Eucera (Macrocera) W. F. Kirbyi Kohl, 1906: 7 (new combination, replacement name, nec Eucera antennata Fabricius, 1793 ).

Eucera (Macrocera) W. F. Kirbyi Kohl, 1907: 175 (junior homonym and objective synonym).

Eucera (Tetralonia) kirbyi Friese, 1909: 379 View in CoL (461) (new subgeneric combination, unjustified emendation), syn. nov.

Material examined. Sokotra, 1♀, ii.1899, O. Simony lgt., F. Kohl det.; Sokotra, Ras Shoab, 1♀, i.1899, O. Simony

Remarks. All species names associated with this taxon are missing in the world bee checklist ( ASCHER & PICKERING 2017). The species belongs to the nominotypical subgenus of the genus Tetraloniella Ashmead, 1899 , according to characters presented by MICHENER (2007). However, genus Tetraloniella is synonymized with Tetralonia and placed as a subgenus of Eucera based on molecular phylogeny ( DORCHIN et al. 2017).

Species name Eucera W. F. Kirbyi ( KOHL 1906, 1907) is available as “ wfkirbyi ” according to ICZN article 32.5.2.4.4 ( ICZN 1999), Eucera kirbyi Friese, 1909 being its unjustified emendation and junior objective synonym.

Distribution. Endemic to Socotra. Reported from Homhil ( KIRBY 1900, 1903) and Ras Shoab ( KOHL 1906, 1907).
