Valid name Spilomicrus curvispina ( Cameron, 1913 ) . Summary of types Syntype , BMNH number 9.918. Primary type data Type; 359; P.Cameron Coll./ 1914-110; Hoplopria / curvispina/ Cam. Type / Br. Guiana . Type locality Guyana (as British Guiana ). Remarks This species was described from an unspecified number of males. One male was found. Reference to the “male” on p. 135 could equally mean the male sex, so is not clear evidence that there was only one specimen, and the type is treated here as a sole surviving syntype . The syntype is mounted on a card, with the head reglued upside-down, the left hind wing has become detached and is now stuck to the scapes, and the left antenna beyond a6 and parts of the left fore and mid tarsi are missing. The name curvispina does not change its ending in the new combination since it can be considered based on the Latin noun spina , meaning a thorn (Article 31.2.2).
