A review of Palearctic <i>Teuchophorus </i>Loew (Diptera: Dolichopodidae) with an updated catalog and revised key to species
The genus <i>Teuchophorus </i>Loew, 1857 in the Palearctic Region is reviewed. It comprises 21 species including a new species <i>Teuchophorus israelensis </i>Grichanov, Negrobov et Selivanova<i> </i>sp.n. from Israel. The species is very close to <i>T. chaetifemoratus</i> Pollet et Kechev, 2007, differing from the latter in presence of 3-4 strong ventral bristles on mid tibia and ventral row of bristly hairs on hind tibia. An updated catalog and revised key to species of Palearctic <i>Teuchophorus </i>are provided.
