Bo hart — African Chrysis 
283 
Female holotype (COPENHAGEN), KENYA: Tiwi Beach, IV- 
19-76 (H. Gonget). Paratype female, same locality as holotype, IV- 
14-76 (K. Gonget, DAVIS). 
discussion: This species appears to be in the splendidula- 
senegalensis group, and is quite similar to laeta. However, the pre- 
tegular scutal hook of kenyana, as well as the prominent angle on 
the lateral T-III margin (Fig. 8) are distinctive. 
Chrysis krugerana Bohart, new species 
holotype male: Length 8.5 mm. Green with tinges of purple, 
T-III mostly purplish blue, F-I green in front, wings brown except 
toward apex. Punctation moderately coarse and close on vertex and 
notum, punctures of terga mostly 0.5 PD apart. F-I as broad as long 
and slightly longer than pedicel, F-II shorter, F-III a little longer 
than F-I (Fig. 9); scapal basin with close and somewhat transversely 
striatiform punctation, sparsely pubescent on outer one-third; TFC 
strong, weakly and irregularly biconvex (Fig. 9); midocellar area 
slightly indicated; malar and subantennal spaces each 1.7 MOD. 
Pronotum a little shorter than scutellum, median groove weak; 
metanotum rounded; mesopleuron edentate, scrobal and episternal 
sulci strong; propodeal projection sharp, concave behind. T-II mid- 
line a faint welt; T-III with a prominent rounded prepit bulge, lat- 
eral margin nearly straight, pit row moderately impessed, weakly 
divided medially, 4 obtuse distal teeth (Fig. 9), S-II spots ovoid, 3 
MOD apart. 
female: About as in male; F-I-II green in front, F-I 2X as long as 
broad; T-II purple basolaterally. 
Male holotype (PRETORIA-NC), SOUTH AFRICA: Trans- 
vaal Prov., Kruger National Park, Pretoriuskop, 1-17-85 (G. L. 
Princeloo). Paratypes (SOUTH AFRICA, Transvaal), male, fe- 
male, Barberton, XI-11-78 (C. D. Eardley, G. L. Princeloo 
(PRETORIA-NC); male, Hectorspoint, XI-23-73 (A. Strydam, 
PRETORI A-TM); male, 2 females, Lapalala Nature Reserve, 
1-23-87 (R. B. Kimsey, DAVIS). 
discussion: The form of the male antenna (Fig. 9) place this in 
the cerastes group where it is the only known South African species 
of this color and moderate size.
