Ungarn 1904 19 (1901): 191 (in key) and 195 (description) (in German) 9d, type locality: "Szeben" (=Nagyszeben in Hungarian and Sibiu in Romanian) in Transylvania (up to 1920 in Hungary, since 1920 in Romania), female lectotype (and two female + one male paralectotypes) in Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest; examined, syn. n. Papp 1966: 376 (in key) and 382 (redescription as valid species). Shenefelt 1978: 1565 (as valid species, literature up to 1966). Tobias 1986: 130 (as valid species, in key). Nomenclatural remark — It is unnecessary to change Marshall's species name B. dolichurus to B. monticola as it was done by Kokujev (1899: 2). The species name B. dolichurus differs in three letters from B. dolichoura by Cameron (1888: 176) which satisfies the nomenclatorial requirements concerning the creation of the taxon-names.

Body 3.6-3.8 mm long. Antenna as long as head and mesosoma combined and with 21-24 antennomeres (21:4 9, 22: 1 9, 24: 1 9; antenna of three females damaged). First flagellomere twice as long as broad, further flagellomeres progressively shortening so that penultimate flagellomere 1.5-1.55 times as long as broad. - Head in dorsal view (Fig. 19) transverse, 1.7(-1.6) times as broad as long, eye somewhat longer than temple, latter rounded. Ocelli small and elliptical, OOL twice as long as POL. Eye in lateral view 1.6-1.65 times as high as wide, temple beyond eye evenly and somewhat less wide than eye. Horizontal width of oral cavity 1.5 times wider than shortest distance between margin of cavity and eye. Malar space as long as basal width of mandible. Head polished. Mesosoma in lateral view 1.45-1.5 times as long as high. Notaulix either faintly distinct or (almost) indistinct. Prescutellar furrow narrow, shallow and finely crenulate. Mesosoma smooth and shiny. - Hind femur 3.6 times as long as broad medially (Fig. 20). Hind tarsomeres less strong, hind basitarsus five times as long as broad apically (Fig. 21). Fore wing about as long as body. Pterostigma (Fig. 25) 2.5-2.8 times as long as wide and issuing radial vein (r) from its middle (2.5: 3 9, 2.6:2 9, 2.8: 4 9). Marginal cell long, approaching tip of wing, cell along metacarp or 1-R1 1.4-1.6 times as long as pterostigma. Second submarginalcell log, 3-SR 1.6-1.8 times as long as 2-SR, 4-SR approaching tip of wing and 1.3-1.4 times as long as 3-SR. First discal cell less long, 1-M and 1-2CU(1) about equal in length or 1-M somewhat shorter than 1-2CU(1) (Fig. 22). Hind wing: vein cu-a of subbasal cell feebly bent (Fig. 23). Metasoma as long as head + mesosoma combined. First tergite (Fig. 24) 1.3-1.4 times as long as broad behind, pair of spiracles before middle of tergite, beyond spiracles two sides of tergite (sub)parallel, margin of scutum smooth or, less usually, finely subcrenu-
