"Taschenberg;" Taschenberg applied the name caliginosu^ to Gravenhorst's male 

 and validated the name Phyyadeiion corrnptor for Gravenhorst's female. Frilli 

 (1975) selected Gravenhorst's male as the lectotype of caliginosus, leaving 

 corrnptor as the valid name for P. caliginosus in the sense of Thomson. 



A single species of Holarctic distribution is known; it was revised by Townes (1963) to include 

 four subspecies, the European D. corrupter corrnptor, the Japanese D. corrnptor atripes 

 Townes, and two Nearctic ones.

 corruptor maturus (Provancher). Que. s. to Ga., w. to w. Ont. and possibly Alta. Host: Clytus 

 ruricola (Oliv.). The Alta. record is based upon a male from Edmonton, and the 

 distinction between the Nearctic subspecies is so far based only upon females.
