Spaeth. | Südafrika [g, hw, sf, bf] || ZMH 823537 [w, bf, sf]” ( ZMH ) . Current Status. Valid species ( Borowiec 2002 ). Remarks. Psalidoma holubi was described based on a series of specimens from the collection of O. Nickerl (currently part of the NMP collection), and part of the series was retained by Spaeth. They were collected by E. Holub during his second expedition to South Africa . As Spaeth (1899) did not select one specimen as the type, all specimens are syntypes . Borowiec (2002) intended to designate a lectotype for this species, as he listed the syntypes as “ lectotype and 6 paralectotypes ”, but did not provide an adequate statement of designation. Therefore, the requirements of Article 74.7.3 ( ICZN 1999 ) were not met, and the specimens remain syntypes . However, we have examined the series and it is consistent; thus, there is no formal need for a lectotype designation.
