Holotype [not dissected]: [ MOROCCO : ] Azrou, Atlas, 17.4.33 / Freyi Brh. Typ. / desiderata / Freyi Brh. Typus unic. Ocyusa / Chicago NHMus M. Bernhauer Collection / Amarochara freyi Bernhauer det. V. Assing 2005 ( FMNH ). Comment. The original description of Ocyusa freyi is explicitly based on a single holotype specimen from "Atlas (Azron)" ( Bernhauer 1940 ). An examination of the holotype ( Fig. 19 ), which was found while browsing through the Oxypodini collection at the FMNH, revealed that it refers to the genus Amarochara and that it is conspecific with—and consequently the senior synonym of— A. splendens Jarrige, 1952 . Since this species is readily distinguished from its congeners by external characters alone, the holotype was not dissected. A diagnosis and figures of the genitalia are provided by Assing (2002a) .
