Remarks
Kieffer (1914)
described several species based on a loan of Förster’s specimens from
Vienna
. However, he did not label these specimens. Their identity can be inferred from the locality (Aachen, or Aix-la-Chapelle in Kieffer’s French description) and often from a shared name, since Kieffer would use Förster’s nomina nuda as his own.
