Comment: Oxypoda insidiosa PACE 1988 was synonymised with O. islandica by ASSING (2008). Since O. insidiosa had already been synonymised with O. dubiosa FAGEL 1960 by TRONQUET (1999), it follows that O. dubiosa, too, is a synonym of O. islandica . For a distribution map, illustrations of the genitalia, and a compilation of records see ASSING (2008).
