Chrysis analis var. perrisi Radoszkovsky, 1880 Plate 4

Chrysis analis var. β Perrisi Radoszkovsky 1880 (1879): 144.

Type locality.

“Caucasus” [written in the introduction].

Syntype

1♀ [box 62]: Caucasus [printed].

Remarks.

The name is dedicated to Abeille de Perrin and the name perrisi is an incorrect original spelling. Radoszkowski (1889: 25) emended the name perrisi to perrini ("faute d’imprimerie”). The name perrini was later accepted by Mocsáry (1889: 454; Perrisi "e mando typographico secundum auctorem pro Perrini"), Dalla Torre (1892: 43, sub Chrysis perrinii), du Buysson (1896: 17), Bischoff (1913: 47), Trautmann (1927: 171), Linsenmaier (1987: 151), but was considered as an invalid emendation by Kimsey and Bohart (1991: 382). Kimsey & Bohart placed Chrysis perrini in synonymy of Chrysis analis Spinola. We follow the interpretation given by Linsenmaier (1987), who considered Chrysis perrini as a valid species. The second male syntype is housed in MNHU. It belongs to the Chrysis comparata group.

Current status.

Chrysis perrini Radoszkovsky, 1880 (emended by Radoszkowski 1889).
