It seems you have some entries remaining in civicrm_group_contact
which point to the deleted civicrm_group
entry?
You can confirm this with a query to look for group contact entries which point to a missing group.
-- Show contacts who belong to a group that doesn't exist.
SELECT *
FROM civicrm_group_contact
WHERE group_id NOT IN (SELECT id FROM civicrm_group);
If entries are found with that query, you can clear them out (or update them to point to the new group, or export those contact IDs, or ...).
-- Standard disclaimers apply; back up your DB before doing this!
DELETE
FROM civicrm_group_contact
WHERE group_id NOT IN (SELECT id FROM civicrm_group);
If updating, you'll want to avoid creating duplicate entries by reassigning group_id without checking for existing group additions.
