Chrysis sabulosa Radoszkowski, 1877

Chrysis sabulosa Radoszkowski 1877: 24.

Type locality.

"Habitat in monte Karak", “Три ♂ этого вида пойманы 7 мая 1871 г. нa горѣ Каракъ” [Three males of this species were collected on the 7th of May 1871 on the Karak mountain].

Syntype

1♀ [not a male!] [box 62]: golden rounded label // sabulosa [handwritten by Radoszkowski] // 7. [printed] [pink label with red line] // Каракь [printed] // 118 [printed] // label with metasoma.

Remarks.

The type is seriously damaged: it lacks the left antenna and the right flagellum, the mid- and hind-legs; the face is partially covered by glue; the prothorax is glued to the mesothorax; the metasoma is glued on a separate label.

In the description, Radoszkowski listed only three males, but the picture of the species (table II, picture 11) undoubtedly shows a female with an exserted ovipositor. Another syntype is found in MMU and it was considered as the holotype by Kimsey and Bohart (1991), it bears the following labels, 7. [pink label with red line] / Каракъ [printed] / Chrysis sabulosa Rad. <handwritten red label>. According to Kimsey and Bohart (1991) it belongs to the Chrysis sabulosa group.

Current status.
