EB04879C11249553ADE1FC2DBB19FECE.taxon	discussion	Remark: Wu (1983: 222) originally designated types including holotype (♀), allotype (♂), and two paratypes (♀♀), but only one paratype was found in IOZ / IZCAS. Brooks (1988: 571), Wu (2000: 293), and Ascher & Pickering (2024) treated the taxon as synonym of Amegilla (Glossamegilla) pseudobomboides (Meade-Waldo, 1914). Amegilla bombiomorpha is clearly very near A. pseudobomboides (Meade-Waldo, 1914. The type of A. pseudobomboides in NHMUK (labelled as a ♀ “ Assam W. F. Badgley 1906 - 185 ”, “ NHMUK 014025171 ”; https: // data. nhm. ac. uk / dataset / 56 e 711 e 6 - c 847 - 4 f 99 - 915 a- 6894 bb 5 c 5 dea / resource / 05 ff 2255 - c 38 a- 40 c 9 - b 657 - 4 ccb 55 ab 2 feb / record / 9078698) is actually as a male. Unfortunately, this type is not a female as it is written on the original label but a male, making careful comparison impossible with the available paratype ♀ available. One of us (PR) examined further specimens from RMNH museum: 1 ♀ A. pseudobomboides (Meade-Waldo) labelled “ Lissango, Everest route, NEPAL, 1600 m, 13 - 9 - 1974 B. Kiauta, M. Brink & J. M. van Brink leg ”, 2 ♂♂ and 3 ♀♀ A. bombiomorpha Wu labelled “ FUKIEN, S. China, Kionyang Hwangkeng 3. IX. 1943 T. Maa ” (1 ♀, 1 ♂); FUKIEN, S. China, Kionyang Liutun 2. X. 1943 T. Maa ” (1 ♀); FUKIEN, S. China, Shaowu, Tachnian, 5 – 12. VIII. 1945 T. Maa ” (1 ♀); “ NW Vietnam, Tonkin, Hoang Lien N. R., 15 km W Sa Pa, c. 1900 m, 15 – 21. x. 1999 (Malaise trap) C. v. Achterberg RMNH’ 99 ” (1 ♂); Without to be able to make a complete comparison, we can make the next differences in males: in bombiomorpha mesonotum, the hairs are all grayish with only few black hairs intermixed between tegulae, designing a weak interalar band (in pseudobomboides all dorsal part of pronutum and mesonotum covered with black hairs); T 1 is greyish, T 2 is black with few reddish hairs on lateral margins (in pseudobomboides T 2 covered with yellowish hairs with only balck hairs on sides), T 3 – 7 are covered with reddish hairs (in pseudobomboides only margin of T 3 and whole T 4 – 7 with reddish hairs); legs with reddish cuticula and reddish-orange hairs (in pseudobomboides legs with all black except a small spot of orange hairs at top of hind tibiae). It is to be noticed that the bombiomorpha ♂ from Vietnam has mostly black hairs on legs. We have not found any structural detail between the taxa. It is especially noticeable that the ♂ genitalia of the Himalayan pseudobomboides and the Fukien’s bombiomorpha are totally identical, even in the smallest details of pilosity.

EB04879C1127955EADE1F8C1BA4DFC52.taxon	discussion	Remark: The subgeneric status of this taxon was not designated by Wu (1990: 248). The holotype identification label with the subgeneric status was added by Wu in 2000. Despite this classification in Amegilla s. s., several features are more relevant to Micramegilla, especially in the shape of male gonocoxae, as the external brush at top of gonocoxae and the small patch of strong setae at the middle of external side of gonocoxae. The pale facial marking is also more in accordance to Micramegilla. Amegilla mongolica Wu appears quite similar to the Mediterranean species Amegilla (Micramegilla) andresi (Friese, 1914) (type serie NHMB examined by PR) but it is difficult to go further in assessing synonymy beyond this superficial ressemblance.	en	Niu, Ze-Qing, Yuan, Feng, Luo, Arong, Zhou, Qing-Song, Orr, Michael, Rasmont, Pierre, Zhu, Chao-Dong (2025): The types of Anthophorinae (Hymenoptera: Apidae) described by Yan-Ru Wu and held in the main museum of the Chinese National Animal Collection Resource Center.

EB04879C112F9545ADE1FD3DBAD5FD56.taxon	discussion	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.

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.

EB04879C1136954CADE1FA67BAF8FE26.taxon	discussion	Remark: The subgenus of this taxon was not designated by Wu (1990: 418). Brooks (1988: 476) placed the taxon into the subgenus Paramegilla. Wu (2000) added the holotype identification label with this subgenus assignment. Nevertheless, P. Rasmont labelled the taxon as subgenus Caranthophora. Anthophora furcotibialis has a very special morphology of hind tibias and basitarsis, as it is also the case in most of Caranthophora and Paramegilla species, explaining this hesitation. However, the genitalia of subgenus Caranthophora show especially broadened penis valves, that is not the case in any Paramegilla. The genitalia of A. furcotibialis are similar to those of most Paramegilla with no broadened penis valvae. Shape of St 7 and St 8 are also much more similar to Paramegilla than Caranthophora. For these reasons, we choose here to follow Brooks (1988), Wu (2000) and Ascher & Pickering (2024) in assigning A. furcotibialis to the subgenus Paramegilla. Wu (2000) designated another male (holds labels: Xizang, Shajia, Jiding, 22. VIII. 1982, coll. Luosang, Bianba, Sengmujiu // Anthophora (Paramegilla) furcotibialis Wu, ♂, ǎîx: Dzě 如 [det.

Rasmont, 2019) as the holotype of this taxon, but this is an invalid designation. This specimen dated 22. VIII. 1982 is erroneously labelled “ HOLOTYPE ”. Indeed, only the true HOLOTYPE specimen dated “ 17. VI. 1982 ” was cited in the original descrition of this species.	en	Niu, Ze-Qing, Yuan, Feng, Luo, Arong, Zhou, Qing-Song, Orr, Michael, Rasmont, Pierre, Zhu, Chao-Dong (2025): The types of Anthophorinae (Hymenoptera: Apidae) described by Yan-Ru Wu and held in the main museum of the Chinese National Animal Collection Resource Center.

(Caranthophora) kneuckeri Alfken, 1938 from Egypt (Holotype ♀ examined by PR in NHMB).
