Cratomorphus ovatus Gorham 1884: 271 View in CoL

Gorham (1884) examined only a single male specimen, which was also figured. We located a single specimen bearing both a red “type” label and a “Sp. figured” label. This specimen is therefore determined here to be the holotype specimen.Labels for the determined holotype specimen are as follows:“Type” “V. de Chiriqui,/ 4000-6000 ft. /Champion.” “Type./Sp. figured.” “B.C.A.Col.III.(2)./ Cratomorphus View in CoL /ovatus,/Gorham” “ Cratomorphus View in CoL /ovatus/ Gorh.” “NHMUK 013584673”. A red label is added with the following text: “ HOLOTYPE / Cratomorphus ovatus Gorham View in CoL /Determined by/Martin and Saxton 2020”.
