Key to European species of the genus Ameroseius View in CoL (male)
Males presented in the key herein were described in detail by Westerboer and Bernhard (1963), which are A. corbiculus and A. sculptilis (syn.: A. pulcher ). Later another two were described by Mašán (1998) – A. callosus and A. fungicola . Male of A. longitrichus was described by Kaczmarek and Michalski (1988), A. ulmi by Teodorowicz and Gwiazdowicz (2020) and A. georgei by Teodorowicz (2021).
