Holotype

♀ [box 61]: golden rounded label // Saratow [handwritten] // Chrysis n. sp. cylindrica Evm. [handwritten by Eversmann] // 12 [printed] // viridula [handwritten by Radoszkowski].

Remarks .

The type is seriously damaged: it lacks metasoma, tibia and tarsi of the fore- and the hind-legs, the right mid-leg, and tarsi of the left mid-leg. It matches Linsenmaier’s interpretation of the species (1968: 81) and it is not a synonym of Chrysis viridula Linnaeus, 1761 as stated by Mocsáry (1887: 14). It belongs to the Chrysis viridula group.
