Revalidation of genus Chrysellampus Semenov, 1932, with description of two new species from China (Hymenoptera, Chrysididae)

Abstract

The genus Chrysellampus Semenov, 1932 is revalidated. Chinese species are revised and keyed for the first time. Five species are recorded, two of them are new for science: Chrysellampus obtusidentibus Rosa, Wei & Xu, sp. nov. (Yunnan), and C. proximocellis Rosa, Wei & Xu, sp. nov. (Gansu and Yunnan). New synonymy for Chrysellampus Semenov, 1932 (=Parellampus Semenov, 1932, syn. nov.) and new combination for C. praeteritorum (Semenov, 1932), comb. nov. are proposed.
