Name

Chrysis capitalis species-group – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile

• Chrysis capitalis species-group: Kimsey and Bohart 1991: 325 (key), 329 (fig. 107p), 336 (fig. 110m), 339 (diagnosis), 350 (fig. 112j).

Diagnosis

The capitalis species-group is characterised by apex of T3 simple, TFC prominent and M-shaped, and mid ocellus lidded. Some species in the capitalis species-group are also easily recognised by female metasoma usually blue to green with golden stripes (e.g. C. abuensis Nurse, 1902, C. bayadera du Buysson, 1896, C. ignifascia Mocsáry, 1893, and C. jalala Nurse, 1902).

Description

Scapal basin microridged medially. Male F1 l/w = 1.5; female F1 l/w = 1.9–3.0. TFC usually well developed and M-shaped. Mid ocellus lidded. MS usually < 1.0 MOD. T2 with median ridge. T3 weakly saddled in female; pit row moderately impressed; apex of T3 convex or slightly concave medially, without apical teeth.

Biology

Unknown.

Species included

Fourteen species: seven Afrotropical, Chrysis capitalis Dahlbom, 1854, C. dalmanni Dahlbom, 1845, C. infuscata Brullé, 1846, C. jugum Dahlbom, 1850, C. levioris Edney, 1952, C. rutilata du Buysson, 1898b, and C. sinuosa Dahlbom, 1845 (Rosa and Vårdal 2015); six Oriental, C. abuensis Nurse, C. bayadera du Buysson, C. ignifascia Mocsáry, 1893 (= C. taiwana Tsuneki, 1970, syn. n.), C. sumptuosa Smith, 1858, C. wroughtoni du Buysson, 1896, and C. yoshikawai Tsuneki, 1961; and one Palaearctic species, C. jalala Nurse.

Distribution

Afrotropical, Oriental and Palaearctic regions.

Remarks

Chrysis arabica Mocsáry, 1911 was moved to the newly created C. arabica species-group by Linsenmaier (1994).
