Some taxonomic and nomenclatural changes in American Mantodea (Insecta, Dictyoptera) — Part I Author Agudelo, Antonio A. Author Rivera, Julio text Zootaxa 2015 3936 3 335 356 journal article 10.11646/zootaxa.3936.3.2 a4827e36-2f9e-4ef5-bc4d-78a5d9c84036 1175-5326 239047 D91E40F5-C602-4EAF-A4B1-86593A33BDA2 Photina Burmeister, 1838 As in the previous Tithrone species, Tithrone catharinensis also was classified in the wrong genus ( Piza, 1961 ). The female holotype (from Pinhal, Santa Catharina state, Brazil ), also deposited at ESALQ, was found to be a member of Photina Burmeister, 1838 ( Fig. 7 a). Further analyses of this material and the holotype of Photina laevis Giglio- Tos, 1915 (from the same locality) ( Fig. 7 b), the latter recently recognized as the female of P. vitrea by Agudelo (2014b) , revealed T. catharinensis also as conspecific to P. vitrea . The complete list of synonyms known for this species is as follows: Photina vitrea ( Burmeister, 1838 ) Mantis ( Photina ) vitrea Burmeister, 1838 = Mantis pellucida Serville, 1839 = Mantis longicornis Charpentier, 1841 = Cardioptera translucida Saussure, 1869 = Cardioptera [ Mantis ( Photina ) ] vitrea ( Burmeister, 1838 ) = Photina gracilis Giglio-Tos, 1915 = Photina laevis Giglio-Tos, 1915 = Tithrone catharinensis Piza,1961 n . syn.
