| Summary: | A critical and annotated catalogue of 72 types of Chrysididae (Hymenoptera) belonging to 53 species and subspecies housed in the Swedish Museum of Natural History is given. The lectotypes of Chrysis diversa Dahlbom, 1845, C. soror Dahlbom, 1854, Chrysura sulcata Dahlbom, 1845 and Holopyga amoenula Dahlbom, 1845 are designated. The previous lectotype of Chrysis diversa Dahlbom, 1845 is set aside. Five new synonymies are proposed: Chrysis elegans var. smaragdula Trautmann, 1926 (currently C. elegans ssp. interrogata Linsenmaier, 1959 repl. name for smaragdula Trautmann, nec Fabricius, 1775), syn. n. of C. confluens (Dahlbom, 1845); C. eximia Mocsáry, 1889, syn. n. of C. poecila Mocsáry, 1889; C. pyrrhina Dahlbom, 1845, syn. n. of C. erythromelas Dahlbom, 1845; C. separata Trautmann, 1926, syn. n. of C. lateralis Dahlbom, 1845; C. sicula Abeille de Perrin, 1877, syn. n. of C. erythromelas Dahlbom, 1845. Chrysis serena Radoszkowski, 1891 is the first available name for C. pyrrhina sensu auctorum. C. erythromelas Dahlbom, 1845 is revaluated as valid species. The neotype of Chrysis inaequalis Dahlbom, 1845 is designated in the Linsenmaier collection (NMLS). Illustrations of 34 types are given. |
