Remarks

• Systematics: Tang (1992: 173) synonymized T. agropyronicola with T. mongolicus Danzig. However, Danzig (1997a) removed the former from synonymy, regarded it as a distinct species and indicated rhese distinguishing characters. ( T. agropyronicola has tubular ducts on the dorsum and differs in the composition of the cerarii). Danzig & Gavrilov-Zimin (2015) stated that T. agropyronicola is similar to T. artemisiarum but differs from it in the smaller number of cerarii (1 pair only) and in the presence of a circulus.
• General Remarks: Good description and illustration of the adult female given by Tang & Li (1988).
