Description
Summary:68. Chrysura austriaca (Fabricius, 1804) Chrysis austriaca Fabricius 1804: 173. Holotype ♀; Austria (ZMUC) (examined). Chrysura austriaca : Orlovskytė et al. 2010: 152, Rosa & Soon 2012. Distribution. Lithuania.—Transpalearctic: from Europe and North Africa to Siberia and Japan (Linsenmaier 1997, Kurzenko & Lelej 2007). Remarks. In the studied area, C. austriaca has been found from only three localities in Lithuania (Puvočiai, Trakai, Vilnius) (Orlovskytė et al. 2010). Billberg (1820: 104) reported the species from Sweden and later also Trautmann (1927: 113), Berland & Bernard (1938: 83), Benno (1950: 44), Balthasar (1954: 176), Haupt (1957: 77), Noskiewicz & Pulawski (1958: 40) and Banaszak (1980: 23) mentioned the species from the country. We have considered these records doubtful, as we have not seen any Swedish specimens in collections. Most of the Swedish records probably originate from Dahlbom’s publications (1829: 14 and 1831: 31), where Chrysis austriaca ( sensu Dahlbom) was reported from southern Sweden. Later Dahlbom (1854: 134) noticed his mistake and corrected the species to Chrysis integrella , which is currently known as Pseudospinolia neglecta . The closest records of C. austriaca outside the Nordic and Baltic countries are from northern Germany, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Jakobs & Kornmilch 2007).
