Andrena

)
graecella
Warncke, 1965
Distribution:
Bulgaria
,
Greece
, North
Macedonia
.
Material examined (
A. hyemala repressa
Warncke
):
ISRAEL
:
Nir Am, 14.iii.19??,
H. Bytinski-Salz
(
1♂
) (
SMNHTAU
)
.
Remarks.
Israeli specimens identified by Warncke as
A
.
graecella
(
Warncke 1969
)
actually belong to
A
.
hyemala repressa
Warncke
, which he described six years later (
Warncke 1975
).
Andrena graecella
is limited to southeastern Europe. This error derives from a period of time (1965–1973) during which Warncke used the name
A. graecella
for what was actually the undescribed
A. hyemala
Warncke
, see discussion in
Gusenleitner & Schwarz (2002)
