Remarks. Although the identification label and the printed number match the other identification labels pinned with other type specimens examined by Mocsáry, the locality Lenkoran ( Azerbaijan) was not reported in the original description and for this reason this specimen is not considered type. It was considered variation or aberration of Pseudomalus pusillus (du Buysson in André 1892; Trautmann 1927; Linsenmaier 1951; Móczár 1964b). It was synonymised by Móczár (1964b) with Pseudomalus pusillus ( Fabricius, 1804) and transferred to Pseudomalus Ashmead by Kimsey & Bohart (1991).
