“…The genitalia were transferred to glycerin for further dissection and examination. The specimens were identified using the following literature: van Veen (2010), Anooj et al (2020), andSpeight et al (2021). Images for the dorsal habitus were taken using Nikon D850 digital camera with a Nikon MICRO NIKKOR 105 mm lens, while the male sternum IV and the genitalia photographs were taken with a D850 digital camera using a Nikon SMZ18 microscope.…”

“…Terminology of adult morphology follows Cumming & Wood (2017). The distribution map was prepared by using the present collection and previously reported data from neighboring countries (Burgio & Sommaggio, 2002;Khaghaninia et al, 2010;van Eck, 2011;Ghorpadé, 2015;Grković et al, 2015;Samin et al, 2016;El-Hawagry et al, 2017;Smith et al, 2017;Mutin & Barkalov, 2018;Anooj et al, 2020;Dawah et al, 2020;Speight et al, 2021;Torretta et al, 2021;Heimburg et al, 2022).…”

An updated checklist of the genus Eumerus Meigen, 1822 is presented from Pakistan along with two new country records, i.e., Eumerus vestitus Bezzi, 1912 and Eumerus sogdianus Stackelberg, 1952. Eumerus sogdianus is native to Central and Southern Europe, but recorded from east to Central and Southern Asia, and Eumerus vestitus is native to the Afrotropical region, but recently also recorded from India. Both species are collected from northern areas of Pakistan – the extreme edge of the western Himalayas, where a significant diversity of hoverflies has been reported in recent studies. A brief diagnosis, identification key, and a taxonomic remark on known Pakistani Eumerus species are presented. A distribution map and detailed photographs of the newly recorded species are also presented.

The hoverfly genus Eumerus Meigen, 1822 (Eristalinae: Merodontini) comprises 250+ described species, of which 36 are reported from the Iberian Peninsula. The high species diversity linked to the low degree of morphological differentiation between some species, which is even lower in females, leads to a high taxonomic complexity in this genus. The aim of this work is to confirm the morphological and molecular validity of an undescribed species of Eumerus, which is widespread in the Iberian Peninsula. The new species is described and compared with similar species. The genitalia of the new species are similar to those of Eumerus clavatus Becker, 1923 and Eumerus uncipes Rondani, 1850, but also share some features with Eumerus nudus Loew, 1848. The COI-5’ barcode is provided for the new taxon and analysed together with those of other named Eumerus sequences/species publicly available online. In the light of the morphology and barcoding data, the systematic position of the new species is discussed.
