Forewing with marginal vein shorter than or at most as long as costal cell. Antenna of ♀ with 3 anelli, the first two discoid, the third large … funicle and clava each with 3 segments. Antenna of ♂ with ventral plaque of scape placed in upper half; with 2 anelli, 4 funical segments and 3 claval segments. … Malar sulcus with oblong or sublinear fovea below eye. Genitalia of ♂ very elongate, as in Sigmophora .”</p><p>Identification: The first key to species of Kolopterna was published by Graham (1987). More than 30 years later, Kostyukov and Kosheleva (2018) produced a key for 13 Palearctic species, without illustrations. Our illustrated key includes 14 species from the Palearctic and Oriental regions; females are known for all species, while males are known for seven species only.</p><p>Hosts: Asphondylia punica Marchal, 1897 ( Diptera, Cecidomyiidae) on Atriplex halimus L.
