Abstract: Pentachrysis inaequalis (Dahlbom, 1845) Chrysis inaequalis Dahlbom, 1845:8. Neotype ♂ designated by Rosa & Vårdal, 2015:124; Switzerland: Roveredo, 28.viii.1948, leg. W. Linsenmaier (Luzern) (inaequalis group). Chrysis inaequalis: Rosa et al., 2013:22 (West-Azarbaijan, Tehran); Rosa, 2020:466 (Fars, Kerman, Tehran). Distribution. Iran (West-Azarbaijan, Tehran). Euroasiatic, from Western Europe to Central Asia and China (Rosa et al., 2014). Remarks. Linsenmaier (1959a) correctly placed the inaequalis group in the subgenus Pentachrysis Lichtenstein. Kimsey & Bohart (1991) elevated Pentachrysis to genus rank but included the inaequalis group in the genus Chrysis Linnaeus, 1761. Molecular analyses (Pauli et al., 2019) proved that members of the inaequalis group are related to Pentachrysis, thus confirming Linsenmaier (1959a) intuition.
