Type locality.

Holotype

♀ [box 60]: golden rounded label // Tachkend [printed] // 117 [printed] // [unreadeable] [handwritten] // trisinuata Moc. [handwritten by Radoszkowski].

Remarks.

The taxonomic position of this species is not clear. The very short malar space (less than 1 MOD); feeble transverse frontal carina joined to the upper margin of the scapal basin; micropunctuated scapal basin; prolonged and teethless anal margin suggest that Chrysis trisinuata could belong to the genus Chrysidea Bischoff. However the general habitus, large dimensions (about 7 mm) and the complete closed cells on the wings place it in the genus Chrysis Linnaeus.
