Priocnemis granulosa (Tsuneki, 1989), comb. nov.

Minagenia granulosa Tsuneki, 1989 . Japan Hymenopterists Association, v. 35, pg. 168–170.

Type examined. Holotype. ♂, Formosa, Chiayi-Hsien, Shihtzulu, 29.vii.1966, T. Tano, USNM.

Remarks. Priocnemis granulosa belongs to the genus Priocnemis based on the following combination of characters for the male that separate it from Minagenia: the eye width is less than 2 × the genal width in lateral view; the pronotum with a short anterior face; the fore wing 3m-cu ends much closer to the basal third of the lower SMC3; and T1 is petiolate and elongated. The fore wing 3rs-m angles posteriorly instead of curving.

This species keys to Priocnemis in Shimizu’s (1996) key to the genera of Japan. However, it does not match with any identified Priocnemis species known from Japan. The SGP of the holotype is broken on a point mount, but even in this condition the SGP appears wide and almost lobed like in other Priocnemis specimens.
