Thank you, Andrzej.

Is there any key for european/palaearctic species of this genus?

There are some old keys made by Czerny (1927) and Hackmann (1970) and for the Central European taxa a one made by me (Woźnica 2014). There are some species described after 1970 (especially from Spain by Carles-Tolra and not yet keyed out...).
