Description

New occurrence records for two species of Hymenoptera Stephanidae are provided from several states of Europe. Stephanus serrator (Fabricius, 1798) is recorded for the first time for Portugal and with precise locality for Switzerland. Moreover, it is recorded for the first time in the following regions: Navarre (Spain), Wallonia (Belgium), Hesse, Berlin and Bavaria (Germany), Aosta Valley, Lombardy, Veneto, Abruzzo, Campania and Calabria (Italy), and Attica (Greece). Megischus anomalipes (Foerster, 1855) is recorded for the first time in mainland Portugal and Campania (Italy).

Sampling Description

Study Extent

The examined material originated from photographed specimens retrieved on the web (http://www.barcodinglife.org; http://www.entomologiitaliani.net; http://www.naturamediterraneo.com; http://www.inaturalist.org; http://www.galerie–insecte.org/galerie/fichier.php; https://observation.org; http://waarneming.nl. For each site, the following information is given: locality, geographical coordinates, date, number and sex of specimens, and author of the photo.

Sampling

For each locality, geographical coordinates are in decimal degrees (datum WGS84). The number of decimals varies according to the accuracy of the data. Uncertainty of the data (in metres or kilometres) was indicated according to the point-radius method (Wieczorek et al., 2004).

Method steps

Each record was identified or confirmed by the author.
