Allomacrus longecaudatus (Strobl, 1903) ( figs 3–4 )

Material. Ukraine: Transcarpathian Region : Chornogora, Sheshul 6–7 km NE of Kvasy, 48.1572 N, 24.3637 E, 1450 m, subalpine zone, sweeping, 16– 18.06.2012, 1 ♀ (Varga) ( SIZK) .

Diagnosis. The species from Ukraine is characterized by the largely granulate body, including face, mesoscutum and metasomal tergites 1–2; relatively wide, more-orless flat yellow clypeus; complete occipital carina; propodeum with strong lateromedian longitudinal carinae reaching well defined area apicalis; fore wing with vein 3 rs-m present; fuscous hind coxae, trochanters and femora; weakly upcurved female ovipositor, about 0.9 times as long as the hind tibia length.

Remarks. Schwarz (2003) also metioned several collected Allomacrus longecaudatus specimens marked as variation of the nominal taxon. The status of these specimens is still unclear. The specimens have generally darker hind femora and black tegulae in combination with stronger sculptured propodeum and fore wing with vein 3 rs-m indistinct.

D i s t r i b u t i o n. Europe; previously recorded from Austrian Alps ( Schwarz, 2003), Germany ( Riedel et al., 2021), first record for Ukraine.
