Historical notes on Walter Linsenmaier, his entomological career and his Chrysididae collection are given. The purpose of this article is to supply the main results obtained during the @entity72130 digitalization project and the subsequent reorganization of the Chrysididae collection housed in the Natur-Museum Luzern (Switzerland); we also provide the complete list of the 720 taxa described by the Swiss author (species-group and genus-group names). Observations on the type material is given. A new synonymy (valid name is first) is proposed for: C. consanguinea Mocs  ry, 1889 = C. consanguinea iberica Linsenmaier, 1959, @entity15735 . nov.; C. pyrophana Dahlbom, 1854 = C. pyrophana var. orionea Linsenmaier, 1951, @entity15735 . nov.; Hedychridium elegantulum du Buysson, 1887 = H. hybridum Linsenmaier, 1959, @entity15735 . nov.; H. perpunctatum Balthasar, 1953 = H. insequosum Linsenmaier, 1959, @entity15735 . nov.; Euchroeus (Pseudospinolia) incrassatus (Spinola, 1838) = E. (P.) humboldti jerichoensis Linsenmaier, 1959, @entity15735 . nov. A new replacement name Chrysis vulcanica Rosa, nom. nov. is proposed for Chrysis brevicollis Linsenmaier, 1987, nom praeocc., nec Mocs  ry, 1899. The lectotype of Chrysis auriceps Linsenmaier, 1959 is designated.
