Although the hosts of other Sterictiphora species, as far as they are known, are all woody species of Rosaceae, S. longicornis was recorded by Macek (2012) as having been reared from Carpinus betulus L. All of the specimens which we collected in Bulgaria were netted within woodland dominated by Carpinus. The previously recorded range of this species is mainly in Central Europe, with a single record from " Yugoslavia " (Taeger et al. 2006). The latter record is based on 1 ♂, Serbia, Beograd, Avala, 500 m, 26.03.2001, leg. Z. Nikolic, det. A. Taeger (Z.

D2FF8454B010418E513DD9193C2DAD11.taxon	materials_examined	Bulgarian material. Varna: 1 ♂ (DEI-GISHym 88775), Tsonevo 5 km S, 100 m, 42.982 N, 27.451 E, 06.04.2018. 1 ♀, locality as previous, 08.04.2018. 1 ♀ (DEI-GISHym 88802), Staro Oryahovo 2 km SW, 120 m, 42.976 N, 27.787 E, 08.04.2018. 1 ♂, locality as previous, 09.04.2018. 1 ♀, 1 ♂, Goren Chiflik 1 km SW, 40 m, 43.001 N, 27.621 E, 13.04.2018. Empria parvula has an extensive distribution in Europe (Taeger et al. 2006) and the Palaearctic (Sundukov 2017; Taeger et al. 2018). According to morphological characters and genetic data, the species is very closely related to E. pravei. The only clear difference between them is the colouration of the legs in the adults. Legs in E. parvula are usually mostly black with small pale areas, but occasionally the hind tibia can be basally 2 / 3 whitish or yellowish. Nevertheless, the metafemur appears to be always completely or nearly completely black in E. parvula (Fig. 32). In E. pravei, femora are apically and tibiae basally extensively yellowish (Fig. 33). There could be differences also in penis valves, but because of the variation within E. parvula, the differences are not always clear (Figs 24 - 27). The valviceps seems to usually expand basally less in E. parvula than in E. pravei (Figs 24 - 27). Host plants and at least colouration of larvae are not different between E. parvula and E. pravei (Figs 34, 35). Based on the sequence data of three genes that we currently have, E. parvula does not form a monophyletic group, particularly because an E. parvula specimen sampled from Bulgaria is closer to E. pravei than to other E. parvula specimens (from Estonia, Greece, and Russian Far East) (Figs 16, 36). Ignoring morphological evidence, our genetic data could be interpreted as indicating either that E. pravei is a synonym of E. parvula, or that E. parvula consists of more than one species. Because in Bulgaria we found E. pravei and E. parvula in the same places at the same time and never observed overlap with regard to leg colouration, we consider E. pravei to be a distinct species. Although the existence of more than one species under the name E. parvula cannot be excluded, the data is also consistent with a single species exhibiting large genetic variation, perhaps connected with the significantly larger population size in E. parvula (distributed throughout the Palaearctic) compared to E. pravei (possibly restricted to areas not far from the Black Sea and south of the Caspian Sea). In other words, non-monophyly of E. parvula could be because of incomplete lineage sorting (maintaining of ancestral polymorphisms) due to large population size (e. g. Degnan and Rosenberg 2009). More specimens and genes of both species should be sequenced or mating experiments done to decide more reliably about species boundaries in this case.	en	Liston, Andrew, Prous, Marko, Macek, Jan (2019): On Bulgarian sawflies, including a new species of Empria (Hymenoptera, Symphyta).

Burgas: 1 ♂ (DEI-GISHym 88758), Primorsko 4 km NW, 20 m, 42.300 N, 27.729 E, 04.04.2018. 1 ♀, locality as previous, 10.04.2018. Varna: 3 ♀ (including DEI-GISHym 84166), 3 ♂ (including DEI-GISHym 88817, DEI-GISHym 88735), Staro Oryahovo 2 km SW, 120 m, 42.976 N, 27.787 E, 09.04.2018. 1 ♀, locality as previous, 11.04.2018. 2 ♂, Goren Chiflik 1 km SW, 40 m, 43.001 N, 27.621 E, 13.04.2018. The specimens were collected in woodland, from the herb layer, at places where a Geum species (probably Geum urbanum L.) was rather abundant. Of other herbaceous Rosaceae, Fragaria? viridis Weston, and Rubus fruticosa L. agg. were commonly present. Female DEI-GISHym 84166 was sleeved on a potted Geum plant, taken from the collection locality, on which it then laid eggs in the leaf-blade (Fig. 37). Several larvae (Fig. 35; https: // sdei. de / ecatsym / ecat _ bild. php? NameNr = 1003703 & DateiName = 25774. JPG) were reared to maturity on this plant. Empria pravei was described from two female syntypes (one in ZIN, examined by MP) from Stavropol (Dovnar-Zapolskij 1925). This locality, in the North Caucasus, lies outside the area treated by Taeger et al. (2006) as " Europe ". Other published records are from Armenia and Iran (Sundukov 2017). The species is very close to E. parvula (see discussion under that species). The record from Mongolia (Zombori 1972) is incorrect due to misidentification of E. mongolica (Konow, 1895). Empria pravei might be restricted to areas not far from the Black Sea and south of the Caspian Sea.	en	Liston, Andrew, Prous, Marko, Macek, Jan (2019): On Bulgarian sawflies, including a new species of Empria (Hymenoptera, Symphyta).

Previously only recorded in northern and central Europe (Taeger et al. 2006). Filipendula ulmaria (L.) Maxim. was the only known host plant (Heidemaa and Prous 2006), but this was absent at both of the above Bulgarian localities, whereas F. vulgaris was rather abundant. Therefore, it seems likely that F. vulgaris is also a host.	en	Liston, Andrew, Prous, Marko, Macek, Jan (2019): On Bulgarian sawflies, including a new species of Empria (Hymenoptera, Symphyta).

The above specimens are unusually coloured. Abdominal terga (1 -) 2 - 5 (- 6) are more or less pale, including the normally black areas surrounding the pale unsclerotised patches (Fig. 38). The corresponding sterna are also more or less pale (Fig. 39). In life, the pale areas are whitish, and more conspicuous than in the pinned specimens, where the colour has become rather brown. No females were collected, so we cannot state whether this sex also exhibits unusual coloration in south-eastern Bulgaria. Empria tridens has a wide Palaearctic distribution (Prous et al. 2011 b). Penis valves are not distinguishable from other E. tridens and genetic data (based on one male DEI-GISHym 88776, Fig. 16) does not indicate the existence of an additional species either (based on three genes, closest specimens are always other specimens of E. tridens that were studied by Prous et al. 2019).	en	Liston, Andrew, Prous, Marko, Macek, Jan (2019): On Bulgarian sawflies, including a new species of Empria (Hymenoptera, Symphyta).

Swept from low vegetation containing much Filipendula vulgaris. The females of Endelomyia filipendulae are morphologically not easily separable from those of E. aethiops (Gmelin, 1790) using the ovipositor characters illustrated by Lacourt (1998). However, these species have clearly different COI barcodes (Schmidt et al. 2017) and different host plants: respectively, Filipendula vulgaris and Rosa species (Liston et al. 2006). Males of E. filipendulae were previously unknown and those of E. aethiops are rare. As far as we are aware, the penis valve of E. aethiops has not been figured. The penis valve of the Bulgarian E. filipendulae specimen is illustrated in Figure 40. Endelomyia filipendulae was previously only known from France, Germany, and Italy (Schmidt et al. 2017).	en	Liston, Andrew, Prous, Marko, Macek, Jan (2019): On Bulgarian sawflies, including a new species of Empria (Hymenoptera, Symphyta).

We collected a total of 27 ♀ and 12 ♂ at various localities in Burgas, Sliven, and Varna provinces, mostly swept from Acer campestre L., the only known host plant. Hinatara nigripes is only known from central and southern Europe (Taeger et al. 2006). The apparent abundance of the species in Bulgaria contrasts strongly with its rare and sporadic occurrence on the northern edge of its range, such as in Germany (Liston et al. 2012).	en	Liston, Andrew, Prous, Marko, Macek, Jan (2019): On Bulgarian sawflies, including a new species of Empria (Hymenoptera, Symphyta).

Mostly swept from Prunus spinosa L., and once or twice from P. domestica L. growing among these. Chevin (1986) suggested that the host of H. cantoti is Prunus mahaleb L., which is a characteristic component of the woody vegetation of the two known French localities. However, Prunus mahaleb was not seen at the Bulgarian localities. Therefore, we suppose that the host is Prunus spinosa, from which we collected most of the specimens. Until now, this species was only known from the three female type specimens collected in northern France (Chevin 1986).	en	Liston, Andrew, Prous, Marko, Macek, Jan (2019): On Bulgarian sawflies, including a new species of Empria (Hymenoptera, Symphyta).

9408E84E51ADA8477D9E4B7B8C843E90.taxon	biology_ecology	Biology. Host plant unknown. All the Bulgarian specimens were swept from the newly opened buds or fresh leaves of one or more unidentified Quercus species, with the exception of the first male, which was swept from low vegetation just outside an area of mixed woodland. According to Konow (1885), the small series of syntype males was collected from flowers of Prunus spinosa. Subsequent authors (e. g. Benson 1959) have therefore suspected P. spinosa to be the host plant. According to our observations, Quercus seems to be a more likely host.	en	Liston, Andrew, Prous, Marko, Macek, Jan (2019): On Bulgarian sawflies, including a new species of Empria (Hymenoptera, Symphyta).

Muche (1973) published a record of a female identified as this species from Grossschoenau (Germany, Saxony). However, because he mentioned that this specimen possessed four cubital cells in the fore wing (unlike any specimens which we have seen), it seems likely that it was misidentified.	en	Liston, Andrew, Prous, Marko, Macek, Jan (2019): On Bulgarian sawflies, including a new species of Empria (Hymenoptera, Symphyta).

Muche (1977) briefly described a " Parna aff. tenella (Klug) " from a single female specimen collected on Mount Vitoscha.

Adults are morphologically similar to S. consobrina (Klug, 1816), and most easily distinguished from that and other Sciapteryx species by the pale parts of fore wing pterostigma, costa, and subcosta (Figs 48, 49, 52, 53), as described in the key by Benson (1968). The Bulgarian specimens agree well with the original description of this species (Benson 1968), except for the following details: body length is 8 - 9 mm (as given also by Benson), but one male only 7 mm; labial and maxillary palps largely pale, but apical palpomeres more or less dark (Fig. 50) (Benson wrote only that the labial palps are yellowish white); distal margin of tergum 1 more or less pale, but entirely black in one female (Benson wrote that apical margins of all terga are more or less pale); outer margin of tegula more or less pale, and inside dark (Fig. 51) (Benson wrote that the " front half of tegula " is pale). The COI barcode region of DEI-GISHym 88746 shows a divergence of 5.3 % from the closest neighbour, Sciapteryx laeta Konow, 1891 (DEI-GISHym 4857). The host plants of most Sciapteryx species remain unrecorded, but because at least S. costalis and S. consobrina are known to use Ranunculus species as hosts (Lorenz and Kraus 1957; Benes 1960), we speculate that R. constantinopolitanus is the larval host of S. byzantina. Sciapteryx byzantina was previously known only from the type specimens, collected in European Turkey near Istanbul, and at Rize in north-eastern Turkey (Anatolia) (Benson 1968).	en	Liston, Andrew, Prous, Marko, Macek, Jan (2019): On Bulgarian sawflies, including a new species of Empria (Hymenoptera, Symphyta).
