Remarks. For Mutilla quinquefasciata sensu Radoszkowski 1885 the new name Ephutomma radoszkovskii was proposed by A. Skorikov (1935) on the basis of the Radoszkowski genitalia figure ( Radoszkowski 1885: Fig. 11 View FIGURES 11–19 ) with distribution in Turkmenistan (Ashgabat and Repetek) ( Skorikov 1935). In the Mutillidae collection of ZIN, studied by A. Skorikov, I could not find the specimens of Skorikovia with such genitalia from Ashgabat, where it can be mixed with S. elongata , and from Repetek, where Skorikovia species are not distributed. The specimens from the North Caucasus ( Lelej 1978) have the genitalia shown by Radoszkowski (1885) and I considered them to be true E. radoszkovskii . Furthermore, the lectotype [MNHU] has the handwritten label O. Radoszkowski “ 5-fasciata ”. With this lectotype designation I validated the use of Skorikovia radoszkovskii ( Skorikov, 1935) . The paralectotype label “ Mutilla elongata Radoszkowski 1885 , B. Petersen des. 1988” is not valid because O. Radoszkowski described and illustrated Mutilla quiquefasciata and M. elongata in one paper ( Radoszkowski 1885) and he could not use the same specimen for two species.
A long series of males of Skorikovia radoszkovskii has been collected from southern Dagestan. In this area the genus Skorikovia is represented by only one species. The female of S. radoszkovskii may eventually be recognized as the opposite sex of this species, based on their co-occurrence in southern Dagestan. There is no direct evidence (pair collected in copula) to support this relationship.
