Agrilus convergens Fisher View in CoL

= japanensis Obenberger, 1935 syn. nov.

Agrilus convergens Fisher, 1930: 72–73 View in CoL . Holotype by monotypy, ♀, USNM: “N. BORNEO, SAMAWANG, NR. SANDAKAN [p] jungle 15th [h] 1927 [p] \ TypeNo [p] 57431 [h] USNM [p] [red label] \ Agrilus convergens Fisher View in CoL ”.

Agrilus tripartitus japanensis Obenberger, 1935a: 170 View in CoL . Lectotype by Kurosawa (1989), ♀, NMPC: “Sumatra ou Borneo non Japon [h] \ Japan [p] \ TYPUS [p] [red label] \ Mus. Nat. Pragae Inv. [p] 26480 [h] [orange label] \ Agrilus tripartitus ssp. japanensis View in CoL m. Type [h] Det. Dr Obenberger [p]”. The exact number of syntypes is unknown.

Remarks. The original description of A. tripartitus japanensis Obenberger neither implies nor requires that there were syntypes. Kurosawa (1989: 191–192), by mentioning “the type”, validly fixed the lectotype (ICZN, Article 74.6). The original type locality “ Japan ” is presumably mistaken ( Kurosawa 1989).
