Type specimens of Hymenoptera deposited in the Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo, Brazil (excluding Aculeata)

Abstract

The present paper lists the type specimens of Hymenoptera, excluding Aculeata, deposited

Type specimens of Chrysidoidea (Hymenoptera) deposited in the Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo, Brazil

“…Throughout the years, the collection increased in size and importance due to the efforts of many collaborators, acquisition of smaller collections, deposit of material from other institutions and by researchers and as a result of Biota/FAPESP and INCT-HYMPAR/Sudeste (CNPq/FAPESP) programs (Onody et al, 2014).…”

“…Catalogues of ants (Brandão, 1991;Klingenberg & Brandão, 2005;Brandão et al, 2010;Esteves et al, 2011;Prado & Brandão, 2013;Ulysséa & Brandão, 2013;Ulysséa et al, 2015), bees (Ramos et al, 2015) and "Symphyta" & "Parasitica" wasps (Onody et al, 2014) were issued in order to accomplish this recommendation. We present here the first compiled list of Chrysidoidea wasps type specimens deposited in the Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo.…”

Type specimens of Pompiloidea, Thynnoidea and Vespoidea (Hymenoptera) deposited in the Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo, Brazil

“…This paper is part of a series of lists being published to cover the Hymenoptera type specimens deposited in the entomological collection of MZSP. Until this moment, the following catalogues have been published: ants (Brandão, 1991;Klingenberg & Brandão, 2005;Brandão et al, 2010;Esteves et al, 2011;Prado & Brandão, 2013;Ulysséa & Brandão, 2013;Ulysséa et al, 2015), bees (Ramos et al, 2015), "Symphyta" & "Parasitica" wasps (Onody et al, 2014) and Chrysidoidea wasps (Santos et al, 2017). These initiatives agree with the 72F of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN, fourth edition, January 1999) recommendation making information about these types available to researches.…”

Type specimens of bees (Hymenoptera, Apidae) deposited in the Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo, Brazil

“…Additionally, a large dataset of primary types imagens in high-resolution is provided. This paper is part of a series of lists being published to cover the Hymenoptera deposited in the entomological collection of MZSP (Klingenberg & Brandão, 2005;Brandão et al, 2010;Esteves et al, 2011;Prado & Brandão, 2013;Ulysséa & Brandão, 2013;Onody et al, 2014). These initiatives are in agreement with efforts from various institutions to document their type specimen holdings as recommended the Article 72F.4 of the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN, fourth edition, January 1999), which regards the documentation of the specimens type as an institutional responsibility.…”
