Introduction

Based on the paper of Benson (1954) a rare Dolerus species was misidentified by Haris (2019). The so far supposed male of Dolerus thoracicus (Falién, 1808) (replacement name: Dolerus blanki Liston, 1995) now belongs to Dolerus (Poodolerus) zhelochovtsevi Heidemaa & Viitasaari, 2009 based on genetic testings (Blank et al. 2009). Therefore, the communicated male in Haris (2019) is the male of Dolerus (Poodolerus) zhelochovtsevi Heidemaa & Viitasaari, 2009 (instead of Dolerus blanki Liston, 1995).

Material and methods

In 2019, the author identified 1938 specimens of 197 sawfly species from the collection of the Bakony Natural History Museum in Zirc, amongst these species was the one which represent new record for the Hungarian fauna.

For original identification Benson (1954) and Haris (2000) were consulted. This year, this species was checked again using Heidemaa and Vitasari, 2005 (original description of the species) and Macek et al. 2020.

Genitalia dissection and revision of the previously idenitfied species resulted new record for the Hungarian fauna, namely Dolerus (Poodolerus) zhelochovtsevi Heidemaa & Viitasaari, 2009.

For the discussion of distribution of sawflies, we consulted the book of Roller and Haris (2008) titled Sawflies of the Carpathian Basin, History and Current Research augmented by other faunistic records from the Carpathian Basin (Móczár 1947, Scobiola-Palade 1967, 1978, Perovic et al. 2006 and Smetana et al. 2010).
