Askevold (1991) considered this to refer to the ovipositor of females in this genus. Alternatively Schenkling (1922) interprets eumares to mean easily moveable, but is uncertain to what this refers). 16. Plateumaris affinis (Kunze, 1818) Status: Notable B (Latin: affinis; neighbouring). L = (male), (female); Plate II, Figure 16. P. affinis is associated with various species of Carex growing at lake margins, sharing the same ecological requirements as P. discolor, Donacia impressa, thalassina and aquatica, all of which may be found together during May and June as, for instance, in vegetation dominated by various species of Carex bordering Burton Mill Pond, near Fittleworth, West Sussex. , like D. aquatica, is not attracted to the flowers of Carex as are D. impressa and thalassina, and is usually detected by sweeping or searching the leaves and stems of the sedges. 16 Plateumaris affinis (Kunze).
