Holotype

♂ [box 61]: golden rounded label, Mindanao [handwritten] // Brasilia. [printed] [green label] // diademata Mocs [handwritten by Radoszkowski] // 108 [printed].

Remarks.

One of the labels bears the locality Brasilia. Mocsáry himself noted that the locality Mindanao should be related to the Philippine Islands and not to a Brazilian locality.

The particular red colour of the head is quite typical for species distributed in the islands of the Oriental Region. It belongs to the Chrysis angolensis group.
