Synthochrysa montrouzieri ( Girard 1862 ) — Kimmins, 1936 , 1952 , 1953 ; Brooks & Barnard, 1990 . Apochrysa montrouzieri ( Girard 1862 ) .— Winterton & Brooks, 2002 . Common name . ‘Montrouzier’s delicate lacewing’. Diagnosis . Forewing with dark round spot midway along inner gradate series, otherwise slight markings only along inner gradate series and distally on ra-rp cross-vein; hind wing with small but distinct mark on pterostigma, lacking in forewing; forewing with three gradate series, hind wing with two gradate series, some irregular crossveins present between inner-most gradate series and middle gradate series; forewing RA area with RA-RP crossveins simple, lacking interconnecting cross-veins; basal half of both wings without irregular cross-veins connecting RP branches, only with inner gradate series extending to base of wing; inner gradate series of hind wing broadly curved, angled anteriorly at midpoint; end-twigging (forked veinlets) present only in distal half of posterior margin of both wings. Comments. Kimmins (1936) details the convoluted nomenclatural history of this species as follows. Girard (1862) originally described the species based on a manuscript name Hemerobius stigma , but indicates that there could be confusion with the Hemerobius stigmaticus Rambur , and suggests that H. montrouzieri would be a more appropriate name. Since the name is preoccupied by Hemerobius stigma Stephens (1836) , Kimmins (1936) states that the latter name ( H. montrouzieri Girard, 1862 ) should be adopted. Apochrysa montrouzieri is recorded from New Caledonia . The location of types of both H. stigma and H. montrouzieri is unknown.
