Chrysis thakur Mocsáry, 1913

( Figs 63 A–63F)

Chrysis (Hexachrysis) Thakur Mocsáry, 1913: 22 . Lectotype ♂ designated by Bohart in Bohart & French 1986: 343; Myanmar: Tenasserim (HMNH) (examined).

Chrysis thakur: Kimsey & Bohart 1991: 471 (cat., Western India, smaragdula group).

Distribution. India (Western India (locality not specified)). Widespread from Western India to Taiwan ( Kimsey & Bohart 1991).

Remarks. Chrysis thakur belongs to the oculata group and not to the smaragdula group, for its shortened flagellomere I. It could be the male of Ch. schioedtei however more material is needed to confirm this speculation.
