Orlovskytė et al 2016 described two new species which key out with the true ignita (couplets 14 and 15, pages 784 and 785). C. horridula is new to iNaturalist. C. parietis had been added at some point but was erroneously not included in the ignita complex.

All or almost all of the IDs which this split will shift from species ignita to complex ignita should be at complex ignita anyway. They have been entered by users who either do not realise that there are ruby-tailed wasps besides Chrysis ignita, or do not realise how difficult the complex is to separate. Some overconfident IDs have been encouraged by overconfident computer vision.

I have moved the one subspecies bischoffi observation ahead of this split (144204). I have checked that there are no species ignita IDs by users I know to be experts in these taxa, but there may be some IDs I have missed which have been made my experts with a feel for the species. These IDs should be reassessed either in light of Orlovskytė et al, or if that paper had been considered, in light of how the addition of the new species changes the concept of species ignita in iNaturalist's taxonomy.
