15. Chrysis valida Mocsáry, 1912

Chrysis ignita var. valida Mocsáry 1912: 589 . Lectotype ♀ (designated by Móczár 1965: 176); Hungary: Budapest (MNSB) (examined) ( Chrysis ignita group).

Remarks. The species was reported from two localities in central Latvia (Bērze and Koknese) by Tumšs & Maršakovs (1970: 93), and later based on this record Rosa & Soon (2012) also listed this species from the country. All the Latvian specimens listed in Tumšs’ & Maršakovs’ publication were found from Maršakovs’ collection in LMSZ, Riga, and were found to be erroneously determined. Most of them belonged to the species C. pseudobrevitarsis , but some also represented C. angustula , C. longula and C. solida Humala & Polevoi (2009: 63) reported one specimen of C. valida from Russian Fennoscandia, but it has turned out to represent C. impressa .
