Comment:
There is a possible ♁
syntype
with identical data, but without a type label. A
lectotype
is here designated to ensure stability of Redtenbacher’s
unicolor
,
by selecting the specimen with a type label. This replaces the invalid
lectotype
designation of
Seow-Choen (2021: 418)
, as this author chose the specimen with wings open (but no data label). Seow-Choen made no reference to any data when discussing these
two specimens
. The former LT should now be regarded as just a possible PLT.
Valid name:
Marmessoidea rosea
(Fabricius, 1793)
