" Occemya nitidula R. D."

A male of Zodion cinereum (Fabricius, 1794) . The specimen lacks the right legs, but otherwise it is very well preserved.

The specimen bears the following labels: (1) " O. / nitidula / coll. Big." [round, white label]; (2) " Occemya / nitidula R. D." [light­blue label].

This specimen was determined and labelled by Robineau­Desvoidy and can therefore be interpreted as a syntype of Occemya nitidula Robineau­Desvoidy, 1853: 133 ­134. Since this specimen appears to be the only known syntype of Occemya nitidula it is herewith designated lectotype and the following label has been added: " Lectotypus / Occemya nitidula / Robineau­Desvoidy, 1853 / des. Stuke & Clements, 2005" [red label, printed].

Chvála & Smith (1988) placed this species as a synonym of Thecophora atra (Fabricius, 1775) . However, on the basis of the present specimen Occemya nitidula Robineau­ Desvoidy, 1853 should be placed as a junior synonym of Zodion cinereum (Fabricius, 1794) [syn. nov.].
