Pimpla nordenskioldii Holmgren, 1872, Ofvers. Svenska Vetensk.-Akad. Forh., 

 vol. 29, part 6, p. 97; 9- Lectotype (hereby designated): 9, labeled 

 "Gronland, Nordenskj. Exp.," and labeled lectotype by Townes in 1958 

 (Stockholm). 



Hind tibia fulvoferruginous, its apical 0.4 ± infuscate or fuscous 

 and its basal 0.6 ± often weakly infuscate; hind tarsus fuscous; 

 wings averaging a little paler than in the subspecies longigenalis. 

 In diminutive males, the legs are sometimes mostly blackish. 



European and American specimens of this form are very similar, 

 but according to our material American specimens have the femora a 

 little darker ferruginous and a little less densely hairy. There is 

 a second Arctic or Arctic-Alpine species in Europe that is currently 

 confused with the subspecies sodalis. In this second species the body 

 hairs are much longer than in C. sodalis and the petiolar region of 

 the propodeum has dense recurved hairs. In true sodalis the petiolar 

 region of the propodeum is hairless. This second species does not 

 occur in America, so it need not be considered further at this time. 

 Specimens from Iceland, the type locality of sodalis, are all sodalis as 

 interpreted here.
