Balázs, A. - Haris, A.: Further investigation on the sawfly fauna (Hymenoptera: Symphyta) of Cerová vrchovina Upland in Slovakia
82 Natura Somogyiensis Discussion This year 281 specimens of 75 species were collected. The detected species richness of Cerová vrchovina increased up to 113 species. Although it is a solid number, it is pretty far from the real species richness of this region. Dominant species The dominant species is Allantus (Emphytus) didymus (Klug, 1818) with 57 males and 2 females collected by Malaise trap. This high number of this species is not typical at all. Allantus didymus Knw. is generally sporadic, not common. It seems, the Malaise trap had special attraction to the males of this species. The high density of Eutomostethus punctatus (Konow, 1887) with 22 males and 1 female were even more interesting, since this species is rare in the Carpathian Basin and we have only 2 records from Slovakia, see for details the rare species entry in this paper. Also surprising the high detected density of the sporadic Athalia rufoscutellata Mocsáry, 1879 with 10 females, 5 males. From the species with high density captured this year, only Macrophya montana (Scopoli, 1763) and Euura myosotidis (Fabricius, 1804) are frequent in Slovakia (and also in Europe) with 14 males, 2 females and 11 females, 3 males, respectively. These species, in total: 127 specimen makes the 45% of the total 281 specimen collected in this season. Rare species Rhogogaster genistae (Benson, 1947). From Slovakia, it is only known form Cicov (Csicsó), the high number of specimens captured in Gemerské Dechtáre (Détér): Nagymál-oldal is surprising. Other records from the Carpathian Basin: from Flungary: Nagykovácsi, Mórahalom, Pécs; from the Czech Carpaths: Bílé Karpaty PLA: NNR Certoryje, NR Huté, from Transylvania: Homoródszentpál (Sanpaul), Ivó: Ivó patak (Izovare), Szászka (Sasca Montana). Widely distributed European species (Figs. 7 and 8). Macrophya teutona (Panzer, 1799). Widely distributed, but rare species. We have records from Trencín (Trencsén), Vieska nad Zitavou, Devínska Kobyla (Pozsony: Dévény), Cicov (Csicsó), Ivanka pri Dunaji (Pozsonyivánka), Jakubov (Nagyjakabfalva), Pernek, Stefanová (Istvánkirályfalva), NPR Devínska Kobyla (Pozsony: Dévény), NPP Devínska hradná skala, PR Ostrov Kopác (Kopács sziget) and Slavnica (Szalonca). From Hungary, it is known from Kőszegi Mts., Nagykovácsi, Gézaháza, Szentgál, Nagyvisnyó, Ómassa, Simontomya, Kóspallag and Nadap. From Transylvania, it is known from Bongárd (Bungard), Resicza, Selimbar and Nagyszeben. We have indefinite record from Subcarpathia. We have further data from Styria (Weinburg) and from the Polish Tatras: Droginia. It is a widely distributed European species (Fig. 9). Eutomostethus punctatus (Konow, 1887). Known occurences from the Carpathian Basin: from Austria: Wolfs a. Neusiedlersee; from Slovakia: Sastín (Sasvár) and PR Jurské jazero (Bratislava: Sväty Jur, Pozsony: Szentgyörgy); from Hungary: Zempléni hegység, Nagyvisnyó, Istvánkút, Csörötnek, Szenta, Berzence, Kaszó, Tarany, Vízvár and Nagyrákos. Rare in Slovakia, sporadic in Hungary. Palaearctic species: It occurs in Europe and Asia (China) only, it hasn’t been recorded from North Africa yet.
