Aspöck et al. 1991 (mon); Oswald and Penny 1991 (cat, nom); H. Aspöck et al. 2001 (anncat); H. Aspöck 2002 (biol, paras); Haring et al. 2011 (phyl); U. Aspöck et al. 2012 (fig: phyltree); H.

Lesna Navás, 1915b (odescr) [type species by original designation: Raphidia adanana Albarda, 1891]: H. Aspöck et al. 2001 (anncat).

Taxonomy and systematics.

H. Aspöck et al. (1991). Dichrostigma is a markedly differentiated genus. In a molecular phylogeny analysis ( Haring et al. 2011) it has emerged as the sister group of Tjederiraphidia and both are the sister of Raphidia . Dichrostigma comprises four species, which can easily be differentiated also by eidonomic characters.

Biology and ecology.

Larvae soil-dwelling. Development two years. Last hibernating stage: full-grown larva. Adults: IV-VII. Euryoecious. In light pine forests as well as in habitats with deciduous trees or bushes only, in altitudes from sea level to 1800 m.

Distribution.

Central-, E-, SE-Europe, Anatolia, Near East. One species occurs on Mediterranean islands.
