Astafurova et al. , 2023 <red label>. Current status. Andrena ( Campylogaster ) skorikovi Popov, 1940 , syn. nov. Taxonomical note. The holotype of Andrena skorikovi is conspecific with the lectotype of A. firuzaensis and as the first revisers we choose A. skorikovi as the valid name. Remark. Male unknown (according to Osytshnjuk et al . 2005: 142 ). Osytshnjuk et al . (2005: 141) indicated that one syntype specimen as the ‘holotype’, but Popov (1940) did not directly indicate a single specimen and two specimens from the type series are deposited in the ZISP. According to the Recommendation 74A of the Code (ICZN, 1999) we here designated the ‘holotype’ specimen as lectotype . Distribution. See Andrena skorikovi .
