Microvelia buenoi


Subspecies
Some authors recognize two subspecies, but this is not generally accepted. However, there are morphological differences between the nearctic and the palearctic populations and I therefore support the recognition of these two groups as separate subspecies. I recognize the following subspecies:
(1) Microvelia buenoi buenoi Drake, 1920
(2) Microvelia buenoi umbricola Wroblewski, 1938

Only the subspecies umbricola occurs in Germany.
