Current status: Anthophora (Anthomegilla) wuae Brooks, 1988 View in CoL .

Remark: Anthophora wuae Brooks,1988 is a nomen novum pro Anthophora sinensis ( Wu, 1982) nec Clisodon sinensis Wu,1982 (= Anthophora sinensis (Wu)) . As first revisor, Brooks conserved the name Anthophora (Clisodon) sinensis (Wu) and proposed the name Anthophora (Anthomegilla) wuae Brooks for the other taxon.

The subgenus of this taxon was not designated by Wu (1982: 412) and the original species identification labels were all lost. Wu (2000) added the identification labels with the subgeneric status proposed by Brooks (1988). Two A. xizangensis Wu paratype specimens (1♀ (IOZ(E)205485), Xizang, Pulan County, Baga, 4700 m, 18.VII.1976, leg. Fu-Sheng Huang and 1♀ (IOZ(E)205486), Xizang, Rutog County, Rebangzhabu, 4700 m, 26.VII.1976, leg. Fu-Sheng Huang) hold the identification label Anthophora xizangensis det. by P. Rasmont as paratypes of Anthophora xizangensis , but they are paratypes of Anthophora (Anthomegilla) wuae Brooks, 1988 . One paratype (1♂ (IOZ(E)210503), Xinjiang, Baicheng County, Aqikesu, 2400 m, 21.V.1978, leg. Ying-Hen Han) holds the identification label Anthophora wuae det. P. Rasmont as paratype of Anthophora wuae , but it is actually Anthophora arctica Morawitz, 1883 .

Distribution: China (Gansu, Xinjiang, Xizang).
