Hennemann, Frank H. & Conle, Oskar V., 2024, Studies on Neotropical Phasmatodea XXVI: Taxonomic review of Cladomorformia tax. n., a lineage of Diapheromerinae stick insects, with the descriptions of seven new genera and 41 new species (Phasmatodea: Occidophasmata: Diapheromerinae), Zootaxa 5444 (1), pp. 1-454 : 151

31. Phanocles subvolans ( Redtenbacher, 1908: 416) [ Bacteria ]. HT, ♂: Holotype; V. de Chiriqui, below 4.000 ft., Champion; 88; Godman-Salvin Coll. 1908.–168.; 19; B.C.A. Orth. II, Bacteria subvolans, Redt. ; BMNH(E) #844546 [NHMUK]. stat. rev., comb. n. ( Figs. 50B , 58K , 62G–J , 64A–C , 88G )

Remarks: This species was synonymised with Ph. ploiaria ( Westwood, 1859) in error by Shelford (1909: 263) and is here re-established (stat. rev.). It is a separate species, ♂♂ (the only sex known) differing from Ph. ploiaria by the shorter alae and very different shape of the anal segment. A description of the previously unknown ♀ and re-description of the ♂ are presented below.

Distribution: NE-Panama, Province Chiriquí, Valle de Chiriquí [NHMUK]; Panama, Province Colón, Canal Zone, Gatun [ANSP]; Panama, Province Panamá [ANSP].
