Abstract: | The previously unknown pupa of Calamoceras illiesi Malicky & Kumanski, 1974 is described and illustrated, based on material collected from northwestern Turkey. It is compared with Calamoceras marsupus Brauer, 1865, the second species of the genus Calamoceras found in western Europe. The pupa of C. illiesi is very different from that of C. marsupus, in particular in having a flattened abdomen, the arrangement of the transversal fringes of the abdominal segments, the shape of the sclerotised hook plate of abdominal segment I, and the shape of the anal processes. |
