Chrysis ashabadensis Radoszkowski, 1891 Plate 9

Chrysis ashabadensis Radoszkowski 1891a: 183.

Type locality.

“Ashabad”.

Holotype

♂ [box 60]: label with tergal segment // Trans-Caspia [printed] [yellow label] // ashabadensi [handwritten by Radoszkowski sic!].

Remarks.

The type is partly damaged: both hind-legs are missing and both antennae are broken (the left antenna lacks five flagellomeres, the right antenna lacks six); the genital capsule glued on the label is also missing; a few metasomal sternites and tergites are still glued on the label.

It belongs to the Chrysis succincta group and not to the Chrysis elegans group, as supposed by Linsenmaier (1968) and Kimsey and Bohart (1991).

Current status.
