REMARKS:
Rondani (1862c: 143)
described both sexes of
Zeuxia parmensis
from an unspecified
number
of specimens that he had collected and that he had also received from
G. Mussino
and
J.R. Schiner. We
found
13 syntypes
in this study.
An
additional
four males
and
three females
in the
MZUF
, numbered “1854”, are not included in the type series because their labels are yellowish rather than the greenish color of Rondani’s original handwritten ones and are in a lower row in the Box, for which reason we treat them to be subsequent additions
