Remarks.

Bohart (in Kimsey and Bohart 1991: 473) designated the lectotype at MMU. In Radoszkowski’s collection, under the name Uljanini R. there are three male specimens belonging to the Chrysis cerastes group, with very short F-I and F-II: one male paralectotype of Chrysis uljanini, and other two specimens with the same particular colour and thoracic punctuation. The first specimen is the syntype (currently paralectotype) listed by Radoszkowski as: Ϲтепь м . Ϲ . д . и Т . [printed] // 19. [= 19 мая 1871 г . въ степи между Ϲыръ-Дарьей и Ташкентомъ” in the Russian description]. The other two specimens were collected at: "Iskender [Iskenderund?] 20.jul.1870" and "Kizilkum 30 Aug 1870" and they cannot be considered as paralectotypes of Chrysis uljanini . The specimen collected at Kizilkum was dissected by Radoszkowski, who drew the genitalia in his revision (1889: tab.IV, fig. 51). For further remarks see under Chrysis uljanini Radoszkowski & Mocsáry and Chrysis sarafschana Mocsáry . The second paralectotype is the female selected by Mocsáry as the holotype of Chrysis sarafschana Mocsáry, 1889. It belongs to the Chrysis ignita group.
