Remarks:
The assignment of
Trachusa cornopes
to the subgenus
Orthanthidium
should be regarded as provisional (
Kasparek, 2017
). Further studies are needed to show whether it is justified to accommodate
T. cornopes
and
T. formosana
, two quite different species, in the same subgenus (
Kasparek, 2017
).
