Achilia validicornisformis Franz, 1996: 117 fig. 66 (aedeagus).

Type material (17 ex.): CENTRAL CHILE: Región Los Lagos: Chiloé prov.: NHMW (coll. Franz); 1 ♂ (holotype); Chiloé Island, Chepu; 20.II.1990; T. Cekalovic. – NHMW (coll. Franz); 5 ♂ (4 without label of locality) and 11 ♀ (10 without label of locality) (paratypes); same data; T. Cekalovic .

Comments: We have examined the types of this species and found that all the specimens (holotype and paratypes) belong without doubt to Achilia larvata (Reitter, 1885), one of the species we recently revised (Sabella et al., 2017). Therefore we here place Achilia validicorniformis Franz, 1996 as a junior synonym of A. larvata (Reitter, 1885) (syn. nov.).
