Osmia (Hoplosmia) warnckei ( Tkalců 1992)

Hoplosmia (Odontanthocopa) warnckei Tkalců 1992: 223 View in CoL . Type material: Holotype ♂, “ 15 km SE Sarvestan / Fars, 1800 m, 17.5.1978 ” ( Iran), Oberösterreichisches Landesmuseum Linz.

Diagnosis of the hitherto unknown ♀: Osmia warnckei belongs to those O. ( Hoplosmia ) species, which have their metanotum not hidden by the scutellum when seen from above and whose proboscis is not longer than the mesosoma. Among these species, the female of O. warnckei is easily recognisable by the very coarse punctation of head and mesosoma, the very sharp preooccipital margin and the comparably long proboscis, which is of about the same length as the mesosoma (see Key to species).
