Type locality. Palestine: “Jericho 28.II.42 leg. Bytinski-Salz, ♀ Type in coll. m.”.
Holotype, ♀: Jericho Palestine 28.II.1942 Bytinski-Salz // ♀ Type Hedychrum Ltr. scutellare Lins. Linsenmaier det. 1969 // 311 // NML _ENT GBIF00007811 (ex type-collection).
Remarks. Linsenmaier (1969: 373) described Hedychrum scutellare Linsenmaier, 1969 as a new species from Palestine. This name is a junior primary homonym of Hedychrum scutellare Tournier, 1878 (currently Hedychridium scutellare). This homonymy has been overlooked before because all the most important authors erroneously considered H. scutellare Tournier as it had been described in the genus Hedychridium (Rosa et al. 2015). Currently, the two species are no longer congeneric and, as far as we know, after 1899 H. scutellare Tournier was no longer included in the Hedychrum genus. The name H. scutellare Linsenmaier was cited as a valid name only by Schmidt (1977: 102), Kimsey & Bohart (1991: 220), and Strumia & Yıldırım (2009: 83). According to the Article 23.9.5 (“when an author discovers that a species-group name in use is a junior primary homonym [Art. 53.3] of another species-group name also in use, but the names apply to taxa not considered congeneric after 1899, the author must not automatically replace the junior homonym; the case should be referred to the Commission for a ruling under the plenary power and meanwhile prevailing usage of both names is to be maintained [Art. 82]”) the name H. scutellare Linsenmaier, 1969 remains valid and the case will be referred to the Commission on ICZN.
