Treatment

Chrysura candens : Dahlbom 1845: 7.

Type locality.

Greece: Rhodes.

Holotype ♀.

[Mus. Payk.] [NHRS-HEVA000001066].

Remarks.

Chrysura candens Dahlbom is a secondary junior homonym of Chrysis candens Germar, 1817. Dalla Torre (1892: 49, 58) placed Chrysis candens in synonym of Chrysis candens Klug (!) Germar, 1817 (partim) and Chrysis elegans Lepeletier (partim). The type is surely related to large species (3 ½ lin. long.), not comparable with Chrysis candens Germar. The type is partially damaged; it lacks the left fore wing, femura, tibiae and tarsi of left mid- and hindlegs, and tarsi of the left foreleg.

Current status.

Chrysis elegans Lepeletier, 1806 (synonymized by Mocsáry 1889: 301).
