Types. Tenthredo flavitarsis Konow, 1908: 24–25 . Syntypes ♀ , “ Sikkim ”. Lectotype ♀ , hereby designated, (MNCN_ Ent 100244, MNCN Cat.

Discussion. Malaise (1945) considered the paralectotype to be a paratype , Oehlke & Wudowenz (1984) as a questionable holotype , and Saini (2007: 116) implied that the specimen is the holotype . The species, hitherto unplaced within Tenthredo , belongs to the subgenus Olivacedo Zhelochovtsev, 1988 .
