Type
host:
Trochalopteron lineatum griscenter
(Harert)
[sic] =
Trochalopteron lineatum lineatum
(Vigors)
.
Type
locality:
Kullu

.
Type material:
Holotype
male and
allotype
female [slide
NHML
010709087] deposited in the
NHML
, but not labelled as such. This slide bears one male and one female with labels reading “
Bruelia
” with a “
T
” in red ink and “Sehri”, plus the host genus name and the same collecting data given by
Ansari (
1956g
: 143)
. On the reverse of this slide, another label reads “
Bruelia sehri
Ansari, 1955
” /“(?
Paratypes
”).
Ansari (
1956g
: 143)
designated a
holotype
male and an
allotype
female only, without any
paratype
. The logical conclusion is that the male and female on slide
NHML
010709087 are the
holotype
and the
allotype
respectively, a conclusion also reached by
Gustafsson
et al.
(2019b: 455)
