Genus Micromorphus Mik, 1878

Notes. Palaearctic species of Micromorphus are very similar in habitus, distinguishing mainly by hypopygium morphology ( Grichanov, Viklund, 2007; Bickel 2022). For example, M. minusculus differs from other species in rather long thick bristle on surstylar arm and relatively short distoventral epandrial lobe of hypopygium ( Negrobov 2000: Fig. 9 ). M. mesasiaticus hypopygium is characterized by angular cercus bearing simple setae, relatively narrow and subequal in length surstylar arms and distoventral epandrial lobe ( Negrobov 2000: Fig. 8 ; Grichanov, Viklund, 2007: Fig. 2 ).
