Re: Species synonymy failure

I'm working through our aculeate Hymenoptera records and found the following discrepancy:

Spinolia neglectus and Pseudospinolia neglecta appear to both be preferred current names:
* Pseudospinolia (TVK NBNSYS0100004936 with same preferred) via the Aculeate preferred checklist
* Spinolia (TVK NBNSYS0000009327 with same preferred) via the Recorder 3 list

Re: Species synonymy failure

OK, I will make "S. neglectus (Shuckard, 1836)" a synonym of "Pseudospinolia neglecta (Shuckard, 1836)" - thanks for spotting that :)
