Description
Summary:73. Parnopes grandior (Pallas, 1771) Chrysis grandior Pallas 1771: 474. Holotype ♂; Russia (ZMB) (examined). Parnopes grandior: Wengris 1962: 9, Orlovskytė et al. 2010: 153. Parnopes grandior grandior: Rosa & Soon 2012. Distribution. Lithuania.—Westpalearctic: southern and central Europe, Southwest Asia (Linsenmaier 1997). Remarks. The species has been recorded from five localities in southern Lithuania (Žvėrynas, Gerdašiai, 1 km E Girdžiūnai, 1 km W Girdžiūnai and Perloja) (Orlovskytė et al. 2010). The species is very rare in Lithuania, although its host, Bembix rostrata, is still relatively widely distributed. P. grandior has been also found close to the border of Fennoscandia in Pargolovo, near St. Petersburg, in July 1879 (Semenov 1912: 179). The specimen is deposited in the Zoological Museum of the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences in St. Petersburg.
