Treatment

Subgenus Eusynaldis Zaykov & Fischer, 1982

Type species.

Eusynaldis varinervis Zaykov & Fischer, 1972 , by monotypy (Figs 6 View Figure 6 , 7 View Figure 7 ).

Material examined.

Holotype Regetus balcanicus [= Aspilota (Eusynaldis) globipes ] Former Yugoslavia: • ♀, Kosovo, Mts. Sar, Brezovica , 900–1200 m, 20–23. v. 1971 (Papp & Hortatovich leg.) ( HNHM) [Hym. Typ. No. Mus. Budapest 7878] .

Diagnosis.

Subgenus Eusynaldis shares all diagnostic characters of Aspilota sensu stricto, except the absent vein 2 - SR of the fore wing.

Remarks.

Regetus Papp, 1999 and Adelphenaldis Fischer, 2003 are junior synonyms of Eusynaldis Zaykov & Fischer, 1982 because both taxa are characterised by the same diagnostic features ( Zhu et al. 2017). Moreover, the study of the holotype of Regetus balcanicus Papp, 1999 (the type species of Regetus ) showed this species to be a junior synonym of Aspilota (Eusynaldis) globipes ( Fischer, 1962) ( Peris-Felipo and Belokobylskij 2019) .
