Extract

Three species of Photis Krayer are recorded from British and Irish waters. P. pollex Walker is re-established as a distinct species, synonymous with P. macrocoxa Shoemaker which becomes a junior synonym. A key to the British and Irish species is given, together with figures and descriptions of P. pollex and P. reinhardi. P. tenuicornis which is doubtfully recorded from these waters is also figured.
