Abstract: 119 sawfly species were reported from Külső-Somogy. Seven rare species were captured: Apros thema austriacum (Konow, 1892), Dolerus (Poodolerus) quadrinotatus (Bíró, 1884), Birka (Birka) annulitarsis (Thomson, 1870), Empria hungarica (Konow, 1895), Harpiphorus lepidus (Klug, 1818), Hinatara nigripes (Konow, 1907) and Pachynematus (Larinematus) imperfectus (Zaddach, 1876). New color variation of Dolerus (Poodolerus) quadrinotatus (Bíró, 1884) is described. Keywords: Hymenoptera, Symphyta, fauna, Külső-Somogy, Hungary, Dolerus quadrinotatus (Bíró, 1884), new color variation Introduction The first species was reported from this region as early as 1900 (Mocsáry, 1900). Látrány Puszta Nature Reserve Area, investigated in 2003, is also part of this region (Haris, 2003). 87 Symphyta species were reported from here. Haris, 1998, 2001 and Roller and Haris, 2008 also contain high number of sawfly species from Külső-Somogy (Fig. 1); finally, sporadic data we may find in Móczár and Zombori 1973; Zombori 1982 and 1990. Methods and material We spent 15 days in April and 5 days in May and 1-1 days in June and August, with collecting on 41 sampling sites. The early collecting season started very adversely reasoned by the extreme weather conditions. There was a snowfall at the end of March (although in the mid of January, the temperature reached even the plus 11°C), furthermore early April was rainy. Therefore the species richness was low. We collected 496 specimens of 95 species. Our collection was augmented by earlier captured and still unpublished specimens collected by Zsolt Józan and György Rozner, few specimens by Gyula Sáringer and Ottó Merkl. This additional material consists of 115 specimens of 62 species. For identification, Zhelochovtsev’s work on the sawflies of the European part of the former USSR (Zhelochovtsev 1988) was consulted. We also used some recent revi-ISSN 1587-1908 (Print); ISSN 2062-9990 (Online)
