Labomimus antennatus View in CoL ; Hlaváč 2003b: 286 (synonymized with Labomimus heterocerus Raffray, 1882 View in CoL in Hlaváč 2003a: 93).

Type material examined. Pselaphodes antennatus : Lectotype (fixed by present designation; in BMNH): MALAYSIA: ♂ (left metatibia and metatarsus missing; Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 A), with eight labels ( Fig. 1 View FIGURE 1 B): ‘Quop, W. Sarawak, G. E. Bryant. 14. III. 14. (printed) / ♂ (printed) / H 81 (handwritten) / G. Bryant Coll. B. M. 1926—86. (printed) / Type (round handwritten label with a red rim) / Pselaphodes antennatus Type ♂ Bryant (handwritten) / PSELAPHODES antennatus BRYANT P. Hlaváč det. 2000 (specific name and author in handwritten) / Lectotype ♂, Pselaphodes antennatus Bryant , des. Z.-W. Yin 2015 (handwritten)’.

Lectotype designation. Bryant (1915: 299) described Pselaphodes antennatus based on the male sex only, but he did not mention the number of the specimens he examined nor did he explicitly fix a name-bearing type. With a possibility that other specimens may exist, the single male found in the BMNH is treated as a syntype. According to Article 74.7 of ICZN, the treatment in Hlaváč (2003b) of this male as the ‘holotype’ is considered a misuse of the term, and has no validation in type fixation. In order to ensure the stability of nomenclature and provide a unique name-bearing type for the name, we here designate this male as the lectotype (Recommendation 73F).

Date of synonymy. In his 2003 publication, Hlaváč (2003a: 93) mentioned that the name Labomimus antennatus was placed as a junior synonym of Labomimus heterocerus (Raffray) in a revision in press, to be published in the 2002 volume of the Bulletin de la Société entomologique de France. Later in 2003, the revision was published, but without this synonymy established, only with a new combination, by moving this species from Pselaphodes to Labomimus ( Hlaváč 2003b: 286) . Since the name Pselaphodes antennatus was listed under Labomimus heterocerus in Hlaváč 2003a, and the author’s intention in synonymizing these two names was made clear, the 2003a work is considered the correct publication in which the synonymy was first established.
