Remarks.

Chrysura foveata was described based on few specimens (rar.) considered as females, but in the collection one female and one male are found. Dahlbom (1854: 172) gave a subsequent description of the species, which is not very precise, especially with respect to the colour. Kimsey and Bohart (1991: 497) placed Chrysura foveata in synonym with Chrysura trimaculata ( Förster, 1853), without type examination. This synonym is in error; Chrysura foveata was described from Egypt, whereas Chrysura trimaculata is a Euro-Sibiric species, not distributed in northern Africa and belonging to a different genus. Chrysura foveata belongs to the Chrysis hydropica group.

Current status.
