Menacanthus camelinus (Nitzsch [in Giebel], 1874)

Host: Lanius minor Gmelin, 1788 .

Ref.: Balát (1977) as Menacanthus brevidentatus Blagoveshtchensky, 1948 .

Location: Zemplínska Široká—Rebrín, 6 Aug. 1959 (Balát Coll., MMBC slide numbers 1491, 1492-5x) .

Notes: Balát (1977) recorded Menacanthus brevidentatus —now a junior synonym of M. camelinus (see Price 1977: 210)—from Slovakia without a host association. Considering that Lanius minor is the type host of M. brevidentatus and that Balát’s Coll. contains specimens from this host, we can safely assume that the host of Balát’s record is Lanius minor .
