Pamphilius virescens Malaise, 1931 (Figs 130, 131) (https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.11405328) Pamphilius virescens Malaise, 1931: 62; Gussakovskij, 1935: 174, 375; Verzhutskij, 1966: 27; Beneš, 1974: 303, 311; Shinohara, 1995: 55; Zhelochovtsev & Zinovjev, 1995: 398; Shinohara, 2002b: 426; Shinohara, 2004: 263; Shinohara & Lelej, 2007: 936, 942; Taeger et al., 2010: 91; Sundukov & Lelej, 2012: 109; Sundukov, 2017: 106; Lee et al., 2019: 11; Shinohara, 2019: 12; Shinohara, 2020: 20, 249. See Shinohara (1995) for more references. Lectotype designation. Malaise (1931) described this species based on “ 2♂♂ und 2♀♀ aus Klutchi, Kamtchatka ” but did not designate a holotype. We hereby designate the female labeled “Typus” in Malaise’s collection (NHRS), as lectotype. It is labeled “ Kamtschatka, Malaise” “Typus” “ Pamphilius virescens Mal. Type Malaise det.” “818”. It was treated as the holotype by Beneš (1974) and Shinohara (1995) and fully redescribed by Beneš (1974). Material examined. Thirteen specimens, including the lectotype, of which 12 are from the Russian Far East and South Korea (Shinohara 1995; present work). New collection data: SOUTH KOREA: Gangwon-do: 1♀, Mirugam (Bukdaesa), 1300m, Odaesan Mts., 1. VI. 2002, A. Shinohara (NSMT). Distribution. Russia (Kamchatka Kraj, Irkutsk Oblast). South Korea. Japan (Hokkaido). Host plant. Unknown. Remarks. This species is known from a small number of specimens (Shinohara 1995) and no molecular data are available. It belongs to the P. gyllenhali subgroup of the P. histrio group (Shinohara 2002b). Lee et al. (2019) gave Salix sp. as a host of this species without showing the source of information. Verzhutskij (1966) speculated that the host of P. virescens was Salix. As discussed by Shinohara (1995), this host record may be correct, but no decisive evidence is available.Published as part of Shinohara, Akihiko, Kramp, Katja & Taeger, Andreas, 2022, The Pamphiliinae of the Russian Far East and Korea (Hymenoptera, Pamphiliidae), pp. 1-251 in Zootaxa 5167 (1) on page 73, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5167.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/687648
