Syntype.

♂, 5.[IV.1871] // Ташкентъ [Uzbekistan, Tashkent, 41°18'N, 69°16'E] // Andrena lucidicollis Mor. [handwritten by F. Morawitz] // Lectotypus Warncke, 1975 <red label> // Syntypus Andrena lucidicollis Mor., 1876 <red label> [ZMMU].

Current status.

Andrena (Poecilandrena) lucidicollis Morawitz, 1876

Remarks.

Female unknown (according to Gusenleitner and Schwarz 2002: 443).

Gusenleitner and Schwarz (2001: 140) refer to a “lectotype” deposited at the ZISP. However, we have found a single male specimen labelled "10.[IV.1871] // Ташкентъ // Andrena lucidicollis Mor. var. [handwritten by F. Morawitz] // Paralectotypus Andrena lucidicollis Mor., design. Osychnjuk, 1980". This specimen does not belong to the type series formally, as it is labelled "10.[10 April 1871]" (in the original description Morawitz mentioned only specimens collected on 5 April). The syntype (Fig. 24 ) deposited at the ZMMU and labelled by Warncke as a “Lectotypus” on our opinion is in too poor a condition to be designated as a lectotype. However, both exemplars belong to one species and could be considered to be syntypes.

Distribution.

Uzbekistan.
