Abstract

Clytus annulus F., 1801 syn.n. is proposed as a junior synonym of Echinocerus floralis (Pallas, 1773). The lectotype of the first taxon is designated. РЕЗЮМЕ. Обозначен лектотип Clytus annulus Fabricius, 1801; установлена синонимия Clytus annulus Fabricius, 1801 = Echinocerus floralis (Pallas, 1773) syn.n. Clytus annulus Fabricius, 1801: 352 Schoenherr, 1817: 470; Laporte, Gory, 1841: 111; Aurivillus, 1912: 373. Clytus annulus Fabricius, 1801 was described in the “Systema Eleutheratoum...”: “annulus. 28. C.virescens, elytris fasciis tribus nigris: tertia annulari. Habitat ad Cap. Bon. Spei. Mus. D. Lund.
