039B87F18B02C61DFF616633B994033A.taxon	discussion	Comments. Parapiophila atrifrons is widespread in northern Canada and the northern United States (Washington, Idaho, Maine) (Melander & Spuler 1917; McAlpine 1977). It is also known from the Palaearctic region (McAlpine 1977; Ozerov 2004 b). Steyskal (1964) suggested that Allopiophila calceata might be conspecific with Parapiophila atrifrons but that examination of more specimens would be required. We examined 185 specimens of both species from CNC and LEM. The only reliable difference between A. calceata and P. atrifrons is the shape of the tip of the pregonite: one round and one pointed tip in P. atrifrons; two pointed tips in A. calceata (McAlpine 1977). The male genitalia are otherwise identical, and the minor difference in the pregonite may not be enough to justify two species. Parapiophila nitidissima (Melander & Spuler) has variation in the shape of the pregonite tip (Steyskal 1975). There is variation in the colour of the fore tibia in some specimens, but such variation is seen in multiple species of Parapiophila (e. g., P. vulgaris (Fallén), P. fulviceps (Holmgren), P. kugluktuk). In addition to morphological evidence, there was almost no divergence in DNA barcodes (658 bp of CO 1) between five specimens of P. atrifrons and A. calceata from Ontario, Quebec and the Northwest Territories in LEM (Barcode of Life Database numbers: BOLD LYMAA 315 – 14, 316 – 14, 319 – 14, 320 – 14, 321 – 14) identified by S. Rochefort based on morphological characters and compared with types of P. atrifrons and original descriptions of both species. Based on morphological and molecular evidence, we consider A. calceata a junior synonym of P. atrifrons.	en	Rochefort, Sabrina, Wheeler, Terry A.

McAlpine (1977) listed the species as Holarctic, but that was probably based on unpublished Nearctic records of NIS specimens in CNC.

039B87F18B05C618FF6161B4BDF402CE.taxon	discussion	Comments. Parapiophila kugluktuk keys to Parapiophila vulgaris (couplet 12) in McAlpine’s (1977) key. Parapiophila kugluktuk differs from P. vulgaris in that the mid and hind femora and tibiae are yellow, and the fore tarsus, and sometimes fore femur, are black. Males of P. kugluktuk lack two teeth on the posterior margin of sternite 6 that are present in P. vulgaris (Fig. 9). Parapiophila pseudovulgaris Ozerov also keys to this couplet and is similar to Parapiophila kugluktuk. These two species differ in that P. kugluktuk usually has syntergite 1 + 2 yellow. The distiphallus of P. pseudovulgaris is larger in diameter than that of P. kugluktuk and is hairy (Fig. 10). These three species should be identified with caution because of intraspecific colour variation within species. Some Parapiophila vulgaris specimens may have pale legs and may be mistaken for P. kugl uktuk or P. pseudovulgaris. In addition, some P. kugluktuk specimens have syntergite 1 + 2 dark, in which case, they look similar to the two other species. Dissection of male genitalia is recommended to reliably identify the three species (Figs 7 – 11). Females of P. vulgaris with dark legs can be distinguished from female P. kugluktuk and P. pseudovulgaris, which never have mostly black legs. Otherwise, females of the three species should be identified with caution.	en	Rochefort, Sabrina, Wheeler, Terry A.
