Lasioglossum (Sphecodogastra) dusmeti (Blüthgen, 1924)

Of no type value

(labelled as cotype by Blüthgen). Spain • Castilla-La Mancha, Ciudad Real, Pozuelo de Calatrava ; undated; 1 ♀ ( ZOO.0018835 , Fig. 8 C ); det. P. Blüthgen, leg. La Fuente.

Syntype

(labelled as cotype by Blüthgen). Spain • Comunidad de Madrid, Madrid, Sierra de Guadarrama ; 23. viii. 1915; 1 ♂ ( ZOO.0018841 , Fig. 8 D ); det. P. Blüthgen, leg. J. M. Dusmet Alonso.

Remarks.

The specimen from Pozuelo de Calatrava ( ZOO.0018835 ) was labelled as a co-type by Blüthgen, and he may indeed have used it to help define the species whilst writing the description, but as he did not explicitly mention this specimen in his publication, it is of no type value. Ebmer (1995) in examining type material in the Madrid museum did not think it necessary to designate a lectotype from specimens there, as he argued that Blüthgen adequately described the species and that its recognition was clear. We therefore treat only the male from the Sierra de Guadarrama as syntypic.
