Name
Hedychrum aulicum Spinola, 1843 – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
- Hedychrum aulicum: Spinola 1843[1]: 129.
Label
[♂]: Hedychrum lucidulum, v.[ar.] d. ♂. - Hedychrum aulicum, D. Crist.; D. de Cristofori. Mediolanum.
Catalogue Casolari & Casolari Moreno. Hedychrum lucidulum, 0, 160, 19, 3 (box 50).
Remarks
Spinola (1843)[1] described Hedychrum aulicum based on some males received by De Cristofori from Dalmatia, Sicily, and Spain. Dahlbom (1854[2]: 79) examined only one male and placed it in synonymy with Hedychrum lucidulum (= Hedychrum nobile). There are still three specimens of this species in the Spinola collection: one bears a round label and it was part of Latreille’s or Serville’s collection; we exlude it from the type series. The second specimen belongs to Hedychrum niemelai Linsenmaier and we exclude it from the type series as it is a female. The third specimen is a male and could be considered as a syntype. We cannot identify the species for sure, because it is badly prepared and a new preparation might damage the specimen. The specimen likely belongs to Hedychrum niemelai. We suggest considering the name Hedychrum aulicum as nomen oblitum and Hedychrum niemelai as nomen protectum, since it is in prevailing usage in the last fifty years and the name Hedychrum aulicum has not been used after 1899.
Current status
Hedychrum aulicum Spinola, 1843, nomen oblitum.
