Chrysis mucronata DAHLBOM 1854 is a junior homonym of Chrysis mucronata BRULLÉ 1846 . Chrysis mucronifera ABEILLE de PERRIN 1879 and Chrysis mucronifera MOCSÁRY 1887 are unnecessary replacement names. The type of Chrysis laborans COSTA, which should be in the Museo di Zoologia dell’Università di Napoli Federico II in Naples, is lost. All Costa types of Chrysididae get lost after du Buysson’s examination. They are neither in Naples nor in the Museum National d’Histoire Naturelle in Paris.
