description: <i>Pipiza accola</i> Violovitsh, 1985 (figs 1–5) M a t e r i a l e x a m i n e d. Ukraine. Kyiv Region: Irpin env.: 50.50 N 30.28 E, Lyubka River floodplain, 17.04.2016, 2 Ơ; idem, 50.50 N 30.27 E, 11.04.2017, 1 Ơ, 1 &amp;female; (A. Prokhorov); Kotsiubynske env., 50.47 N 30.30 E, clearing in mixed forest, 13.05.2016, 1 &amp;female; (M. Zaika). D i s t r i b u t i o n: southern Norway, Sweden and Finland, Germany (Lower Saxony, Baden-Würrtemberg), Poland, Russian Far East (Magadan Region, Khabarovsk Region, Amur Region, Primorsky Region), Iran (Wolff, 1998; Mutin, 2002; Kazerani et al., 2012; Vuji&amp;cacute; et al., 2013; Speight, 2017; Mielczarek, 2018); Ukraine (<b>first record</b>). D i a g n o s i s. <i>Pipiza accola</i> belongs to <i>P. luteitarsis</i> species group, which is characterized by the smooth hind femora without paired ventral, longitudinal ridges at the distal end, as well as ventral part of basoflagellomere reddish (Vuji&amp;cacute; et al., 2008). There are only four species in this group known in Europe: <i>P. accola</i>, <i>P. luteibarba</i> Vuji&amp;cacute;, Radenkovi&amp;cacute; &amp; Poli&amp;cacute;, 2008, <i>P. luteitarsis</i> Zetterstedt, 1843, and <i>P. quadrimaculata</i> (Panzer, 1804). <i>Pipiza accola</i> clearly differs from <i>P. quadrimaculata</i> by the narrow abdomen, absence of the pale spots on the tergite 3 and by lack of well defined marginal ridge of the abdomen. <i>Pipiza accola</i> is very similar to <i>P. luteitarsis</i> (fig. 6) and <i>P. luteibarba</i>, from which the <b>male</b> of <i>P</i>. <i>accola</i> (figs 1, 3) can be reliably distinguished from the features of genitalia (Vuji&amp;cacute; et al., 2008). The genitalia of the Ukrainian males of <i>P</i>. <i>accola</i> were dissected and compared with figures in Vuji&amp;cacute; et al. (2008, 2013). <b>Female</b> (figs 2, 4, 5) differs from <i>P. luteitarsis</i> by the sternite 5 noticeably wider than long (in <i>P. luteitarsis</i>, sternite 5 longer than wide). From similar <i>P. luteibarba</i> it differs by the basoflagellomere short, oval, slightly longer than wide (fig. 5) (in <i>P. luteibarba</i>, the basoflagellomere 1.5 times longer than wide), the frons broader than width of the eye at the level of the anterior margin of the pollinose lateral spots (dorsal view) (in <i>P. luteibarba</i>, the frons narrower than width of the eye at the level of the anterior margin of the pollinose lateral spots) (Vuji&amp;cacute; et al., 2013).
