Type locality. Greece: Rhodes. Holotype ♀. [Mus. Payk.] [NHRS-HEVA000001066]. Remarks. Chrysura candens Dahlbom is a secondary junior homonym of Chrysis candens Germar, 1817. Dalla Torre (1892 : 49, 58) placed Chrysis candens in synonym of Chrysis candens Klug (!) Germar, 1817 (partim) and Chrysis elegans Lepeletier (partim). The type is surely related to large species ( 3 1/2 lin. long. ), not comparable with Chrysis candens Germar. The type is partially damaged; it lacks the left fore wing, femura, tibiae and tarsi of left mid- and hindlegs, and tarsi of the left foreleg. Current status. Chrysis elegans Lepeletier, 1806 (synonymized by Mocsary 1889 : 301).
