Description

Examined material

1 ♂. The Netherlands, Amsterdam, Vondelpark 52.3578°N, 4.867°E. 13.VI.2019-12.VI.2019. Leg. Van der Meer, Marrit. ZFMK-TIS-2638072 (OR139009) [TXEX]. 1 ♂ same data except for 21.VI.2019-25.VI.2019. ZFMK-TIS-2638090 (OR139001) [ZFMK].

Diagnosis

Females of P. maynei are unknown. Males can be easily differentiated from other species in Panimerus by having more than 30 tenacula on the surstyli (less than 20 in other species), the distribution of the tenacula being scattered in the whole surface of the surstyli (other species in the genus have the tenacula restricted to the apex of the surstyli).

Genetics

Two specimens were successfully sequenced: ZFMK-TIS-2638072 (OR139009) and ZFMK-TIS-2638090 (OR139001). Both obtained sequences are identical.

Distribution

Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, The Netherlands (this publication, new record) and the UK. ( Vaillant 1972, Withers 1989, Vaillant and Withers 1992).
