Materials examined. 1 male labelled ‘ Polypedilum insolitum India, West Bengal, Alipurduar, Duars (26.49, 89.53), Coll. T. Dutta, 4.xi.1983 ’; 2 males, labelled ‘ Polypedilum insolit u m, India, West Bengal, Alipurduar, BSN/ Duars (26.49, 89.53), Coll. T. Dutta, 20.viii.1984 ’. Remarks (Figure 10). The club–shaped apical foreleg and longitudinal medial elevation of the abdomen of P. insolitum and characteristic wing pattern markings and hypopygium structure leads us to conclude that P. insolitum is a junior synonym of Z. marmorata . Distribution. The species has wide distribution occurring in all the Old World zoogeographical realms except the Afrotropical region. The species is reported from Oriental China, Belgium, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Great Britain, Hungary, The Netherlands, and Sweden. The species Z. marmorata is for the first time reported from India in this study.
