Remark
. Edoardo
Zavattari (1914)
described this species from
two females
(
syntypes
); specifying a
holotype
(
Mickel 1935: 255
) only is not a valid
lectotype
designation according to article 74.5 of ICZN (1999). Denis Broth- ers (unpublished) labelled the specimen in MSNG with Zavattari’s “Typus” label as the
lectotype
, and the other specimen as a
paralectotype
. Since no validly published
lectotype
designation has yet been made, I hereby designate the specimen so labelled by Brothers as the
lectotype
. Thanks to Roberto Poggi I was able to study photos of it.
