Euphoresia kassaiensis Moser, 1916: (type locality: “Kondué, Kassai"); Heuertz 1954: 32.

Material.

Ed. Luja / Kondué / Congo-Belge // Donateur 867a / Ed, Luja, / Lux[em]b[our]g V.1911 // Euphoresia / kassaiensis Mos. [handwritten by Moser] // 2351, 1♂.

Remarks.

In the last three cases, the true types were sent for identification by Henri Schouteden, who worked for the Royal Museum for Central Africa, Tervuren, Belgium ( Moser 1916: 233). Hence, all specimens preserved in the MNHNL are simply topotypes.
