Plagiognathus diversus cruralis
Van Duzee,
1917b: 283 (n. var.).
This taxon was originally described as a variety of
Plagiognathus diversus
Van Duzee
(=
Europiella artemisiae
(Becker))
. Examination of specimens from the
California
Academy of Sciences, including a
paratype
and others identified by Van Duzee as
cruralis
,
indicates that it is neither a species of
Europiella
nor of
Plagiognathus
.
The taxon is correctly placed in
Tuxedo
.
