Treatment

26. Andrena (Plastandrena) pilipes Fabricius, 1775 View in CoL

Andrena pilipes Fabricius, 1775: 474 View in CoL , [ Italy, type lost].

Andrena dolorosa Nurse, 1904: 563 View in CoL , ♀ [ Pakistan, NHMUK, examined].

Listed by

Nurse (1904); Meena & Dey (2019); Ascher & Pickering (2023).

Material examined

PAKISTAN • 1 ♀; Peshin [Pishin]; 1–30 Apr. 1903; C.G. Nurse leg.; NHMUK (syntype of A. dolorosa ) • 1 ♀; 1–31 Mar. 1902; C.G. Nurse leg.; NHMUK (syntype of A. dolorosa ) .

Remarks

Nurse (1904) noted that this species was “very common at all elevations in Kashmir”. We have not been able to examine any material, but retain this listing as the distribution is plausible, since the species is widespread across Central Asia south to Pakistan, and Kashmir contains more Palaearctic faunal elements than the remaining parts of the Indian Himalayas.

Distribution

West and Central Palaearctic to China ( Gusenleitner & Schwarz 2002; Ascher & Pickering 2023).
