Jungicephus mandibularis Maa, 1949

Jungicephus mandibularis Maa, 1949: 22 .

Specimen examined. No specimen has been examined by the authors. The type depository of the species is unknown.

Distribution. China (Hebei).

Discussion. Maa (1949) described and figured this species in detail based on a female collected from Chahar (now Zhangjiakou Region of Hebei Province). But he did not mention the type depository and the number of the specimens that he examined. We wrote letters to some universities in Taiwan Province, where Dr. Maa ever worked, and tried to find the type of the species, but got no reply.

Because Maa's works on sawfly taxonomy are usually reliable, and the original description and the figures of Jungicephus mandibularis Maa are good enough for judgement of the species, there is no reason to doubt the reliability of the species.
