Remarks. Linsenmaier (1997: 258) synonymised Hedychridium insulare with H. caucasium Trautmann, 1926 . Two males collected by R. Meyer at Rhodes should be the paratypes listed in the original description, yet they bear an identification label handwritten by Linsenmaier in 1995 without any further note on their type status.
