Eremotylus marginatus (Jurine, 1807) View in CoL (Fig. 41)

Eremotylus marginatus is an impressive species often caught with light traps. Its antennae are orange and the wing membrane yellowish. Its metasoma is testaceous and black apically. Therefore, it is often confused with Ophion ventricosus Gravenhorst, 1829 . While colour patterns are less reliable, it can be distinguished from the latter by its wing venation. In Eremotylus fore wing vein RS+2R is abruptly bent near the base of the pterostigma and ramellus is absent (Fig. 41). Additionally, the lower edge of the mesopleuron has a weak, blunt, projection (BROAD, 2012). The species is uncommon but seems to be vastly underreported in the past. Hosts are unknown. First report for Belgium; confirmed in the Netherlands.
