Hollier, John, 2014, An annotated list of the Orthoptera (Insecta) species described by Adolf Nadig with an account of the type material housed in the Muséum d’histoire naturelle de Genève, Revue suisse de Zoologie 121 (3), pp. 401-414 : 406

formosanta bessae Nadig, 1989b: 213-215 [ Miramella ].

Italien, Piemonte, La Bessa. ♂ Holotype, 9 ♂ paratypes and 13 ♀ paratypes.

♂ Holotype with labels: “I Piemonte 84: 71 La Bessae (S. Biella), 250-300 m, 11.9.84 leg. Nadig ” [printed on white card]; “84: 71 No. 1 (♂), Zeichn. Penisva.” [typed on yellow paper]; “Mi. formos. bessae ssp. n. Nadig ♂ det. NADIG” [printed on white card with “♂” added by hand]; “HOLO-Typus” [printed on red card with “HOLO-” typed]. Specimen set with wings folded. There are 10 ♀ and 15 ♀ specimens with data corresponding to the original description labelled as paratypes (one ♀ labelled as allotype). It is not clear whether the number given in the description was erroneous or whether some of these individuals were identified later and are therefore not part of the type series. This subspecies is not included in OSF. Box Nadig 411.
