Rosaceae: Spiraea spp. (L. N. Medvedev and Roginskaya 1988[11], L. N. Medvedev 1992[28]).

Remarks

The taxonomic status of Gonioctena nivosa, and its relationships to Gonioctena affinis and Gonioctena arctica has been disputed for a long time. Kraatz (1879a)[15] treated Gonioctena arctica as a synonym of Gonioctena nivosa. Székessy (1934)[7] synonymized Gonioctena arctica and Gonioctena nivosa with Gonioctena affinis, while Bechyně (1948)[20] established them as distinct species. Mohr (1966)[25] regarded Gonioctena affinis and Gonioctena nivosa as phylogenetically young group that are almost identical. Wilcox (1972)[33] treated Gonioctena arctica as a subspecies of Gonioctena nivosa. However, Chrysomela affinis Gyllenhal, 1808 is a junior homonym of Chrysomela affinis Fabricius, 1787, therefore Silfverberg (1977)[66] proposed the name Gonioctena decaspilota as the oldest available name. He again treated Gonioctena decaspilota and Gonioctena nivosa as distinct species. All these taxa have been confused until now by many authors (see list above). After examining all type specimens of the discussed taxa and many other specimens from the Holarctic region we conclude that all these taxa are conspecific. The shape of body and aedeagi from Europe, Siberia, Far East and North America are identical, although aedeagi and color patterns slightly vary even within the same population (Figs 31–54). Three type localities of Gonioctena nivosa are given in the original description: Kärnten, Berner Alpen and Switzerland. Due to the designation of lectotype, the restricted type locality becomes “Kärnten [= Carinthia in Austria]” (ICZN 1999[74]: Recommendation 74E). Six paralectotypes of Chrysomela affinis Gyllenhal, 1808 belong to Gonioctena linnaeana (Schrank, 1781). We examined the type of Phytodecta linnaeana bergrothi and found it is conspecific with Gonioctena nivosa. Phytodecta linnaeana bergrothi has been misidentified since its original description and is here synonymized with Gonioctena nivosa. The name Phytodecta linnaeanus bergrothi var. simplex published by Jacobson (1901[65]b) is infrasubspecific. It is available from Achard (1924)[37] who first used it for a variety of species, Phytodecta linnaeanus var. simplex (ICZN 1999[74]: Article 45.5.1). However, this name and its incorrectly proposed replacement name Phytodecta linnaeanus var. mutatus are removed from synonymy with Gonioctena linnaeana and are synonymized with Gonioctena nivosa based on the original description. Phytodecta nivosa var. cedehensis is for the Alpine specimen having black elytra with a large yellow marking at tip and is synonymized with Gonioctena nivosa.
We also examined the types of Phytodecta nivosa var. bicolor Heyden, 1883 and Phytodecta flavicornis var. limbatipennis Achard, 1924 and found that they are conspecific with Gonioctena flavicornis (Suffrian, 1851). Therefore, they are removed from synonymy with Gonioctena nivosa and are synonymized with Gonioctena flavicornis.
Several larvae were dissected from the female specimens collected in Norway and Transbaikalia, therefore this species is ovoviviparous (Fig. 67). The previous record of the occurrence of ovoviviparity by Notman (1921)[75] is based on misidentified Gonioctena notmani (Schaeffer, 1924).
