Description
Trichrysis imperiosa (Smith, 1874)
(Figs 80 A–80F)
Chrysis imperiosus Smith, 1874: 460. Lectotype ♀ designated by Bohart in Kimsey & Bohart 1991: 533; Australia: Queensland, Moreton Bay (NHMUK). Chrysis imperiosa: du Buysson 1898a: 142 (Hindoustan [= India]: Karnataka: Kanara; Maharashtra: Poona [= Pune]); Bingham 1903: 438 (key), 479–480 (descr., Sikhim [= Sikkim]; West Bengal: Barrakpore), 479 (fig. 159), pl. I (fig. 13). Chrysis (Pentachrysis) imperiosa: Bischoff 1910: 486 (cat., Assam, West Bengal: Darjeeling). Chrysis (Trichrysis) imperiosa: Roy & Kundu 1985: 227 (Arunachal Pradesh: Namdhapa [=Namdapha]). Praestochrysis imperiosa: Strumia 1996: 62 (India, descr.), 61 (fig. 3).
Material examined: 2 ♀, Meghalaya, Khasia Hills, wihtout further data (ETHZ); 1 ♀, Kerala, Travancore, v.1935 (MNLU); 1 ♀, Kerala, Quilon, Thenmala, leg. Nathan, without further data (PRC).
Distribution. India (Assam; Karnataka; Kerala; Maharashtra; Meghalaya; Sikkim; West Bengal; Arunachal Pradesh); China (Taiwan, Hunan, Guangdong, Hainan) (Rosa et al. 2016a); Australia, Myanmar, Sri Lanka (Bingham 1903); Vietnam (Kimsey & Bohart 1991); Indonesia, Nepal, Papua New Guinea, Thailand (Rosa et al. 2016a).
Remarks. Several species are currently found under the name Trichrysis imperiosa (B. Wiśniowski, in litteris). The Indian species should belong to Trichrysis cupreidorsus (Tsuneki, 1963) (holotype from Thailand), which was syonymized by Kimsey & Bohart (1991: 533) with Praestochrysis lusca (Fabricius, 1804), without type examination. Also, the Chinese specimens identified as T. imperiosa from Guandong (Rosa et al. 2016a) should belong to a different species.
