F. Brodo 1994: The Subgenus Tipula (Tipula) in Finland and Estonia. - Entomologica Fennica 5: 49-52.

Only two species in the subgenus Tipula occur in Finland and in Estonia: paludosa Meigen, 1830 and subcunctans Alexander, 1921. Their distributions in Finland are mapped and their flight periods are compared. The erroneous inclusion of T. oleracea Linnaeus, 1758, to the Finnish and Estonian faunas is based on conflicting species concepts employed by different authors.
