60. Andrena (Holandrena) forsterella Osytshnjuk, 1978

ASCHER & PICKERING (2021).

MATERIAL EXAMINED. BULGARIA: • 1♀, Arkutino , 1–31.vii.1968, leg. A. Görtler, OÖLM ; • 1♀, Kresna , 12.vii.1990, leg. B. & O. Tkalců, OÖLM ; • 1♂, Trakia , Proslav, 15.viii.1996, leg. A. Zaykov, OÖLM ; • 1♂, 1♀, Varvara , 6–12.viii.1970, leg. Kocourek, OÖLM .

NOTE. No primary sources could be found to support the Ascher and Pickering listing, as the taxon was not listed in the revision of the subgenus Holandrena of SCHÖNITZER et al. (1995), though material was listed from Greece and North Macedonia, but examined material shows that the species is indeed present in Bulgaria.
