Treatment

A valid species, Malkiatus bumastus (Konow, 1907) .

Type. Periclista bumasta Konow, 1907a: 493 . Holotype ♀, “ Sikkim ”. ( MNCN _ Ent 100191, MNCN Cat. Tipos Nº 8124, see http://dx.doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.754524). Type locality: India, Sikkim.

Discussion. Smith (2006) designated the type specimen as lectotype. Konow (1907a: 493) noted “Die Type befindet sich im Madrider Museum.” [translated: ‘The type is located in the Museum in Madrid’]. This is a clear indication that he had only one specimen in his hands.
