Description: | [North America] from type description This species was described by Fabricius on the basis of specimen(s) in the Yeats collection. William Hunter acquired Thomas Pattinson Yeats' collection by bequest. This specimen might be regarded as a possible syntype, being an additional specimen from the collection. It was normal practice in Hunter's collection for only two to be placed in the main series and 'extras' were in other drawers at the end of the series.
William Hunter's collection was utilised by Fabricius and Olivier in describing many new species.
The collection contains types from other contemporary eighteenth century entomologists such as D. Drury and T.P. Yeats. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | ARTHINSECT : HYMENOPTERA : SIRICIDAE : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
