Abstract

Corsica stands as one of the largest Mediterranean Islands and has been the exploration ground for renowned entomologists like Charles Ferton. However, no synthesis on Corsican bees has been published so far. To fill this gap in knowledge, we propose an overview of the megachilid bee fauna of the island based on fieldwork, a thorough examination of material housed at the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle (MNHN, Paris), data compilation from various collections and a comprehensive review of existing literature. We reviewed 5,886 specimens and we extracted 279 additional data from literature sources. These data confirm the presence in Corsica of 91 species of which two are endemic, including Hoplitis corsaria (Warncke, 1991) which is elevated to species rank stat. nov. One new synonymy is established: Megachile lucidifrons Ferton, syn. nov. of Megachile albocristata Smith, 1853. The presence in Corsica of 19 species is regarded as dubious or erroneous. Finally, the types of Megachilid bees housed at MNHN and described based on Corsican material are illustrated. Lectotypes are designated for Megachile sicula var. corsica Benoist, 1935, Osmia corsica Ferton, 1901, Osmia erythrogastra Ferton, 1905, Osmia lanosa Pérez, 1879, and Osmia lineola Pérez, 1895.

科西嘉巨蜂注释核对表（膜翅目，巨蜂科）

科西嘉岛是地中海最大的岛屿之一，也是查尔斯-费尔顿等著名昆虫学家的探索之地。然而，迄今为止还没有出版过关于科西嘉蜜蜂的综述。为了填补这一知识空白，我们基于实地考察、对巴黎国家自然历史博物馆（MNHN，巴黎）所藏材料的彻底检查、从各种收藏中收集的数据汇编以及对现有文献的全面回顾，提出了对该岛巨型蜜蜂动物群的概述。我们查阅了 5886 份标本，并从文献资料中提取了 279 项补充数据。这些数据证实科西嘉岛存在 91 个物种，其中 2 个为特有种，包括 Hoplitis corsaria（Warncke，1991 年），该物种被提升为新种。建立了一个新的异名：Megachile lucidifrons Ferton，Megachile albocristata Smith 的同义新种，1853 年。科西嘉岛有 19 个物种被认为是可疑或错误的。最后，对保存在 MNHN 并根据科西嘉材料描述的 Megachilid 蜜蜂类型进行了说明。corsica Benoist, 1935、茭白 corsica Ferton, 1901、茭白 erythrogastra Ferton, 1905、茭白 lanosa Pérez, 1879 和茭白 lineola Pérez, 1895。
