PTEROMALIDAE OF N.W. EUROPE 89 



Lamprostylus auricollis Forster. Type $, neighbourhood of Aachen, Germany, in 

 Naturhistorisches Museum, Vienna. The species was synonymized with spiendi- 

 dulus Spinola by Ruschka (1924a : 93). Dalla Torre (1898) listed splendidulus as a 

 synonym of Ichneumon cyaneus Fabricius (1798 : 231). Peck (in Muesebeck et al., 

 I 95 I : 539) a l so cites splendidula Spinola and cyaneus Fabricius as being synonymous. 

 Steffan (1952 : 73) pointed out that this was incorrect, and synonymized Ichneumon 

 cyaneus Fabricius with Perilampus ruficornis (F.). I have myself seen the type of 

 cyaneus in the Bosc collection in Paris, and can confirm Steffan's statement.
