[7iec *8tigmus Ltr. Cons. G^n. Crust-Ins. 325, 438 no. 491 

 (1810)— Type : minutus ¥. (Diodontus Crt.).] 



Stigmus was first introduced in the Erlangen List (1801). 

 but without exponents, and did not become vahdated until 

 1804, when Panzer (Fn. Ins. Germ. 86"7) pubhshed " Stigmus 

 pendulus Mihi," without citing any author for Stigmus — 

 it seems therefore that Panzer must be treated as author 

 and the genus as " monobasic." In the following year 

 (1806 — Krit. Rev. 271) Panzer stated that he no longer 

 possessed a specimen of Stigmus pendulus and therefore 

 could say nothing about its mouth-characters — a full de- 

 scription was furnished by Jurine in 1807, Latreille, in 

 1810, cited Pemphredon minutus F. as the type of Stigfnus 

 — but this was not an original type, nor was it congeneric 

 with pendulus, being in fact a Diodontus Crt.
