A catalogue of the types of Diapriinae (Hymenoptera, Diapriidae) at the Natural History Museum, London Author Notton, David G. text European Journal of Taxonomy 2014 2014-02-26 75 1 123 journal article 21797 10.5852/ejt.2014.75 34311ed9-34bd-47f8-87cc-f4d34ce42eee 2118-9773 3862773 E02C736E-661D-407F-9322-24BFB95E233E Mantara bifurcata Dodd, 1920: 380 . Valid name Aneuropria bifurcata ( Dodd, 1920 ) comb. nov. Summary of types Holotype ♀ , BMNH number 9.677, by original designation . Paratypes ♀ , ♂ . Primary type data 1081.; Type; Madeira./ Wollaston./ 55.7; Mantara / bifurcata/ Dodd ♀ ; Holotype ♀ / Mantara / bifurcata Dodd / L.Huggert-81. Type locality Madeira. Remarks This species was described from two females and a male, referred to in the original description as a “type” and “cotypes”. Three specimens matching the description were found, one of the females has Dodd’s identification label, and this is considered to be the holotype by original designation. The holotype is mounted on a card, with the left antenna mounted separately. Mantara bifurcata is actually a species of Aneuropria Kieffer, 1905 . Since Mantara bifurcata is the type species of Mantara , this means Mantara Dodd, 1920 is a junior synonym of Aneuropria Kieffer, 1905 syn. nov. Aneuropria bifurcata comb. nov. is clearly a different species (in head shape, antennal proportions and the lack of notauli) from the widespread European A. foersteri Kieffer, 1910 , which is also found in Madeira.
