Spinolia dusmeti Trautmann, 1921

Spinolia dusmeti Trautmann, 1921: 35 . Syntypes ♀ [not holotype ♀]; Pakistan: Punjab, Warzirabad (MfN).

Spinolia kashmirae Kimsey in Kimsey & Bohart, 1991: 552. Unnecessary replacement name ( India: Kashmir, Grenze).

Distribution. Pakistan.

Remarks. Trautmann (1921) described Spinolia dusmeti based on more females. In MfN there are two female syntypes collected at the same locality and bearing the same label: Warzirabad [= Warzirabat], West Indies, April 1909. Kimsey (in Kimsey & Bohart 1991) replaced the name Spinolia dusmeti with Spinolia kashmirae Kimsey in Kimsey & Bohart, 1991 because she considered the species described in the genus Chrysis . However, this species was described in the genus Spinolia and therefore Spinolia dusmeti is neither a primary nor a secondary homonym of Chrysis dusmeti García Mercet, 1904 . The replacement name is consequently unnecessary. Kimsey & Bohart (1991) listed this species for India, but Warzirabat is currently located in Pakistan; however, this species is expected for the Palaearctic part of India.
