Cerceris capito
LEPELETIER
DE
SAINT FARGEAU, 1845
Note:
In my former publication of
Cerceris
of the Subsaharan region (DOLLFUSS 2020) I recorded
10 ♀♀
and
22♂♂
from
Mali
. These specimens were determinated by K. M. Guichard 1992 as:
Cerceris capito
LEPELETIER
=
spinipectus
SMITH. Probably Guichard
means
C. capito
and
C. spinipectus
are synonym. K.
SCHMIDT (2000: 97)
wrote: "Die Männchen von
C. spinipectus
and
C. capito
sind morphologisch nicht sicher zu trennen". I am also of the opinion that these two species should be synonymized.
