The taxonomic situation of this subspecies needs to be clarified.Additionally, Anthidium strigatum crassepunctatum Popov, 1935 has been synonymised with A. strigatum by Warncke (1980). Synonymy criticised by Schwarz & Gusenleitner (2003). Whether humerale and strigatum should be regarded as valid taxa still needs to be clarified.
