Notes

Baker (1993: 202) wrote the following:

“A ♂ found in the UMO general collection, ex Saunders’ collection, labelled ‘Mak.’ [blue disc] and Coelioxys fulvifrons . Smith’ [blue paper], is the hitherto unrecognized HOLOTYPE of this species, and it has now been labelled accordingly. Unfortunately, the metasoma, from segment 2, is lost, but the type is otherwise intact”.
