Neumania (Neumania) imitata Koenike, 1908

Material examined.

Portugal, Porto • Lousada, Parque Molinológico e Florestal de Pias , 41.268°N, 8.256°W, 170 m a.s.l., 1 Sep. 2023, leg. Ferreira, Sousa, Cruz-Oliveira & Girão, 1 ♂ (sequenced) GoogleMaps .

Remarks.

The examined male in our study keyed to Neumania imitata following Gerecke et al. (2016) and forms a unique BIN ( BOLD: AFV 0268). The p - distance between this BIN and its nearest neighbour, BOLD: ADF 7924, which includes specimens of N. imitata from the Netherlands, was estimated at 8.65 %, indicating the need for taxonomic revision of this species.

Distribution.

Europe; rare, reported from France, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, and Montenegro. New for Portugal.
