Ceroputo vaccinii (Danzig) View in CoL comb. rev.

Puto vaccinii Danzig, 1978: 125 View in CoL .

Ceroputo vaccinii View in CoL ; Tang, 1992: 393. Change of combination. Puto vaccinii View in CoL ; Ben-Dov, 1994: 432. Revived combination.

We examined two paratypes and another three adult females, all from Russia on Vaccinium View in CoL . On the nine antennae examined, we could find only a single intersegmental sensillum between segments III and IV on one antenna. Between segments IV–V there is also a single sensillum on one antenna. Between segments VI and VII there are no sensilla on two antennae, one sensillum on six antennae and two sensilla on one antenna. The eyes are slightly smaller than the length of the first antennal segment. There are two campaniform sensilla on each surface of each trochanter and basal spurs are absent from all claws. The cerarii are on sclerotised plates with each of the anal lobe cerarii possessing 6–8 lanceolate setae. Other cerarii each have 4–6 setae but occasionally one or two cerarii may have only two setae. Tubular ducts are present on the frons but not in a group as in Puto View in CoL . Disc pores, each with 5–8 loculi, are present on the venter but are absent from the head and thorax; pores with 5 loculi are located only around the vulva. There are two sizes of trilocular pores, with dorsal pores larger than ventral pores.

This species is similar to C. pilosellae View in CoL but differs mainly in lacking disc pores on the head and thorax. We agree with Tang (1992) that its correct placement is in Ceroputo . Ben-Dov (1994) listed this species under Puto View in CoL , although he was aware of the recombination by Tang (1992), presumably because he had doubt as to its generic placement.
