Ordo: Hymenoptera
Familia: Chrysididae
Genus: Elampus
Name
Elampus gayi Spinola, 1851 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Elampus gayi: Spinola 1851[1]: 413.
Type locality
Chile. "De Santa Rosa y de la Ligua".
Material
Lectotype (here designated) ♀. Elampus Gayi, Spin. / D. Gay, Chili. // Paralectotype 1♀. Elampus Gayi Spinola, det. L. D. French.
Catalogue Casolari & Casolari Moreno. Elampus gayi, 1, 52, 32, 1 (box 50).
Remarks
French labelled the specimen as paralectotype, but the designation was not published. The species was described based on at least two males (sexo dudoso) collected at Santa Rosa and Ligua. The second syntype is housed in MNHN (du Buysson 1898[2]: 519). Du Buysson completed the description of this species, even though the specimen was missing the head and part of metasoma. Later, du Buysson (1899[3]: 160) removed this specimen from the catalogue of the types housed in the MNHN. Since the syntype in MNHN is badly damaged and it was not considered as a type by du Buysson (1899)[3], we here designate the syntype of Elampus gayi as lectotype in the Spinola collection, according to the Recommendation 74D of the Code. The specimen is in good condition, even though it is missing the last three flagellomeres of the left antenna and five of the right antenna.
Current status
Elampus gayi Spinola, 1851.
