Remarks

Three syntypes were found which agree with the description except for having 13-segmented antenna; although Kieffer says the antenna is 12-segmented, this may be explained by a12-13 being closely joined, giving the appearance of 12 segments. The holotype label and paratype labels are erroneous, as Kieffer did not designate a holotype; consequently, they are all syntypes. The specimen numbered “103” is mounted on a card and is entire; “97” is mounted on a point and has the head and one antenna mounted separately; “84” is mounted on a point and is entire. All three syntypes belong to Entomacis .
