Department of Biology and Ecology, Faculty of Science, University of Ostrava, Chittussiho 10, CZ- 710 00 Ostrava, Czech Republic; e-mails: sevcikjan @ hotmail. com, burdikova @ seznam. cz, sopuch. krystof @ gmail. com Author Sopuch, Kryštof Department of Biology and Ecology, Faculty of Science, University of Ostrava, Chittussiho 10, CZ- 710 00 Ostrava, Czech Republic; e-mails: sevcikjan @ hotmail. com, burdikova @ seznam. cz, sopuch. krystof @ gmail. com Author Skuhravá, Marcela Bítovská 1227 / Author Bruun, Hans Henrik Department of Biology, University of Copenhagen, Universitetsparken 15, Copenhagen, Denmark; e-mail: hhbruun @ bio. ku. dk text Acta Entomologica Musei Nationalis Pragae 2023 2023-12-30 63 2 413 450 http://dx.doi.org/10.37520/aemnp.2023.026 journal article 10.37520/aemnp.2023.026 1804-6487 E961B014-4A0D-482B-A005-6D7B58D60B03 Planetella producta ( Meigen, 1830 ) Cecidomyia producta Meigen, 1830: 267 . Type locality: Germany . Type material. HOLOTYPE : J, without antennae and abdomen (coll. MNHN Paris), not studied. Comments. In the original description, the adult male is described as similar to P. cucullata but rather different and substantially larger. Antennae stated to have 24 segments, most probably meant just nodes. The specimen was collected at the end of June in a forest. The figure in MORGE (1975) shows brownish orange coloration, scutum produced over the head, unicolorous abdomen, antennae with 2 + 12 segments, flagellomeres binodose. The high-resolution photographs of the holotype are available at the web pages of MNHN Paris (https://science. mnhn.fr/taxon/species/planetella/producta). The male type (No. MNHN-ED-ED867) is without antennae and without the abdomen. The thorax is light orange brown, scutum with three longitudinal stripes and strongly produced above the head. MORGE (1975) provided colour plates of the types of Meigen and P. producta is figured as a light brown to orange species with 12 binodose flagellomeres. As this combination of characters is found in many species of Planetella , this species remains unrecognized.
