48. Culex dolichophyllus Clastrier, 1970c: 858 (M).

Holotype M: Forêt de Cabassou, [Island of] Cayenne, French Guiana (MNHP); coll. J. Clastrier; 19 May 1968; no. 3421-7.

Despite all of our efforts, the holotype of Cx. dolichophyllus was not found. Because the holotype (pinned male and microscope slide with the dissected genitalia) was returned to J. Clastrier in 1987, we consider that this specimen is probably misplaced in the MNHP.
