peringueyi Saussure, 1888a: 146-147 [ Batrachotettix ].

Africa meridionalis occidentalis, Terra Gricaensis (Griqualand) (Mus. Capense, leg. Peringuey). Unspecified number of Ƌ and ♀.

The original description, which treated both sexes, states that the type material was in the SAMC. It is possible that the single ♀ specimen placed under this name in the MHNG collection with the labels: “Peringuey, Cap 183” [printed on pink paper]; “Batrachot. Peringueyi, Afr. mer. Sss.” [handwritten on red paper]; “ Syntypus ” [printed on red paper], is a syntype since, although the locality is not that given in the description, the label may refer to the Cape Museum ( SAMC). Specimen set with wings spread. OSF states that there are syntypes in the SAMC. Box W 5 .
