Notes
:—
Tuyama (1935)
simultaneously designated
two specimens
in TI as types, “
T. Tuyama,
Apr. 9. 1934
” as “typus
♀
” and “
H. Hara,
Jul. 1932
” as “typus
♂
,” which are therefore
syntypes
(Art. 9.5 of the ICN,
McNeill
et al.
2012
). He also cited two additional specimens without designating them as a type, and hence they are
paratypes
(see Art. 9.6 Note
5 Ex.
6 of the ICN,
McNeill
et al.
2012
).
Toyoda (1981)
did not designate the
lectotype
since he cited both “
T. Tuyama
, 1934,
♀
” and “
H. Hara
, 1932,
♂
” as types. In TI, we found six duplicates of the former specimen and one sheet of the latter. In addition,
one female
specimen with an old “Typus” stamp (
H. Hara T133
,
28 June 1932
; TI [00517]) was found.Although this specimen was collected by H. Hara in 1932, it is not a type because its collecting month is different from that of Hara’s
syntype
(TI [00513]). Herein, three sheets (TI [00505], [00506], and [00518]) of duplicates of Tuyama’s
syntype
were labeled as
Procris boninensis
Tuyama
, but other sheets and Hara’s
syntype
were labeled as
P. laevigata
Blume. Of
the former three, we designated the specimen with a Japanese name in Tuyama’s handwriting (TI [00518]), which had already been pressed with an old stamp of “Typus,” as the
lectotype
. In addition, for
two paratypes
cited in the protologue, we confirmed five duplicates of “
H. Hattori
,
Aug. 9. 1905
,” of which one sheet is the same as the photo in the protologue. However, we could not find the other (“
T. Tuyama s.n.
,
Aug. 5. 1933
”) in TI or other herbaria.
