Cratomorphus altivolans Gorham, 1884 View in CoL

Cratomorphus altivolans Gorham 1884: 270 View in CoL

One specimen was located bearing a red “type” label. Gorham (1884) mentions only seeing a single specimen which he figured. The specimen located did not indicate if it was figured, however, due to confidence in the rest of the labels including those which are handwritten, we determine that this specimen is the holotype. Labels for the determined holotype specimen are as follows: “ ♂ ” “Type” “V. de Chiriqui,/ 2-3000 ft. /Champion.” “B.C.A.Col.III. (2)./ Cratomorphus View in CoL /altivolans/Gorham” “ Cratomorphus View in CoL /altivolans/Gorham.” “NHMUK 013584671”. A red label is added with the following text: “ HOLOTYPE / Cratomorphus altivolans Gorham View in CoL /Determined by/Martin and Saxton 2020”.
