- <p><b><i>Apolysis parvula</i> (Efflatoun, 1945) comb. nov.</b></p><p><i>Usia parvula</i> Efflatoun, 1945: 229.</p><p><b>Type material</b> (not examined)</p><p><b>Syntypes</b></p><p>EGYPT • 2 ♂♂; “ Wadi Ehameib (West Gebel Elba, South-Eastern Desert) 28 February 1938 Leg. Mohamed Tewfik Effendi”; ESEC.</p><p>Photograph of the draw in ESEC shows two specimens with red labels standing over this name. At the time the photograph was taken they both appear to be intact, but the resolution is insufficient to be sure of their condition.</p><p><b>Remarks</b></p><p>This very small species keys next to <i>A. elbae</i> in Efflatoun (1945) and is compared to this species in the original description. The diagnostic characters Efflatoun (1945) uses to identify his two specimens from <i>A. elbae</i> are smaller head and darker legs with yellow-red colour of knees less extensive. Characters apparent in the illustrations in Efflatoun (1945) and the Smithsonian Archives plate [Image no. SIA2012- 7891] also show this taxon to be <i>Apolysis</i>, eyes extensively confluent, A 1 running straight to wing margin with long petiole to anal cell, shape of postpedicel apparently with apical arista and type of hypopygium.</p><p><b>Distribution</b></p><p>Egypt (Wadi Ehameib, West Gebel Elba, South-eastern Desert).</p>
