The ''{{Taxon name|succincta}}'' species group includes more than a hundred species distributed worldwide, with a large majority known in the Palaearctic region, and subdivided into ''{{Taxon name|succincta}}'' s.str. subgroup and ''leachii'' subgroup (or ''leachii'' group according to Linsenmaier 1959<ref name="B6">{{aut|Linsenmaier W}} (1959) Revision der Familie {{Taxon name|Chrysididae}} ({{Taxon name|Hymenoptera}}) mit besonderer Brücksichtigung der europäischen Spezies.Mitteilungen der Schweizerischen Entomologischen Gesellschaft32: 1–232.</ref >). Usually, Palaearctic species are easily recognised by their slender habitus and by their peculiar colouration, with the body largely red coloured. The most diagnostic feature is anyhow the prominent brow, often ridge-like, and the transverse frontal carina which is usually only partially developed; females scapal basin is always polished medially in the ''{{Taxon name|succincta}}'' s.str. subgroup, whereas it is finely striated in the ''leachii'' subgroup, while in males it is finely punctate in both subgroups. The apical margin of tergum III is highly variable, bearing from none to four teeth or two median teeth almost fused together and projecting medially.

The description of ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'' given by Linnaeus (1767)<ref name="B62">{{aut|Linnaeus C}} (1767) Systema naturae sive regna tria naturae, secundum classes, ordines, genera, species, cum characteribus, differentiis, synonymis, locis. Laurentii Salvii, Holmiae, 12th ed. v. 1 (pt 2), 533–1327.</ref > is very short, but concise and precise. Linnaeus described it with "''abdomine aureo subtridentato''". The specimen, or the specimens, examined by Linnaeus were females belonging to the species now identified as ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis illigeri}}'' Wesmael or ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis bicolor}}'' Lepeletier. The females of these species have four teeth on the anal margin, but the two median teeth are very close, at first sight with a low magnifying glass may appear merged into a single tooth, therefore displaying a "subtridentato" appearance.<br />

Linsenmaier (1997)<ref name="B8">{{aut|Linsenmaier W}} (1997) Altes und Neues von den Chrysididen. ({{Taxon name|Hymenoptera}}, {{Taxon name|Chrysididae}}).Entomofauna18(19): 245–300.</ref > established the ''{{Taxon name|autocrata}}'' species group, based on ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis autocrata}}'' Nurse, 1903. After type examination of the latter, we propose the new synonymy ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis variana}}'' du Buysson, 1901 <nowiki>=</nowiki> ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis autocrata}}'' Nurse, 1903, syn. nov. ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis variana}}'' (see pictures of the type in Rosa et al. 2020<ref name="B21">{{aut|Rosa P}}, {{aut|Madl M}}, {{aut|Zettel H}}, {{aut|Zimmermann D}} (2020) Annotated catalogue of the {{Taxon name|Chrysididae}} ({{Taxon name|Insecta}}, {{Taxon name|Hymenoptera}}) types deposited at the Naturhistorisches Museum, Vienna. Annalen des Naturhistorischen Museums in Wien, Serie B: 17–140.</ref >) is a widespread Central Asian species of the ''{{Taxon name|succincta}}'' group (known from Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tadjikistan, Turkmenistan and Pakistan), and apparently unknown to Linsenmaier, as it is not listed in his papers and was not found in his collection. Consequently, we synonymize the ''{{Taxon name|autocrata}}'' species group with the ''{{Taxon name|succincta}}'' species group, because it is not sufficiently supported by morphological diagnostic characters. During the examination of the Palaearctic types of cuckoo wasps, the first author also observed that the holotype of ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis ewridica}}'' Tarbinsky, 2001 (described from Kyrgyzstan, Jalal-Abad) is a female of ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis variana}}'' and therefore we here propose also the new synonymy ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis variana}}'' du Buysson, 1901 <nowiki>=</nowiki> ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis ewridica}}'' Tarbinsky, 2001, syn. nov.

Today, the name ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'' Linnaeus is erroneously attributed to a species with the anal margin of the third tergite simple, rounded, sub-oval, and toothless. This misinterpretation has already been pointed out by Niehuis (in Mandery and Niehuis 2000<ref name="B73">{{aut|Mandery K}}, {{aut|Niehuis O}} (2000) Die Goldwespen der Sammlung T. Schneid im Naturkundemuseum Bamberg. Bericht der Naturforschenden Gesellschaft in Bamberg 74: 45–59.</ref >: 51). ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis illigeri}}'' and ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis bicolor}}'' are distributed in all Europe and they are quite frequent or common in central and northern Europe, whereas ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'' ''sensu'' Linsenmaier 1959<ref name="B64">{{aut|Linsenmaier W}} (1959) Revision der Familie {{Taxon name|Chrysididae}} ({{Taxon name|Hymenoptera}}) mit besonderer Berücksichtigung der europäischen Spezies. Mitteilungen der Schweizerischen Entomologischen Gesellschaft 32: 1–232.</ref > is a central European species, whose range appears to be restricted to Germany and Poland, although it is possible that its distribution went further north in Linnaeus’ time. Unfortunately the type of ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'' must be considered lost; it is not housed in LSL, NHRS, or LMU.<br />

Jurine (1807<ref name="B49">{{aut|Jurine L}} (1807) Nouvelle méthode de classer les Hyménoptères et les Diptères. Hyménoptères. Tomus I JJ Paschoud, Geneve, 320 pp.</ref >: 295) was the first author to identify a specimen with a complete anal margin bearing the name ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'': "''Je n’ai pu reconnaitre ni dents, ni échancrures au dernier segment du ventre''". Later, Wesmael (1839<ref name="B131">{{aut|Wesmael C}} (1839) Notice sur les Chrysides de Belgique. Bulletins de l’Académie Royal des Sciences et Belles-Lettres de Bruxelles 4(1): 167–177.</ref >: 176, 177) followed Jurine’s interpretation. Wesmael described ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis illigeri}}'' with: "''ano utrinque emarginato, in medio bidentato''" in contrast with his interpretation of ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'': "''ano utrinque oblique subemarginato, in medio obtuso''". After this paper, all the main authors considered ''{{Taxon name|succincta}}'' as a species with a toothless anal margin.<br />

Linsenmaier (1959)<ref name="B64">{{aut|Linsenmaier W}} (1959) Revision der Familie {{Taxon name|Chrysididae}} ({{Taxon name|Hymenoptera}}) mit besonderer Berücksichtigung der europäischen Spezies. Mitteilungen der Schweizerischen Entomologischen Gesellschaft 32: 1–232.</ref > described the ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'' species group based on the misidentified ''{{Taxon name|succincta}}'', and later Kimsey and Bohart (1991)<ref name="B53">{{aut|Kimsey L}}, {{aut|Bohart R}} (1991) The Chrysidid Wasps of the World. University Press, New York, 652 pp.</ref > described the ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'' ''sensu'' stricto subgroup and the ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta leachii}}'' subgroup. Moreover, most of the species belonging to the ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'' species group have been described as variations, forms, or subspecies of ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'', or they have been considered, sooner or later, as synonyms of ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}''. For this reason, nowadays, ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'' is erroneously listed as occurring in all the European countries, in northern Africa and eastwards to central Asia. The easiest way to solve the problem would be to suppress the name ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}''. Since it is improper to ask for the suppression of a name given by Linnaeus, we designate a neotype based on one specimen identified as ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'' by Linsenmaier, the only author who gave a detailed description of the species in the modern sense. The selected specimen is a male housed in the Linsenmaier collection (NML), and bearing the following labels: Bromberg <nowiki>[</nowiki>currently Bydgoszcz, Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland<nowiki>]</nowiki> 24.V.20 leg. dr. Meyer Coll. Linsenmaier / ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis}}'' L. ''{{Taxon name|succincta}}'' L. Linsenmaier det. 59 / ex synoptic collection / NML_ENT GBIF_Chr00021185. The neotype matches Linsenmaier’s description of this species (1959<ref name="B64">{{aut|Linsenmaier W}} (1959) Revision der Familie {{Taxon name|Chrysididae}} ({{Taxon name|Hymenoptera}}) mit besonderer Berücksichtigung der europäischen Spezies. Mitteilungen der Schweizerischen Entomologischen Gesellschaft 32: 1–232.</ref >: 114, Figs 340, 490). The decision to designate this neotype in the Linsenmaier collection was done after consultation with other specialists (Arens, Paukkunen, Pavesi, Soon, Wiśniowski) as recommended by the Code (Recommendation 75B0. Redescription of ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'' Linnaeus, 1767).

==Diagnosis==
 
−
''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'' mostly resemble ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis frivaldszkyi}}'' Mocsáry and ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis tristicula}}'' Linsenmaier (<nowiki>=</nowiki> ''{{Taxon name|succinctula}}'' ''sensu'' Linsenmaier) in respect of the shape of the anal margin, the general habitus and colour, especially of the females. It can be easily separated from the male of ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis frivaldszkyi}}'' by the distinctively different shape of its genital capsula (Rosa 2005<ref name="B109">{{aut|Rosa P}} (2005) I Crisidi ({{Taxon name|Hymenoptera}}, {{Taxon name|Chrysididae}}) del Museo Civico di Storia Naturale di Milano. Natura (Milano) 94(2): 1–128.</ref >: figs 19a, b, c) and by the different body colour; the females of ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis frivaldszkyi}}'' and ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis tristicula}}'' are very difficult to separate from the female of ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'' based on morphological characteristics. However, their distribution in Europe is non-overlapping, with ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'' being distributed in Germany, Poland, and the Baltic countries, whereas ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis frivaldskzyi}}'' is distributed in the SE Europe, from Italy to Dalmatia, Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Greece, Ukraine, and eastwards to Middle East. ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis tristicula}}'' is distributed in SW Europe (Italy, Switzerland, France, Iberian Peninsula) and North Africa (Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt?). Males of ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis tristicula}}'' can be separated based on the shape of their genital capsula when seen in dosal view: it has a different stout gonostyle, with two aligned apical lobes (Plate 48H, J). Males of ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis tristicula}}'' also show a different colouration, having head and thorax blue with few light blue to greenish reflections, and red flame anterior drawing on pronotum, mesonotum, anterior angles of metanotum and metasoma, as in ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis illigeri}}'' Wesmael, 1839; the shape of the black spots on the second sternite can gradually vary within the European down to the African specimens, but are always more separated (about 2 MOD) than in ''{{Taxon name|succincta}}''.<br />
 
−
''{{Taxon name|Chrysis semistriata}}'' Linsenmaier is very similar to ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis tristicula}}'', but it seems to be restricted to Sardinia and Corsica, and it was considered as an endemic Sardinian species (Rosa 2005<ref name="B109">{{aut|Rosa P}} (2005) I Crisidi ({{Taxon name|Hymenoptera}}, {{Taxon name|Chrysididae}}) del Museo Civico di Storia Naturale di Milano. Natura (Milano) 94(2): 1–128.</ref >). It shows small chromatic and morphological differences to ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis tristicula}}''. It belongs to the ''{{Taxon name|Chrysis succincta}}'' group.

Name

Chrysis succincta species group – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile

  • Chrysis succincta group: Linsenmaier 1959[1]: 92 (key), 106 (diagn.). Kimsey and Bohart 1991: 324 (key), 363 (diagn.).
  • Chrysis succincta s.str. subgroup: Kimsey and Bohart 1991: 362 (diagn.).
  • Chrysis autocrata group: Linsenmaier 1997[2]: 275, syn. nov.

Diagnosis

The succincta species group includes more than a hundred species distributed worldwide, with a large majority known in the Palaearctic region, and subdivided into succincta s.str. subgroup and leachii subgroup (or leachii group according to Linsenmaier 1959[1]). Usually, Palaearctic species are easily recognised by their slender habitus and by their peculiar colouration, with the body largely red coloured. The most diagnostic feature is anyhow the prominent brow, often ridge-like, and the transverse frontal carina which is usually only partially developed; females scapal basin is always polished medially in the succincta s.str. subgroup, whereas it is finely striated in the leachii subgroup, while in males it is finely punctate in both subgroups. The apical margin of tergum III is highly variable, bearing from none to four teeth or two median teeth almost fused together and projecting medially.

Hosts

Crabronidae (Pauli et al. 2019[3]).

Remarks

Linsenmaier (1997)[2] established the autocrata species group, based on Chrysis autocrata Nurse, 1903. After type examination of the latter, we propose the new synonymy Chrysis variana du Buysson, 1901 = Chrysis autocrata Nurse, 1903, syn. nov. Chrysis variana (see pictures of the type in Rosa et al. 2020[4]) is a widespread Central Asian species of the succincta group (known from Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tadjikistan, Turkmenistan and Pakistan), and apparently unknown to Linsenmaier, as it is not listed in his papers and was not found in his collection. Consequently, we synonymize the autocrata species group with the succincta species group, because it is not sufficiently supported by morphological diagnostic characters. During the examination of the Palaearctic types of cuckoo wasps, the first author also observed that the holotype of Chrysis ewridica Tarbinsky, 2001 (described from Kyrgyzstan, Jalal-Abad) is a female of Chrysis variana and therefore we here propose also the new synonymy Chrysis variana du Buysson, 1901 = Chrysis ewridica Tarbinsky, 2001, syn. nov.
