Remarks
. Delucchi described the female and stated`
Type
am Nat. Museum in
Wien
.’ but did not specify the number of specimens he had. One female and
one male
(mp) from the FoÈrster collection in the
NMW
and provided with Delucchi’s identi®cation label are not considered as part of the
type
series, since their data were not mentioned and the male was not described.
Examination of the name-bearing
types
and a further
six females
from
England
,
Hungary
, and
Switzerland
(

) con®rmed the apparent synonymy of
agreste
with
Seladerma convexum
Walker
as suggested by
Graham (1969: 206)
.
Status
