Measurements: Length: 2. 0 – 2.3 mm. EL/EW = 1.90; PW/PL = 1.33; PW/EW = 0.84.

Diagnosis: Head, pronotum and scutellum dark brown to black, elytra red to reddish brown. Palps and legs pale reddish brown. Labrum with V-shaped notch on anterior margin. Middle of frons moderately densely punctate, lateral regions of frons densely and rugosely punctate.

Pronotum sub-hexagonal, with anterior margin relatively concave and lateral margin denticulate. Pronotal disc convex, rather densely punctate near anterior and posterior margin, along midline and at posterior foveae. Elytra elongate, convex, parallel-sided, apically distinctly truncate in male, very slighlty sinuate in female. Explanate elytral margin notably narrow, almost absent ( Figs. 38a,g View FIGURES 38 ). Male metatibiae not dilated or very slightly dilated distad, and with a fringe of very long setae along mesal face of distal half.

Taxonomic position and diagnostic characters: Easily diagnosed from other " Haenydra " by the peculiarly truncate male elytra ( Fig. 38a View FIGURES 38 ), and the peculiar shape of male genitalia, characterized (in lateral view) by bifurcate apex of the main piece and by a short and thick flagellum ( Fig. 38d View FIGURES 38 ).

Taxonomic remarks: Referring to Calabrian and NE Sicilian populations of H. truncata , the latter occasionally characterized by darker melanic habitus of elytra and male genitalia, Pretner (1930) described a subspecies named H. truncata falzonii . On the basis of the shape of male genitalia, identical to those of H. truncata , H. truncata falzonii was later considered a junior synonym of H. truncata s. str. (Audisio & De Biase 1995). Furthermore, Calabrian and NE Sicilian populations are molecularly not differentiated from other Italian populations (Trizzino unpublished data); a certain degree of genetic divergence was otherwise observed in N Iberian populations ( Ribera et al. 2011, Trizzino et al. 2011).

DNA data suggested close relationships between H. truncata and the sister species H. muelleri + H. czernohorskyi ( Trizzino et al. 2011b) .

Habitat: This species usually lives under stones in fastflowing streams of varying substrate typologies, above 50 m a.s.l. HER: Heterotopic species.

Measurements: Length: 2.3 – 2.5 mm. EL/EW = 1.58; PW/PL = 1.42; PW/EW = 0.71.

Diagnosis: Body dark brown to black. Palps and legs pale reddish brown. Labrum with a deep V-shaped notch on anterior margin. Clypeus shiny, frons densely and rugosely punctate.

Pronotum sub-hexagonal, relatively wide, with anterior margin relatively concave and lateral margin denticulate. Pronotal disc convex, rather densely punctate near anterior and posterior margin, along midline and at posterior foveae. Elytra distinctly elongate in male, markedly wide, flattened and almost completely parallel-sided in both sexes. Explanate elytral margin wide and long, reaching the apex. Elytral apex conjointly rounded in male, subtruncate in female ( Figs. 38b,h View FIGURES 38 ). Male metatibiae very slightly dilated in the inner edge of distal third, and with fringe of relatively long setae along mesal face of distal half.

Taxonomic position and diagnostic characters: Easily diagnosed from most other " Haenydra " by the peculiarly elongate and flattened male elytra ( Fig. 38b View FIGURES 38 ), and the markedly wide (almost square-shaped) female elytra ( Fig. 38h View FIGURES 38 ). Male genitalia, characterized by an obliquely truncate apex and by a relatively short and thick flagellum ( Fig. 38h View FIGURES 38 ), suggest somewhat relationships among this species and the pair H. truncata + H.muelleri , bringing together a complex of species distinctly differentiated from each other on the basis of external morphology, but clearly related on the basis of male genitalia, and also confirmed by molecular data ( Trizzino et al. 2011b).

Habitat: This species usually lives under stones, mostly in small streams with carbonatic substrates, between 10 and 500 m a.s.l. HER: eu11; eu45.

Pronotum sub-hexagonal, convex, distinctly wide, posteriorly sinuate and with posterior angle right. Pronotal disc convex, rather densely punctate near anterior and posterior margin, along midline and at posterior foveae. Elytra elongate, markedly convex, not parallel-sided, oval-shaped. Explanate elytral margin wide and relatively long, reaching apex. Elytral apex conjointly rounded in male, with a V-shaped sutural notch in female ( Figs. 42a,e View FIGURES 42 ).

Male mesotibiae slightly dilated in the inner edge of distal third, male metatibiae markedly dilated in the inner edge of mesal third, and with a distinctly bushy fringe of very long setae along mesal face of distal half.

A revision of this complex is in press ( Stanković and Jäch 2012), with the description of a new species from Macedonia on the basis of a single male and a single female. However, combining the individual variability and structural complexity characterising male genitalia of species belonging to this clade, we believe that further molecular studies and the morphological examination of more specimens from the Balkans and Pannonian areas, would be fundamental in order to make final conclusions about the complex.

Chorotype: PYRE (Pyrenean Endemic).

Distribution: EUR: FR-FRA, SP ( Fig. 47 View FIGURE 47 ).

H. bitruncata is endemic to both French and Spanish slopes of Pyrenees. A single female was reported as having been collected in a locality in Central Spain (Ávila; Balfour-Browne 1978; Valladares & Montes 1991);this citation is very doubtful, and it is probably due to a partial labelling mistake/interpretation. In fact, the locality of

Riera de Merles, situated south of Barcelona, most likely corresponds to the headwaters of this river, in the Begueda, i.e. within the range of the other records of the species. (I. Ribera personal communication; see Appendix 2 for all the detailed known localities).

DNA data: For this species, mtDNA data (COI, 16S rDNA, tRNA leu and NAD1) are available in GenBank ( Ribera et al. 2011; Trizzino et al. 2011b).

Clypeus shiny, frons sparsely punctate in middle portion, rugosely punctate nearby the eyes. Pronotum sub-hexagonal, convex, distinctly wide in middle portion, posteriorly sinuate and with posterior angle right. Pronotal disc convex, rather densely punctate near anterior and posterior margin, along midline and at posterior foveae. Elytra relatively elongate, narrow and convex, parallel-sided in the proximal half, apically convergent in both sexes.

Male pro-, meso- and metatibiae not dilated. Male metatibiae with fringe of relatively long setae along mesal face of distal half.

Taxonomic position and diagnostic characters: Easily diagnosed from other members of the H. heterogyna complex ( Table 1) by the flattened and explanate elytra ( Fig. 48b View FIGURES 48 ), the peculiarly variable female elytra apices ( Figs. 48n,o,p View FIGURES 48 ), and the male genitalia, characterized (in lateral view) by a wide and peculiarly shaped apex, and a notably short and relatively thick flagellum on the left side of apical third ( Fig. 48f View FIGURES 48 ).

Habitat: This species usually lives under stones in small fastflowing streams, mostly in forests with broadleaved trees, and chiefly in Fagus forests, between 100 and 1300 m a.s.l. HER: Heterotopic species.

Chorotype: ITAL (Italian Endemic).

Distribution: EUR: FR-FRA, IT-ITA, SZ ( Fig. 49 View FIGURE 49 ).

H. heterogyna s.l. (see below) is distributed in SE France (Maritimes Alps), in Switzerland (exclusively in SE valleys hydrographically belonging to Italian mainland) and in peninsular Italy (also including Elba Island), southwards to N Calabria (see Appendix 2 for all the detailed known localities).

Taxonomic remarks: On the basis of the huge apparent variability of female elytral apex (and partially also of aedeagal apex or of male elytral apex), several taxonomists introduced a series of species/subspecies/varieties within the nominal taxon Hydraena heterogyna ( Ganglbauer 1901; Fiori 1904; Binaghi, 1960; Janssens 1967; Jäch 1989). More recently, Audisio & De Biase (1995) remarked that, despite the great and discontinuous variability of the female elytra, the shape variations of the aedeagal apex (see Figs. 8,10,11,12, 13 in Audisio & De Biase 1995) apparently follow a relatively gradual geographic cline from East to West and from North to South along the Italian Peninsula, thus suggesting that all the different female morphotypes may belong to a single and variable species.

Recent molecular data (Ribera et al. unpublished data), also supported by new morphological evidence (Trizzino et al. unpublished data), seem to suggest that a pair of cryptic and probably parapatric species (whose respective distribution and taxonomic/ nomenclatorial characterization remain to be more clearly disentangled by further molecular and morphological analyses), could actually be present in Peninsular Italy within “ H. heterogyna s.l. ” (Trizzino et al. unpublished data). Waiting for further molecular analyses, which are nearing completion, in this contribution we prefer to maintain H. heterogyna s.l. as a single variable species.

DNA data: For this species, mtDNA data (COI, 16S rDNA, tRNA leu and NAD1) are available in GenBank ( Ribera et al. 2011; Trizzino et al. 2011b).

Male habitus: Fig. 50a View FIGURES 50 ; male genitalia: Fig. 50b View FIGURES 50 ; female: unknown.

Type locality: Greece, Preveza province , Lefkada Island, road between Lefkada and Spanochori (“île de Leucade ”: Janssens 1965) .

Primary types: Holotype at ISNB.

Measurements: Length: 2.3 mm. EL/EW = 1.68; PW/PL = 1.30; PW/EW = 0.77.

Diagnosis: Body dark brown to black, palps and legs pale reddish brown. Labrum with V-shaped notch on anterior margin. Clypeus shiny, frons densely punctate in middle portion, rugosely punctate nearby the eyes.

Pronotum sub-hexagonal, relatively wide, posteriorly sinuate and with posterior angle right. Pronotal disc convex, rather densely punctate near anterior and posterior margin, along midline and at posterior foveae. Elytra elongate, distinctly convex, parallel-sided in the proximal half, apically convergent. Explanate elytral margin relatively narrow and long, not reaching apex. Male elytral apex acuminate ( Fig. 50a View FIGURES 50 ). Male pro-, meso- and metatibiae not dilated, male metatibiae with fringe of relatively long setae along mesal face of distal half.

Taxonomic position and diagnostic characters: This species is currently known only from a single male specimen (Holotype; ISNB) collected by Janssens in 1961. As reported by recent authors ( Jäch 1989; Audisio et al. 1996), the type locality of H. sappho was lately destroyed by human activity. Furthermore, the male genitalia of the holotype was badly prepared, and subsequently crushed, by Janssens between two glasses, thus the illustrated aedeagus could slightly differ in terms of shape and spatial orientation ( Fig. 50b View FIGURES 50 ; see also Janssens 1965 and Audisio et al. 1996).

The damaged aedeagus, combined with the impossibility to collect additional specimens (vane attempts have been made by different specialists in several rivers and small streams both in Lefkada Island and in the contiguous areas of the W Greece mainland), preclude making definitive relationships among this species and the remaining " Haenydra ".

However, mainly based on the shape of male genitalia, Audisio et al. (1996) hypothesized a relationship between H. sappho and species of the H. tatii complex (proposing a " Hydraena sappho group"). Otherwise, M. Jäch (personal communication 2010; see also Ribera et al. 2011), mainly based on external morphology, and taking into account that the aedeagal distal lobe of the HT is deformed, suggested possible affinities between H. sappho and members of the H. excisa complex ( Table 1).

Habitat: The HT of H. sappho was collected in a small stream with siliceous substrate.

Chorotype: GRNW? (NW-Greek Endemic).

Distribution: EUR: GR-Lefkada (Fig. 51).

Note: Excluding a labeling mistake by Janssens, this species is probably extinct.

DNA data: No data.
