Tipula (V.) scripta species group

The scripta species group was proposed by Mannheims (1953), discussed by Savchenko (1960, 1964), with range of species revised by Starkevich & Podenas (2011, 2015). Males of scripta group are characterized by the following characters: gonocoxite horn-shaped, tergite 9 forming a pale yellow plate with posterior margin emarginated and anterior portion with transverse, elevated saucer. The members of the scripta group are distributed in the Holarctic and Oriental Regions. Tipula (V.) caroliniana Alexander, 1916 , T. (V.) longiventris Loew, 1863 , and T. (V.) tacomicola Alexander, 1949 are found in the Nearctic Region, T. (V.) subscripta Edwards, 1928 is found in the East Palaearctic and Oriental Regions, and the remainder of species are found in the Palaearctic: T. (V.) dhalma Starkevich and Podenas, 2011 , T. (V.) intermixta Riedel, 1913 , T. (V.) pallidicosta Pierre, 1924 , T. (V.) pallitergata Alexander, 1934 , T. (V.) scripta Meigen, 1830 and T. (V.) semivittata Savchenko, 1960 .
