13. Genus Chrysura Dahlbom, 1845 Chrysura Dahlbom 1845: 6. Type species: Chrysis austriaca Fabricius, 1804 [= Chrysura austriaca (Fabricius, 1804)], designated by Bodenstein 1939: 125. Holochrysis Rye 1878: 134. Invalid emendation of Olochrysis Lichtenstein, 1876. Remarks. Dahlbom described the genus Chrysura in 1845 with ten species: C. unicolor, C. confluens, C. foveata, C. humboldti, C. bicolor, C. sulcata, C. austriaca, C. candens, C. nitidula and C. coeruleipes . Bodenstein (1939: 133) later designated Chrysis austriaca Fabricius as the type species of the genus. As noted by Vikberg (1986a: 61) and based on Erkki Valkeila’s unpublished manuscript, Bodenstein’s designation of the types species is incorrect, as Chrysis austriaca Fabricius, 1804 is not the same as C. austriaca sensu Dahlbom (1829, 1831, 1845), which is Chrysis neglecta Shuckard, 1837 (Dahlbom 1854: 134; Mocsáry, 1889: 255; Dalla Torre 1892: 80, Balthasar 1954: 143). Linsenmaier (1951) placed C. neglecta in the genus Euchroeus , subgenus Pseudospinolia Linsenmaier. Later Pseudospinolia was raised to generic level by Bohart & Kimsey (1980). If C. austriaca Dahlbom were to be chosen as the type species, the name Chrysura would be the first available name for the genus Pseudospinolia Linsenmaier and Monochrysis Lichtenstein, 1876 would become the first available name for Chrysura sensu auctorum . However, the current usage of the name C. austriaca (e.g. Morgan 1984, Kimsey & Bohart 1991, Rosa 2006) favours the nominal species named in the fixation ( C. austriaca Fabricius). Consequently we observe that stability of nomenclature is maintained by the current and correct interpretation of the taxon C. austriaca Fabricius, which is not in contrast with the interpretation of the genus given by Dahlbom. We therefore consider no need for designation of a new type species. : Published as part of Paukkunen, Juho, Rosa, Paolo, Soon, Villu, Johansson, Niklas & Ødegaard, Frode, 2014, Faunistic review of the cuckoo wasps of Fennoscandia, Denmark and the Baltic countries (Hymenoptera: Chrysididae), pp. 1-67 in Zootaxa 3864 (1) on page 47, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3864.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/4930433 : {"references": ["Dahlbom, A.
