Atractodes angustipennis Förster, 1876 View in CoL
With the presence of a closed areolet, a long and slender habitus (including the first tergite) and the shape of their propodeum Atractodes spp. strongly resemble Mesoleptus spp. (see below). The lateral crease of the second tergite is shorter however, and the metasoma of the females is compressed ( TOWNES, 1970a). The genus has been thoroughly revised by Rejio Jussila in several papers.
Atractodes angustipennis needs to be keyed carefully with JUSSILA (2001). It belongs to the group with a smooth and unpunctuated mesopleuron and the tarsal claws as long as or only slightly longer than their arolium. Its presence in the Netherlands could be expected with confirmed reports from all neighbouring countries (FAUNA EUROPAEA).
