Type locality:
Madagascar
: Andrahomana [Southern
Madagascar
].
Current status:
Junior synonym of
Lestomerus noctis
(Distant, 1902) (
Villiers 1968b: 36
)
.
Remarks:
The synonymy proposed by
Villiers (1968b)
was ignored by
Maldonado (1990: 360)
who listed
Lestomerus piceipes
as a valid species.
The type locality is spelled in two ways: “Andrahomana” and “Andrahimana”. According to
Viette (1991)
the first spelling is correct.
