Nematus melanodus Zaddach, 1884 in Brischke 1884: 133. Holotype ♂, probably destroyed (Blank & Taeger 1998). Type locality: Prussia? [leg. Andersch]. Synonymy by Konow (1895). Pteronidea brunnea Lindqvist, 1971b: 11. Secondary homonym of Nematus brunneus Norton, 1864 [= Euura brunnea (Norton, 1864)]. Syn. nov. Nematus brunnescens Vikberg, 1982: 63. Replacement name for Pteronidea brunnea Lindqvist, 1971. Diagnosis Its almost completely yellowish body and the structure of the lancet (apical sutures concave and overall inclined in basal direction, serrulae flat, setae present) enable identification of the females. Ventrally extensively pale body and shape of the penis valves enable reliable identification also of males.
