Notes. The names presented as synonyms were proposed for the hosts A. claytoniae Robertson, 1891 , A. imitatrix and A. profunda Viereck, 1917 by PIERCE (1909). Andrena claytoniae and A. profunda are, however, junior synonyms of A. imitatrix . PIERCE (1911, 1919) later recognised this relationship between the host names and downgraded the name S. vierecki as a variety and later both S. imitatrix and S. vierecki as subspecies of S. claytoniae . The host bee name A. profunda was presented before the name description ( PIERCE 1909), and thus the host name was published as a nomen nudum.

Distances between DNA barcode sequences of Stylops from the subgenus Scrapteropsis and the other host subgenera are 4–20 % ( JŮZOVÁ et al. 2015).
