Idgia thibetana ( Obenberger, 1918)
Prionocerus thibetanus Obenberger, 1918: 60 . Idgia thibetana: Pic, 1926: 9 .
This species was originally described as Prionocerus and later placed in Idgia by Pic (1926), without comment. The female holotype ("Poo. West Hym, coll. Splichal", deposited at NMPC) was examined and it evidently does not belong to Prionocerus . It was compared to several specimens of I. viridescens Gorham, 1895 , of which the male holotype could be examined at Pic’s collection a MNHP. No morphological differences between female I. viridescens and the type of thibetana could be found. Also, the type locality of I. thibetana falls fully within the range of I. viridescens . Therefore, it is here regarded as a junior synonym: Idgia viridescens Gorham, 1895 [= Prionocerus metallescens Fairmaire, 1896 (synonymised by Champion (1919)]; [= Prionocerus thibetanus Obenberger, 1918 n. syn.].
