Sycophila pistacina (Hymenoptera: Eurytomidae): A valid species
European Journal of Entomology 105 (1), 137-147
Abstract: Sycophila pistacina (Rondani), which was previously synonymized with Sycophila biguttata (Swederus), is revalidated. Morphological, morphometric and molecular data confirm its status as a separate species. Diagnostic characters are provided for distinguishing it from S. biguttata. The nomenclature of the S. biguttata complex is updated.
