Halictus (Halictus) tetrazonius Klug in Germar, 1817 View in CoL

Distribution: Southern Europe ( Pauly et al. 2016).

Notes: Halictus tetrazonius is another Halictus species that cannot be confidently identified in the female sex. This species has been misidentified in the past, and is probably absent from France ( Pauly et al. 2016) and Iberia ( Ortiz-Sánchez & Pauly 2017). Because the only records from Portugal were made from female material, the species is removed from the Portuguese list.

Lasioglossum (Dialictus) mandibulare (Morawitz, 1866) and Lasioglossum (Dialictus) aglyphum (Pérez, 1895)

Distribution: Mediterranean basin ( Pauly 2016b).

Records: PORTUGAL: Algarve , Tavira, Santa Luiza, 30.v.2016, 1♂, det. as Lasioglossum aglyphum by A.W. Ebmer, leg. A. Livory & R. Coulomb .

Notes: Currently only L. mandibulare is recorded from Portugal ( Baldock et al. 2018). The taxonomic status of L. aglyphum is unclear, and it may be a subspecies of L. mandibulare that is found in North Africa, Sicily, Israel, and Iran ( Pauly 2016b). For now, material from Portugal is best referred to as L. mandibulare until this situation has been clarified.
