Diagnosis. P. alceae can be recognized from the combination of mostly brownish yellow frons and face, facial carina low, with entire white microtrichose band, scutum and scutellum subshining, finely rugulose, with dull greenish sheen, fore metatarsus mostly white; preglans of phallus with chain of partly fused black spines ( Fig. 31 a). It can be differentiated with certainty from superficially similar P. azurea , P. hendeli sp. n. and P. orinigra sp. n. from the characters as given in the Key (couplets 27–30) and especially by the structure of the phallic preglans ( Fig. 31 a).

Description. Head ( Figs. 29–30 ). Frons 1.2 times as long as wide, brownish yellow, rarely to dark brown, satin shining, very sparsely and finely, almost inconspicuously setulose, with round parafrontal microtichose spots and two pairs of calluses (oval swellings) posterior to its middle and slightly concave anterior half. Vertical plates usually black, with greenish or dark blue sheen, bearing 2 pairs of black, short, slightly reclinate orbital setae. Ocellar triangle black.

Face reddish yellow to reddish brown, dorsal half of facial carina and antennal grooves entirely gray microtrichose without bare areas. Lunule shining orange to brown. Facial ridge, parafacial and gena shining orange or brown, gena 1/3 times as high as eye; only parafacial with narrow white microtrichose stripe along anteroventral eye margin. Epistome brownish yellow, rarely (a specimen from Czech Republic) dark brown with greenish sheen. Occiput black, with yellowish brown area behind ocellar triangle and postgena; orbit between posterodorsal eye margin and row of black postocular setae with very narrow white microtrichose stripe or without it. Medial vertical seta half as long as frons width, 1.5 times as long as lateral vertical and 3–5 times as long as ocellar, orbital and postocellar setae. Antenna reddish brown, greyish microtrichose; flagellomere 1 rounded apically, 1.5 times as long as wide; arista bare, yellow in basal 1/4, remainder black. Clypeus orange to brown. Palp brown to black, microtrichose, with moderately long black setulae. Mouthparts black.

Thorax ( Fig. 30 ). Scutum and scutellum brown to black, with dull green metallic sheen, finely rugulose, except antepronotum, posterior surface of postpronotal lobe and notopleuron, as well as pleura strongly shining; posterodorsal part of anepisternum shagreened; supra-alar area and tympanal fossa matt black, postscutellum black, gray microtrichose; postero-ventral margin of scutellum without microtrichose area. Mesonotal scutum with short medial row of setulae in anterior portion, pair of regular dorsocentral and intra-alar rows, all setae very fine and short, black; pair of hair-like acrostichal and dorsocentral seta. One postprononal, 2 postsutural supra-alar, one intra-alar and one postalar setae strong, black.

Scutellum with golden sheen, with very fine and short black setulae and 2 pairs of black scutellar setae.

Wing. Entirely hyaline, with pale yellow veins; cell r4+5 almost closed, not forming petiole; postero-apical extension of cell cup 1.5 times as long as vein A1+CuA2, and 4 times as long as transverse section of vein CuA2. Costal vein from middle of costal cell to middle of r1 cell with alternate thickened and thin setae in antero-dorsal and antero-ventral rows. Length: 2.5–4.8 mm.

Legs. Black except fore tarsus with basitarsomere creamy yellow in basal 3/4, mid- and hind tarsi yellow; all setae black; fore femur postero-ventrally with 5–7 thickened, but rather short setae in apical half.

Abdomen. Both tergites and sternites brown or black-brown, with very weak bluish or greenish reflection, with black setulae; femaleabdominal tergite 2 with pair of matt gray spots (= dimple-like structures) laterally; tergite 5 in both male and female conspicuously shagreened, subshining black, sometimes with deep blue reflection.

Male postabdomen brown to black; epandrium as on Figs. 33–34 , phallus with stipe twice as long as preglans and glans; preglans with chain of partly fused black spines ( Fig. 31 a); glans as on Figs. 31 and 32 .

Female terminalia: eversible membrane ( Fig. 35 ) with two pairs of long taeniae and membrane between them cowered by fine monodentate scales; posterior part of membrane with fine multidentate scales; aculeus ( Figs. 36– 37 ) 6.5–8 times as long as wide at base; vagina ( Figs. 38–39 ) with simple, rod-like ventral receptacle; 3 spherical spermathecae ( Fig. 40 ).

Distribution: Widespread in the Palaearctic Region, except North; introduced to the Nearctic, Neotropical and Australasian Region as synanthropic species; quite rarely in the Afrotropical Region.

Biology. Larvae feed in rotting date palm stems, dung and dung/vegetal compost. It is believed to be widespread with cattle due to shift of its original larval feeding in the date palm stems to the dung. Remarks. One of the most common ulidiid species in the temperate and arid zones of the Palaearctic Region. Type specimens of most nominal species have not been examined, but since it is the only species occurring in Middle and Northern Europe, its identity is clear.
