Type locality.

"Patria: Græcia (Parnassus, Coll. Schmiedeknecthi! Ephesus, Mus. Turicense!) et Caucasus (Coll. Rad.! Mus. Hung. et Vindob.! et Coll. Fairmaieri!)".

Paralectotype

1♂ [box 61]: Caucas Mlok [printed] // 263 [handwritten by Mocsáry] // var. orientalis Mocs [handwritten by Radoszkowski].

Remarks.

Twelve other specimens bearing the same locality labels, but without handwritten identification labels by Radoszkowski, could be considered as paralectotypes. The lectotype was designated by Moczár (1965: 174) at HNHM. Linsenmaier (1959: 149) replaced the name orientalis Mocsáry 1889 with orientica ( comparata ssp. orientica) and considered it as the greenish oriental subspecies of Chrysis comparata Lepeletier, 1806. It belongs to the Chrysis comparata group.

Current status.

Chrysis comparata orientica Lepeletier, 1959.
