( Figs. 400–401 )

Pycnomerus reversus Broun, 1912: 421 . Hudson 1923: 370. Hetschko 1930: 63. Maddison 2010: 426.

Type locality: Greymouth.

Broun number: 3226.

Remarks: Broun mentioned that he based this species on three specimens sent from Lewis. One specimen was found loose in the drawer and was subsequently re-glued by us to the appropriate elongate card. In order to stabilize this name, a lectotype and two paralectotypes are here designated from the material of Pycnomerus reversus .

Type material examined: Lectotype ( BMNH): card-mounted, “Type [round label with red border] // 3226 [in Broun’s hand] // New Zealand. [red underline] Broun Coll. Brit. Mus. 1922-482. // Greymouth. -Lewis- [in Broun’s hand] // Pycnomerus reversus . [in Broun’s hand]” . Paralectotype ( BMNH): mounted venter-up, “3226 [in Broun’s hand] // New Zealand. [red underline] Broun Coll. Brit. Mus. 1922-482. // Greymouth. -Lewis- [in Broun’s hand] / / Pycnomerus reversus . [in Broun’s hand]” . Paralectotype ( BMNH): “Greymouth. -Lewis- [in Broun’s hand] // 3226. [in Broun’s hand]” .
